Today in Literacy, Primary 4 enjoyed getting our new reading books then explored the text and characters in each story. It was also lovely to see lots good handwriting and spelling in class today. We even earned dojo’s for trying hard with layout, presentation and taking care with joined up writing. I was super impressed! ✏️ 😃
Amazingly, the sun came out in the afternoon and we got to enjoy our daily mile in the sunshine. ☀️
Today has been a very exciting day for us all and it’s been wonderful to have the children back in class! I have missed your smiles and stories so much.
Our focus for Health and Wellbeing today was Resilience – creating our Trees of life that show our skills and values as well as our hopes and dreams for the future. We also designed our Spring bookmarks ready for our new reading books this week.
Reminder: Full water bottles everyday please as we cannot use the water fountain due to COVID-19 restrictions.
See you tomorrow, boys and girls! 🙂
Today we thoroughly enjoyed watching our School Nativity. While, this year has not been our usual type of nativity show, the children took part in rehearsals, practised their action and mime and recorded a fantastic British Sign Language performance on the day of filming. Excellent effort boys and girls! 🌟
Today we even got to enjoy a chocolate lollipop, thanks, Miss Ferguson! 😍

Today we enjoyed a fun day of festive activities, watched the ‘Aladdin’ Pantomime and took part in our Christmas quiz. OH YES WE DID!! 🎭🎟😀 We even got a tasty ice cream to eat while we watched. It was delicious! 🍦
This morning we practised our BSL song ‘Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas’ for our nativity then filmed it with Mr Green. Can you believe we only needed two take? Boys and girls, you were tremendous! 😀
Later on, we designed and created our 3D Christmas cards for someone special and added some sparkle. 🎄
In the afternoon we had a different sort of party day with socially distant games with prizes, tasty treats then a virtual elf visit. 🧁
The elf knew all about Woodlands and how well we have been working which was a great surprise! We even got a surprise gift to take home too. Despite the restrictions, we still made it as fun as possible while staying safe. 😀
Have a relaxing weekend and I will see you on Monday and Tuesday for our last days of term in 2020. 🎄

Today we managed to miss the rain and got to enjoy some outdoor time for Daily Mile. We are trying to improve our physical fitness by walking/jogging/sprinting faster and doing more laps. During this time, children are encouraged to take part in races or fitness games. In addition to this, we practised our song actions then gave Mr Green a sneak peek into how good our BSL actions look.

Yesterday, Primary 4 loved another week of outdoor P.E developing our balls skills playing football. We practised our drills, passing and receiving the ball to our partner then set up our gates to practise movement with dribbling. Fabulous Football! ⚽️
As part of our topic this afternoon, learning about Christmas around the world, we discussed our own Christmas traditions and focused on how Christmas is celebrated in other countries. Our next step is to research a country of our choice and make comparisons. Well done boys and girls! 🎄
Well, today has been interesting and exciting! We have woken up to the sight of bright white snow on the ground! ❄️😮
All of the boys and girls have enjoyed a fun-filled day of Big Writing, using the snow as a stimulus for writing. Our ‘It’s a Snow Day!’ stories include: setting, characters and plot and we have planning for VCOP.
Happy Thursday from Primary 4! ☃️😁
