You should now have your book bags at home. Primary 2 have been enjoying these books this week and will have some homework tasks linked to them next week. Although there are a variety of tasks to choose from we do not expect them all to be done! We have done a variety of activities including making crocodile masks which the children were keen to wear!

Benny and Barney Bear the bedtime story bears have started their visits to many of your homes. We have already had some super suggestions for recommended books and have enjoyed reading them in class. Keep an eye out for the bears in the school bag over the coming weeks.

Primary 7 are reading Kensuke’s Kingdom by Michael Morpurgo.  In Chapter 4, the two main characters meet for the first time and both feel very differently about it!  We highlighted parts of the text which gave us clues about how the characters might be feeling then put this into a Venn diagram.

We then used this information to write what the character’s might be saying ‘in their heads’.

We also created some abstract art to show the various emotions the characters might be feeling and explained how our choice and use of colour linked to the emotions of the characters.

All of this helped us to really analyse the text at a key point in the story…we can’t wait to see what happens next with these two characters!

Primary 2 has been busy this week reading lots of different books. Some parents have also been involved coming into class to read to us. On Monday Christina’s mum read ‘Sharing a shell and ‘We’re going on a bear hunt’. Afterwards we made some super story maps. Later in the week Lucas’s mum came in and read ‘Do not open this book’ and ‘This book just ate my dog’.

We enjoyed a Special Eric time today. We got our blankets and cushions and relaxed while reading some books. @AttainRen

Today we read ‘One Button Benny’ by Alan Windram.  We loved using 2D shapes to make a robot. We also designed our own front covers. @AttainRen

The Primary 3 elves have been working hard to make special Reindeer food to sell at the Wallace Christmas Fayre. Put it on your lawn on Xmas Eve to guide the reindeer to your house! We will be selling it for 50p. A perfect little addition to a Christmas Eve box!

Primary 1 enjoyed listening to ‘Eric Makes a Splash’ by Emily McKenzie on Wednesday. We met our very own panda in class too! @AttainRen
