Primary p5/6/7 have been taking part in different activities to develop their understanding of place value over the last week. They have been learning to read and write up to nine digit numbers.  They have been learning to add and subtract powers of ten and they have been learning to compare and order numbers. They have learned a lot and have had lots of fun doing so!

• Primary 3/4/5 enjoyed learning to say colours in Scottish Gaelic. They played games where they had to listen for the word in Gaelic then run to the flash card  of that colour. They also rolled a dice and had to say which colour they had rolled in Gaelic. They also showed that they could read and understand the words for colours in Gaelic.  The pupils were very enthusiastic and enjoyed revising the vocabulary.

Primary 1 and 2 were learning to say colours in Scottish Gaelic on Friday. We played some games where the pupils had to listen to the word in Gaelic then run to the correct coloured cone. We rolled a coloured dice and the pupils had to say in Gaelic  which colour they had rolled. They had great fun and enjoyed learning the new Gaelic vocabulary.

We had a lovely first day back in primary 5/6/7. The pupils took part in some art activities and created some poems about themselves.

Primary 6 and 7 enjoyed a visit from Maegan to complete her quiz about star signs today.  Well done Maegan!

Primary 6 and 7 have been learning to find equivalent fractions and to simplify fractions.  We worked in pairs to find equivalent fractions and drew pictures to illustrate each fraction.

Aaron Sloan visited us on Friday for some outdoor learning. We loved the games, especially Dodgeball!
