Term 3 Holistic Assessment
Festivals and Celebrations
P5-7 are coming close to the end of this term’s learning theme of ‘Festivals and Celebrations’. It’s a hive of activity now as they apply all the skills and knowledge they have learned to complete a holistic assessment. We planned the assessment together and the pupils are all devising advertising campaigns to promote a music festival they have created.
Posters have been designed…
Radio jingles have been written…
TV ads have been scripted….
Props are being made ready for filming!
Enjoy……..there are certainly a few jingles that will stick in my head!
Way to Go Winners
Nathan got a double whammy at celebrating success time this week. He got a Homework Award for his effort and content and also bagged Dojo Champ. Great job Nathan. 
The whole of the big class also got recognition for their fabulous work in writing books for their reading buddies in the wee class. All staff were super impressed with their efforts.
Achievements
Well done to Tegwen, Oliver and Martha, who all received certificates at this weeks assembly.
The big class have been working on a music festival project and Tegwen’s group work and Oliver’s problem solving during this project we recognised.
Martha was the Big Class’ Dojo champ.

The end of every day is teacher story time. From children’s classics, such as Treasure Island, to modern favourites, like Harry Potter.
The big class are authors and illustrators!
The big class in @FishertonPS are working their socks off to meet their deadline of Friday. They are creating new picture books for their wee class #readingbuddies. All have a theme or message to help their little buddies learn about life. @WorldBookDayUK pic.twitter.com/HgeEjW82lX

Happy New Year – 2018 – Year of the Dog
As part of our Festivals and celebrations topic we investigated some of the traditions of Chinese New Year. We discussed the similarities and differences to some of the celebrations we have in Scotland and with our families.
We enjoyed the story of Chinese New Year and why the celebrations include fire, loud noises and the colour red.

Coaching for the swimming gala will take place on Wednesdays at 3.30pm at Maybole Pool. Sessions will be coached by Janey McCreath .
