Happy Halloween P2! You all looked amazing.

Super photos P5 and fab pumpkins!

Friday 29th October was a day of fun Halloween themed activities in P7A complete with:

• Costumes
• Halloween themed Pixel Art Maths activity
• Pumpkin/Witch/Frankenstein Art task
• Covid friendly ‘dooking’ for apples
• Trick or Treat Treasure map game
• Halloween Trivia Kahoot
• And let’s not forget the Treats!
  The upper stages teachers got into the spirit and dressed up as characters from the Teletubbies! They certainly brightened up a dreary, wet day!

That was so fun

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

What a fast week it has been.
P2 have been very busy

Literacy
We have started exploring our new Pm reading programme exploring a non fiction book and  what a contents page is.

In writing we have started to explore the text type recount. We recounted an activity we all do, the process of brushing our teeth.

Numeracy and Maths

This week we began exploring the 2 times table, we investigated our knowledge of doubles and counting in two’s to support our understanding. We found  some very catchy songs to help

In maths  volume was a great hit, filling different containers with water beads. We discussed full, half full and empty alongside how the quantity of ‘cups’ represented the volume of the container.

Topic
This term we are exploring day and night. We started discussing what we know about day and night, alongside the differences we see and experience from day and night. Next week we shall begin investigating the process of how day and night happens.

Halloween

The class had great fun today for Halloween, playing literacy and numeracy game with a Halloween theme, dancing, selfies and crafts. There were amazing costumes today and lots of excitement. I hope you all have an amazing Halloween weekend. Stay safe and have fun.

We were amazed by all the fantastic pumpkins we saw on display in the school this week! Well done everyone !

We had lots of fun at our Hallowe’en party. We played some games, heard a story about ,”Pumpkin soup” by Helen Cooper and we made a little lantern and designed our own mask.

Thank you to Mrs Ward, Mrs Hope and Mrs Istephan for giving us our yummy Hallowe’en snacks. These went down a treat!

Another huge thank you to the P7 Prefects who looked after us at playtime and lunchtime during our indoor breaks. You worked hard to keep us entertained and active!

Happy Hallowe’en everyone!

P6/7 had a super spooky day today.

We had dancing, dooking for apples, Kahoot! quizzes, super sour sweets, party games and food!

Mrs Smith was very impressed by all the efforts of the children in class.

Who can you spot in the photo below?

We had a fang-tastic Halloween themed day today where we were allowed to dress up, played fun games, dooked for apples and made marshmallow monsters! A monstrously good time was had by all!

We had a spooky themed activity morning today! We did quizzes, puzzles, colouring, apple dooking and watched ‘Room on the Broom’. We took home our collage monsters and painted pumpkin pictures. The costumes were fabulous!

Other learning this week includes HWB; thinking about the qualities of a friend, grammar; identifying past tense and past continuous tense verbs and maths; compass points and turns.
We are learning the features of recount writing and looked at time and sequence words. Our task was to work in a group and sort words into the type of time and sequence group they were from. We did really well and learned some new words such as ‘initially’ and ‘subsequently’.

We are reading the novel ‘Catscape’ by Mike Nicholson and we made a ‘Missing Cat’ poster.

Our topic is out of this world – the Solar System – and we learned what the different planets are made from.

Primary 7B enjoyed a morning of Halloween quizzes, a Kahooot, snacks and arts and crafts. Have a spooky weekend everyone!

A huge congratulations to our P4-7 pumpkin winner, Evan. What a fantastic pumpkin idea!
