As part of our ‘Where in the world is Scotland?’ topic we found out about Charles Rennie Macintosh, an artist from Glasgow who was also an architect and designer.
We were inspired by his work and had a go at creating our own rose pictures which we completed just in time to take home on Valentine’s Day.

It is interesting to see how we all used colour and line a little differently, all with beautiful results.
We have been experimenting with a new way of doing homework where the pupils have more choice in deciding which homework tasks would be most beneficial to them.  Some of the options are best done little but often whilst other tasks take a bit longer so you might just choose one of this type to do during the week to fit around the other clubs and activities you enjoy doing.  Here is a sample of some of our ‘weekly treat’ tasks the pupils have chosen so far, I am very impressed with the time and effort they have put  into these tasks. Well done P4/5/6!
 
We have seen some ‘Brilliant Baking’, Terrific ‘Travel Bug’ journey planning, Smashing Roman shields, Magnificent Maths posters, Fantastic play-scripts and a Roman letter translated into Latin – wowzers!
