We celebrated World Book Day by dressing up as a character from a book and/or sharing our favourite books with others.  We focused on the author of Horrid Henry, Francesca Simon and did some fun activities related to her books.

Today, 3 students from City of Glasgow College, visited us and took us through some fun warm up and football skills.  Even those of us who don’t particularly love football enjoyed taking part.

In Health we have been looking at carbohydrates and beginning to understand that this is the food group that gives use energy.  We decided to make a healthy snack that gave us energy.  Whilst we enjoyed making them, not everyone was convinced about the taste!

Today we listened to the author, Emily Mackenzie, read her story ‘There’s broccoli in my ice-cream’.  Afterwards, we tried some broccoli along with sweetcorn, green beans, mango, pineapple and blueberries.  We talked about which were our favourite and which ones we did not particularly enjoy.  Well done to everyone who tried something new today!

Last week, we filled our class sticker reward chart.  We were given a few rewards to choose from such as No Homework, A visit to the park and an extra playtime but the majority decided to vote for watching a movie in class.  So, this Friday (15th) everyone is welcome to bring in any DVDs they wish (rated Universal only) and the class will vote and watch that day.

Well done everyone for working hard to fill our chart.  I hope you enjoy your reward!

P3 had fun making and decorating chocolate dipped apples.  We look forward to showing off our masterpieces at home and writing about the steps we took to make them!

Dear P3 Parents and children

Welcome to our P3 Blog!  The Blog is an excellent way to connect home and school by allowing you to:

• be kept updated on life in class
• view photos of the children at work and taking part in special events in school
• access a variety of maths, language and topic games to further enhance learning at home (I can add more if requested)
• ask a question about homework or any other general queries

I hope you enjoy using the Blog and we look forward to sharing what we do.

Kind regards

Mrs Duffy

Just to say thanks so much for all my beautiful gifts.  They are very much appreciated.

I hope you all have a fabulous summer and wish you all the best for P6.

Mrs Duffy
