The Primary 1 induction evening took place on Thursday the 6th of June.
Here is the Powerpoint that was used
Art in Nature inspired by Andy Goldsworthy – P3H AND P2/3
Check out our Natural Art inspired by the artist Andy Goldsworthy. We collected natural materials such as sticks, flowers and leaves. We did not pick living things as we are learning to look after and care for nature.
We worked in groups to create our own unique designs. We are very proud of what we created.
Angles in our Environment – P3H
Our topic in maths over the next few weeks will be Angles. This week we looked for right angles in our Environment. We found right angles all around us, including on our picnic bench, planters, windows and many more!
Then in pairs, using sticks we created our own squares and rectangles and then used cubes to show the right angles on our shapes.
P3 STEM Club
Last week at STEM club we had to create shelters using natural materials we could find in our school Forest garden. We were very creative and enjoyed sharing our designs!
The Rainforest – P3H
Here are some snapshots of our learning from our ‘Rainforest’ topic.
We have been learning about the different layers of the rainforest and created our own models for our homework project . Our challenge was to use only recyclable and reusable items! What creative and innovative designs – well done to everyone! We enjoyed sharing our models with our classmates and with parents at sharing the learning.
We have also been learning about deforestation! We wrote persuasive  letters to companies using palm oil to share our opinions and persuade them to stop!
We Created our ‘Party in the jungle’ Artwork for the art gallery which we are all very proud of!
Snapshots of our Learning – P3H
Another busy term full of fun and exciting learning in P3H!
Here are just some pictures of what we’ve been getting up to! In maths we have been learning all about fractions!
We enjoyed our whole school ‘This is me’ week. We enjoyed exploring and embracing our differences and learning all about others!
P2J Music
We have been learning about rhythm.
We have tapped a rhythm together. It was tricky keeping together!
We have kept the beat by tapping one after each other. We did very well and really enjoyed using the sticks.
P3H ‘Time Travellers’
Here are some photos from our ‘Time Travellers’ topic
We learned all about life in Dunblane in the past and how people lived.
We were very lucky to have a visit from Pam who used to work in the old Springbank Mill. Pam shared lots of interesting facts and stories with us. We also worked with P2/3 and learned to weave together which was lots of fun!
We learned about famous scots such as Robbie Burns and Charles Rennie Mackintosh who continue to inspire others today through their work in the past. We created our own Charles Rennie Mackintosh inspired artwork which we were very proud of.
P3H Our Learning Snapshots
Here are some snapshots of our learning over the past term.
In maths our topic has been time and we are learning to show quarter hours on a analogue and digital clock. We are now learning all about fractions!
We have also been writing fact files all about famous scots!
We have been enjoying learning about the history of Dunblane through our context of ‘Time Travellers’
P3/4W are Roman Soldiers!
This afternoon P3/4W worked together to make these Roman Spiers! It was tricky but we used our growth mindsets and encouraged each other. We were pleased with the results. Our spiers will be on display at our Roman museum during our next sharing the learning event.
