P6 have had a great first week back.  We have been to West Lothian Collage. This week we were doing Athletics which was our last activity. We were so sad. We have included photo from our rugby week so that you can see how much fun it really was!

We also started a new topic, WWII. Amber thought that WWII was exciting to start and can’t wait to find out more about WWII. Abby thought that WWII was very interesting and can’t wait to find out more about Adolf Hitler.

We were finishing our old topic our world! This has been great. Isra thought that our world topic was amazing! We talked about our holidays which sounded great. We all can’t wait for June because for good girls and boys they are getting a fun day!!

We are getting ready for P7 next year. Erin says that getting ready for P7 is exciting, scary and it feels like just yesterday we were in P1. Zoe thinks it is exciting and scary.

It was a bit of a shock to the system being back to school this week- setting the alarm, getting up earlier to come to school and getting back into the learning groove. .  Leah enjoys our check ins/ outs in class where we talk about how we are feeling and what we have been doing.

We finished off the science work connected with the ‘Our World’ topic. Leon said that he enjoyed learning about the different types of rocks that we have on Earth and Sonny brought in some of his dad’s rock collection from home. Jack really enjoyed making the rock posters because you learned about the different rocks that you see in everyday life but don’t know about. Did you know that slate is a type of metamorphic rock?

Joshua found the division work in maths really satisfying. He said, “I really liked doing the great big division sum. It was easy when you knew how to do it.” Shannon thought that this work was fun and challenging too.  Caitlin liked our Countdown warm up in writing where we had to use the letters to make a word. ‘It was a good way to warm up and it was fun. The teachers always make our learning fun.’ Hannah- Beth said the she enjoyed writing ‘Into the Future’  because it makes you think about how you feel about going to High School

We are looking forward to starting our WW2 topic next week, especially Jak who is really keen to get going.

We have had an exciting week in P1b this week.  We had a visit from the Friendly Dragon.  He has asked us to help him rebuild Fairyland.  We will let you know what we have been doing to help him each week.

This week has been really busy. Mackenzie said he has had lots of fun.  Caiden enjoyed learning another new sound this week.  Oskar has enjoyed seeing his friends again after the holidays.  They have had lots of fun playing together.  Tiana had fun drawing the Friendly Dragon after our special visit.

Next week we look forward to starting to help rebuild Fairyland.
