Isabel, Matthew Carla had lots of fun making a dog house and Morgan had fun playing with the magnetic squares and triangles in golden time. Jack enjoyed learning about 3 d shapes in maths and says, “A 3d shape you can see all around you but a 2d shape is flat.” Carlos liked finding out about different lines in symmetry. P4 are feeling sad because Mrs Porteous is leaving and we will miss her but we hope that she will be very happy in her new job. We are sure that she will be proud of us because we won the Goblet of Good Manners this week. Mrs Balfour is very impressed with us.

The Week in P4/5
This week has been a very short and busy week. We once again enjoyed the National Youth Choir of Scotland and their very fun games and songs. We are very excited for what will come next! Katie thought the writing was very fun this week as we were writing our own set of instructions for George’s Marvelous Medicine. Ella Gordon was our Star Writer! Jenny from Niamh’s Brownie’s group came to join us for our P.E. lesson. (Jenny is a doll!) Liam had really good fun sorting very larger numbers. Chloe Bell and Hannah won our Dojo points for the week and Deano had an excellent week and won Star of the Week in assembly!
Bonjour! Guten tag!
Salut!
Today was European Languages Day. We celebrated it in style by using our mapping skills to identify countries, flags and capital cities.
We also had fun singing ‘Let it go’ but in 26 languages. Can you name them all?
Vowel House
Sounds work in P1b
The boys and girls have been busy working on using all of their set 1 sounds to begin to sound out words. The independent challenge this week was to pick a picture and use the coathanger sounds to try to make the word. Mrs Lloyd was very impressed at how well the children did! Take a look for yourself!
A busy week in P1a
This week, P1A have been learning all about the vowel house and the characters in the story.
Cye – There was an old man and he made the ‘ai’ sound.
Chloe – The donkey was making the ‘ee – or ‘ sound.
Charlie – There was a ghost and he made the ‘oo’ sound.
Jack M – The man made the ‘oa’ sound becuase he was scared of the ghost.
We also learnt the sight word ‘is’
Leah – I liked writing ‘is’.
Kayleigh – I liked painting ‘is’.
In maths, we learnt about one more and one less.
Cye – one more than 7 is 8
Fraser – One less than 10 is 9
Savannah – I liked matching the Dominos to the numbers.
Today is European Language Day, so we practised saying our names in French and we learnt to sing a song.
P1a have worked really hard at their activities and produced some super work!! well done P1a.
