1st star: We enjoyed working in teams to make information posters about the Brain.

Wish: We are looking forward to filling each others’ buckets next week.
Many thanks to Gwen Lynch and her team for yet another wonderful float !
Also thanks to all the children, their families and staff who walked in pouring rain – you were just fantastic and we really appreciate your efforts.
I don’t think I have ever been so wet !!!
We have enjoyed doing stations in PE this week. The stations have included such things as hula hoops, football, hurdles and space hoppers. The children have had a great time experiencing each one and have asked that they do the same for PE next week. They worked well in their teams and ensured that they followed the instructions and rules for each game.
Primary 3 have been involved in the Roots of Empathy programme. This programme allows children to see the developmental stages of a baby and identify what their needs and wants are at each stage.
We celebrated the end of the programme by having a mini celebration with baby Sophie in our class. We have seen her grow and develop over the year and have loved having her in our class.
As part of our theme on animals around the world we have been working on climate and how if affects different habitats. We discussed why climate change is happening and how we can take steps to reduce the pollution. In groups we created posters encouraging people to stop climate change by recycling, walking instead of taking the car and turning off the tv when it’s not being watched!
As part of our animals around the world topic, P3 and P4/3 got to visit some lambs yesterday that had come in to visit P1. We all loved how soft they felt and were keen to stroke them. We are learning about animals and habitats in the different continents and this week have been learning about Scottish native animals.
We have just started our topic on Animals around the World. So far we have identified the major continents and oceans of the world and have classified animals into groups. We have also investigated animal habitats all over the world.
For writing we thought it would be great fun to do a practical activity before we started our writing. We made an animal face sandwich. After we made our sandwich we wrote instructions to show how we made it.
Don’t they look amazing!! The children were very proud of their work.
As part of our animals around the world topic, we were completing a jigsaw of the continents of the world. When complete, we wrote the names of the continents and the names of the oceans.
P3 had a lot of fun today doing phonics in the sun. We were practising writing the words from our word walls and then reading them to each other.
