Our little elves have been working hard! The classes have been extremely busy this week making and advertising their products and games for the Christmas fayre next Friday (30th). Everything is coming together and we are finalising our floats, prizes and layout of the stalls next week. We have our expected profits calculated so we hope to see you all there to support us!
In Maths we have been continuing to look at negative and positive integers and relating this to everyday life, such as in temperatures and bank accounts. We even spotted the relationship we have with negative integers at the moment, as we are borrowing money for the floats for our school fayre enterprise! Fingers crossed we will have successful stalls and games at the fayre and will make lots of positive profit.
The St Andrews Day assembly is fast approaching and this year the Primary 7s will be singing a new song for you all. We have been dedicating time to learn Auld Lang Syne, and not the version you sing at New Year! We are learning the original version which is much slower and sweeter. Ask your children to teach you it!
In light of Book Week Scotland, we had a fantastic, informative session at Carmondean Library yesterday. We were learning about different types of books, how books are shelved and how to apply for a library card (which your child has been given a letter about). We hope this has encouraged the children to visit the library more and share their experience with those at home.
