Happy New Year !
In our usual Primary 7 way, we have hit the ground running for our new term. We started our WWII topic, please be prepared to be interviewed by our intrepid investigative journalists as they research their family involvement and memories of the war. We have issued topic homework. Pupils should select and complete at least one activity from each column. These tasks should be completed by the 24th March. Pupils should be prepared to present them in class.
We launched our Literacy Circle groups, with each pupil selecting their own novel from a choice of books all relating to WWII. It is wonderful to see such enthusiasm in Primary 7 with regards to their novels. Each group has been assigned a task from their literacy circle packs and should have it ready for their literacy circle meeting on Thursday.
We began learning the musical score for our senior show this week, auditions will follow soon.
In numeracy we are continuing to focus on fractions, decimals and percentages and we are studying angles in math sessions.
All pupils have now chosen their Scottish poems for our Scottish Assembly. Two pupils from each class will be selected to recite their poems at the assembly but all pupils have the opportunity to present in front of their class.
