The children in primary 1 have enjoyed reading Julia Donaldson stories this term and making a fantastic Gruffalo display. Through these stories the children have learned about the pattern and rhyme of stories and how to develop a character. The children made up a new character for the book Room on the Broom. We learned about the role of an illustrator and an author and developed our love of reading by setting up a quiet reading tent in our classroom which the children named ‘the Julia Donaldson tent’!!! The children enjoyed making (and tasting) Gruffalo Crumble (apple crumble) and then we made our own recipe book using functional writing and sequencing skills.
Christmas
A massive well done to all of the Primary 1-3 pupils who performed in our Nativity play ‘Mend the Manger’.
We are lucky to have such talented little superstars in our school.
The Magic Castle
Primary 6W have worked very hard on their homework projects creating different types of castles. They also made up fact files and power points about Concentric, Stone Keep and Motte and Bailey Castles. They then presented them to the rest of the class.
We can’t wait to start the Magic Castle topic in January!
Christmas
The costumes are ready, the stage is set………could this be the best Nativity play yet?
The children in Primary 1, 1/2, 2 and 3 have been working so hard to produce this year’s Nativity Play, ‘Mend the Manger’.
We are so proud of all our little ‘shining stars’ in St Joseph’s Primary!
Cinderella Rockerfella
