My huge apologies as I have used the wrong term in the Literacy task! When using the thesaurus, the pupils should be looking for synonyms, not antonyms!
I have corrected the homework sheet and attached again.
Many thanks,
Mrs J.

P3/4 Home Learning
Please find attached the home learning task sheet. A big priority is for the children to learn their lines for the show, without relying upon their script. If you have any questions, please come see me at the end of the day or telephone the school.
Also attached it the suggested costume list. This is just a guideline so be as creative as you wish to be! If anyone is having difficulty sourcing parts of their costume then please let me know ASAP so we can ensure every child has a costume.
Remember, tickets are available to purchase from the school office.
Many thanks, Mrs J.
P3/4 Assembly Feedback
After our assembly this morning, we worked with a partner to assess ourselves using 2 stars and a wish. The following is our thoughts:
Ross: Try not to stumble on easy words
Jonah: Everyone spoke clearly.
Summer & Marcus: Dances went well because no one had to remind each other of their moves.
Isla: We did not need prompting when to speak our lines.
Alex & Charlie: Next time, I would like to know my lines off by heart.
Susan & Olivia: When using the microphone, everyone needs to remember to speak loud enough in to it so they can be heard properly.
Tilly, Lilly & Isaac: Most people had good body language because they were not fidgeting or sitting slumped. Everyone needs to remember to stay focused and not play with their script.
Cameron: Most people knew their lines off by heart.
Dylan: Next time, I will try to remember who I follow on from before I speak so that I do not need to check with my teacher.
Quinn: No body needed prompting for their lines from Mrs Johnston.
Finn & Grant: Some of us used eye contact to engage with our audience.
Samuel: Everyone needs to remember not to whisper to their elbow partner during our performance.
Martin: We showed we enjoyed presenting our assembly by smiling.
Alison, Libby & Layla: Everyone spoke confidently.
Ski Success
Congratulations to Martin, Marcus and Theo who came in 1st, 2nd and 3rd at their most recent Ski competition.
The team dual slalom on Friday was also pretty close with Torphichen A winning all of their races and so finishing with 27 points whilst Low Port took silver with 25 points and Torphichen B bronze with 23 points.
Sporting Success
Congratulations to Merryn who has won 10 medals at the Dwarf Games.
There was a whopping 225 Athletes from all over Great Britain who took part in the 2019 Games and Merryn was in the older age group, under 11 for athletics, juniors for team sport & under 10 for swimming. She came home with 4 Golds in 25M butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke & freestyle & was also awarded a special bronze medal for being the closest time to Ellie Simmonds at her age. She also received Bronze for 60M & 40M Sprint, Silver for Shott Putt & 400M cycle & Silver for Hockey.
Her training will continue as she would like to go to the World Games in Germany 2021.
