Over the last few weeks we have been learning football skills on Fridays with coach Miss Macdonald. We will get a chance to show what we have learned next Tuesday as we will be participating in a Football Tournament. We are very excited and looking forward to this event!
This week we have been writing acrostic poems about our lovely mums and used our folding skills to make origami tulips to decorate our Mother’s Day cards.

This week in Primary 5 we have been rehearsing for our performance of Cinderella Rockerfella. In maths we have been using coordinates and creating our own compass patterns. In social studies we have made a Titanic timeline with the eight main events that took place when it was sinking. We have also been using our art and technology skills to make ‘Titanic in a shoebox’. We are trying to put lots of detail into our room designs. In RME we organised our own puppet shows of the Passover story. It was really fun to do. We have been presenting our knowledge of rights respecting schools in our rocket display.

Comments Off on Happy Mother’s Day from Primary 1
Well, Primary One finished the week making the most beautiful ‘Mother’s Day’ cards that I have ever seen!
But let’s back up a wee bit and look at earlier in the week. The class had the privilege of having Mrs Millar and Mrs Roy to teach them for a day and a half while I was working on our Rights Respecting initiative. Both teachers reported that the pupils were exemplary which made me very happy and proud.
We learned how to sing ‘Frere Jacques’ in a round and to say ‘head, nose and ears’ in French and Spanish!
Our RO assembly was great reminding us all about working towards our goals and never giving up!
So, overall, it has been another fab week in P1 and we are all very excited about the last week of term and learning some new and interesting things.
Have a nice weekend everyone and…
‘Happy Mother’s Day’!

Every Monday afternoon Mrs Poynter teaches us important musical skills such as how to keep a steady pulse, the notes on the scale (solfa) and to sing in harmony. Today we were joined by three teachers from a music school in the Hague. They were very impressed with our learning and enjoyed joining in with one of our musical games.
On Friday we all shared different aspects of our learning at our assembly. We demonstrated our learning in: French, Music, Art, Science, Maths and in Language. We sang a beautiful Spring Song to finish.

We have been learning more about transport. We made a wall display to show lots of different types of transport. We found out that the first ever car was made in 1888. It didn’t have a roof or windows and it only had 3 wheels. It didn’t have seatbelts. We are really enjoying rotations in maths with Miss Kelly – we do lots of different activities to learn number skills. We work individually, in pairs and in small groups. It’s great to hear everyone’s ideas and strategies.

A big congratultions to Rose Harvey and Sophie Shepherd who have been selected to play for the Scottish National Under 11 squad.
Both girls have been training through the Basketball Scotland Future Starz programme since October 2012. During this time, they have had to train extremely hard, participate in trials and play lots of games in order to achieve selection.
A very big well done to both of you! Keep up all your fantastic work!

This week we have been finding out what Romans and Caledonians ate and compared this to what we eat today. We found out that Romans liked to eat stuffed snails, peacock brains and dormice! They used honey to sweeten food. Caledonians also used honey. They ate porridge and meat such as pork and beef We wrote down the foods that we like to eat. Pizza was a Primary 3 favourite!

This week in P7 we have been doing our CEM Quizzes. In Maths, we prepared for our general maths quiz by doing revision booklets. We all worked hard and tried our best but we are glad that they are now all finished!
In Literacy, we watched clips of story starters. We then picked the one we wanted to write about and then we continued the story. We planned our stories before we started and thought carefully about ambitious vocabulary, connectives, punctuation and openers we could include.
We have also been busy practising our school show. It is now coming together as people are more familiar with their lines and song words. We can’t wait to dazzle the audience in a few weeks time!

We recently performed our Titanic assembly for our parents and all of the other classes in the school. We received wonderful comments soon after from Primary 2/1 saying that they were impressed that we knew all of our words. They said that they thought the assembly was fantastic!
In art we have represented the story of the Titanic using portholes with pictures of the journey. We have also been drawing and painting pictures of the Titanic.
