On Tuesday 26th the boys and girls of P7 joined all the other local schools at Craigswood Sports Centre . They participated in a sportshall athletic festival which involved 10 different activities. All children put 100% effort into all the events and had a great time.
Day: November 29, 2019
P7 Times Table Challenge
Throughout the month the children have been practising the 6, 7, 8 and 9 times table. Each week I (Mrs Dobbie) have challenged them to a times table test. All the children did their best to beat me and on 2 out of the 4 occasions I was too good for them. In the 8 times table test I made a mistake and was beaten to the post and on the 9 times table I missed out an answer, easy done. I would like to congratulate everyone for the effort they put in.
The tables challenges will continue with an expectation for all children to improve on their previous results.
Keep practising.
P7 Celebrating Difference
The children have continued to learn how to be assertive by being a ‘positive bystander’. This is when they observe an unfair situation and choose to say or do something about it rather than watch it unfold and / or walk away.
Another busy week in Primary 3
We have been practising our songs for the Christmas Nativity. We are singing “It’s A Baby”, and we have had a practise on the stage. We will be performing for parents and friends in December. (Roman, Ryley & Erin)
We have been learning to recognise the ‘igh’ ‘ue’ and ‘ch’ words. We have been playing a game and we have done a crossword and a wordsearch. (Lewis)
We enjoy reading with our friends.
We have been counting forwards and backwards in 10’s and 100’s. (Summer) We have been making number grids. (Olivia)

NEWS!
We have just discovered that we are the class with the winning number of pegs this week! We are very excited.
Deans Den
It has been another busy week in Deans Den. We continue to work on our listening skills and being kind and caring to others. This week we learned more about using the golden words, such as please, thank you, pardon me, excuse me and sorry. I hope the children continue to use these words at home.
We have been working together with P1-3 children learning the songs and actions for the Nativity. It is hard work remembering all the new words, but with support and encouragement we will do it!!
