Primary 3/4 have been very busy recently re-creating the Easter Story.
They have designed and painted the scenery and props. They have written the scripts and have planned and organised their groups and delegated who was going to do what in the project. They have directed and filmed a short stop frame animation, and are delighted to share it.
You can view their animation here:

What a fantastic effort P3/4 – well done!
We are focusing on internet safety this week in school.
There are lots of resources available from the saferinternetday.org.uk website
including:
1) Learn more and get involved – Safer Internet Day 2022
5) Organisations and Resources for Parents and Carers
For the classes who are using Teams for their online learning, it is important to upload your work into your own folder. Your teacher will be able to see your progress and give you feedback.
If you are unsure how to upload your work onto Teams, here is a simple ‘how to’ guide.
Uploading Work to Teams for Pupils
If you are still having problems, please contact the school.
This week has been another very busy week. The children have been learning to use ICT to present information. They have collaborated to share their ideas about what they have been learning this week, and have written up their usual reflection sheet. 
They are now extending their learning to incorporate ICT to share their ideas with a wider audience. They have been working with a partner to type up their ideas. We hope you enjoy reading their work.

On Thursday 26th September, Primary 3 are hosting a learning breakfast. We would like to share breakfast with parents and carers from 9am in the dinner hall, then we will visit our class. 
We will show you how we access our school blog, and education city games. We hope you are able to join us.
This week we have started to learn about coding in ICT. We were programming simple instructions to get the angry bird to go and get the pig. “It was amazing.” “It was awesome”. Everyone was able to work at their own pace and we all had fun.
Maths
We have been learning about friendly numbers, such as 10 or 5 and we have been using them in our number talks to help us to add 2 digit numbers. We also learned to play a new game.
Road Safety Week
It is Road Safety Week this week, and we have been looking at the Green Cross Code and writing about how to cross the road safely. We were sequencing instructions in the correct order.
As part of our senses topic, we have been focusing on the sense of hearing this week. We have been on outdoor and indoor sound walks and we even managed to play sound bingo.
One of the highlights of the day today was using the comic life program on the laptops to make a comic strip. We used some of the photographs we took when we made the peach crumble last week. Although we need to finish off our comics, the children were very enthusiastic and commented “it was great fun” “it was hard at first” “can we do this again?”.
Our next step will be to add speech bubbles to our comic pages.
Primary 6 have been using an online resource where the teacher can make up their own quiz based on various subject areas that the pupils can then access on a laptop. This week we have used one to test our times tables knowledge. We really enjoyed this and were able to challenge ourselves! We look forward to using this resource in other curricular areas.
