P2M Jupiter Artland

P2M visited Jupiter Artland last week and we really enjoyed our learning. We learned about the stories behind many of the sculptures and we had opportunities to be very creative, especially when we made our own aliens. This was a fantastic way to start our new topic “The Enchanted Woodland.”

Article 13: We have the right to find out things and share what we think with others.

Article 29: We have the right to develop our talents and abilities.

This was when we danced like the white building. We made up our own dances to  match all the patterns. We thought one side looked like a house and the other side looked like a castle.

This was a huge sculpture that some of us thought was a huge basketball net. We used our learning in Science to talk about which material we thought was used to make the sculpture.

It was so much fun walking up to the top of the grass hills. We could see the “Love Bomb” from the top which we found very exciting. Then we carefully walked back down while Miss Marra took a photo of the beautiful view.  We learned that the gardeners have to work very hard to cut the grass and keep this area neat. We think they do an amazing job.

It was very exciting using our imagination to talk about what we thought could be at the bottom of the hole in this sculpture. Hollie Mc thought the hole might take her to see her family in Australia. It was interesting to hear all our different ideas and we would like to explore this further in class.

P6A Democracy and Parliament.

We have started to research the main political parties in the U.K. and Scotland, discussing Scotland’s devolved powers and researching the features of democracy.

Watch out for some of our manifestos, flyers, speeches and persuasive language;  we will be holding our own P6A elections! After watching some party political broadcasts, we are going to make our own! We formed and named the following parties:

The Scottish Considerate Party; The Scottish Youth Party (SYP); Scottish Wildlife Party (SWP); Scottish Violet Party (SVP); Save the Ocean Party (STO).

The parties are yet to appoint leaders, stay tuned for the announcement of our election date, party policies and voting papers. Make your vote count!

P1 Learning

Everyone in P1 has been having fun in our Block Play area.   These are just a few of our super creations!   We can plan our construction before we start to build and have been very good at collaborating with our friends.

P5C Assembly

Well done to P5C for their great efforts in this morning’s Rainforest Assembly. It’s a very busy time in school at the moment, so everyone did really well to practise their lines and remember what they should be doing and when. A huge ‘Thank You’ also to Mrs McBirnie for her amazing efforts – she certainly made you all look fabulous! Well done, P5C.
