P7 and P7/6 Remote and Classroom Learning
Can we start by saying how impressed we have been with both P7 and P7/6 during their Remote and Classroom Learning. Really engaging with every task and demonstrating great perseverance and resilience. We are very proud of your efforts. Last week we covered a wide range of outcomes and activities including
- What features and organisation should be used to create an effective procedure.
- How to find the Perimeter of a shape and linking these skills to using Maths in an everyday context.
- A variety of Science experiments which ranged from designing your own catapult to trying to make cheese!
- Scottish Tourism Task including producing a Powerpoint to attract tourists to Scotland and creating an exposition to encourage a family member to visit.
- Staying with our Scottish theme we used Oor Wullie as a springboard for a variety of Literacy activities.
- Utilising our ICT skills to research the effects Smoking can have on the body.
It was also really impressive to see how so many of the class linked their science tasks to the work we have been doing on procedures when completing their experiment. Also using features of an exposition when creating the persuasive text in their Social Subjects activities. It is great to see the children using their learning across all curricular areas. Keep up the hard work, you have been brilliant.
Primary 2/1 Remote and Classroom learning
Well done Primary 2/1 on a super effort on Seesaw and in the classroom. Primary 1s, in literacy, we have been learning the sh, ch and th sounds and you’ve done a fantastic job on this. In numeracy you’ve been learning about measure and ordering from shortest to longest and measuring using cubes. Primary 2s, in literacy, you’ve been learning the soft ‘g’ sound and also working on your reading comprehension skill of inference. In numeracy, you’ve been working on separating objects into equal parts which is an introduction to division. In French we were learning about parts of the body and in class we managed to learn ‘Head, shoulders, knees and toes’ in French.
Keep up the great work everyone. We’re really proud of you. Mrs Meikle.
P2A Remote Learning
You have been working so hard on your learning at home Primary 2A! I have been so impressed with your hard work on Seesaw and in class this week. In Literacy, we have been learning to read and write soft g words. You all worked so hard to write a fantastic description of a family member this week. I saw lots of brilliant connectives which was our Success Criteria challenge. Next week we are going to begin writing an imaginative story.
In Numeracy we have been learning to make equal groups. You all know this means you were dividing and this week, we have been learning to divide by 2. You used concrete materials at home to practise sharing equally and I was impressed with how hard you all worked on this task. We have also continued with our number talks too.
I am glad so many of you asked for more French target tasks and you all put in so much effort to your French learning this week. I have loved seeing everyone being so creative in your learning. Here are some examples of your amazing work on Seesaw.
Alex worked really hard to build a house for the Three Little Pigs. This was Mrs Beattie’s STEM challenge this week. Super effort Alex!
Isla used her nail varnish collection to spell soft g words. I love her creativity and she has a very impresive collection. Super spelling Isla:)
Harry read this book himself at home this week. I am very proud that you were practising your reading Harry and choosing to read a book for enjoyment:)
Jaysiel worked hard to sequence numbers from smallest to largest in Numeracy. This was a great challenge and you could order all the numbers in the correct order. Well done:)
Have a great weekend everyone:)

P4/3 Remote Learning
We have been learning lots over the past fortnight.
In Literacy we have written descriptions, imaginary stories and worked on our reading comprehension in lots of different ways.
In Numeracy we have been practicing our hardest tables and taking part in Sumdog challenges. In Maths we have been learning about 2D & 3D shapes, developing our knowledge of Time and working on Fractions.
In Health we have looked at healthy foods and created an Eatwell Plate, thought about what happens to our body when we exercise, created goals for this year and thought about our achievements and how we feel when we achieve something new.
We have also told stories, drawn turtles, learned about animal habitats and found out about snowflakes.
Wow what a busy fortnight we have had!
This week in P4 remote learning edition
Hi everyone,
This week in P4 we have been learning about Time in numeracy and doing a range of activities in literacy from descriptive writing to reading and understanding a text. It has been great to take part in a range of science and art activities as well as see some photos of pupils playing in the snow.
It has been great to see so many pupils taking part in our daily live calls. I’m looking forward to next week.
Primary 1
Good morning Primary 1.
Thank you for all your hard work in school and on SeeSaw. Your models, pictures and poems for Scots Week have been super.
This week we have continued our phonics work, learning the new sound ‘th’ and practising ‘sh’ and ‘ch’. We have been learning number bonds to 5 and 10. We also measured using footsteps and blocks.
Have a super weekend.

P5/4 & P5 ⭐️⭐️
This week both P5/4 and P5 have worked very hard⭐️.
They have created fact files on their favourite animal, learned the bus stop division method with remainders and engaged in live quizzes. They were set a challenge to create a model from recycled materials and to build a sustainable house for the three little pigs. Below you will see some photos of excellent examples. Keep up the good work 👍🏼😀🌈.
