Day: March 11, 2024

At East Calder Primary  we are proud of our Silver  Reading Schools Award.

We love special events where we can enjoy books and reading, and that also give us  the opportunity to have fun with others.

On Friday to celebrate World Book Day we all enjoyed a BIG Cosy Read. It was great fun relaxing and listening to someone reading, or just having time to look at a book with a friend.

There was a huge variety of super squishies, cushions and cuddly toys in each class as everyone snuggled up to share a story.

We hope everyone enjoyed this event ..and remember.. keep reading!

For world book day we celebrated as a school by dressing up in our pyjamas and getting comfortable for a ‘Big Bedtime Read’. Here we are enjoying some texts of our choice in class on Friday.

We have recently started looking at length and measure as our numeracy topic. We started exploring measuring using non standard units such as whiteboard pens, paperclips and glue to measure objects around the classroom.

We discussed our estimation skills and how to measure accurately. Our estimations gradually became more and more accurate!

We decided to use our wingspan to estimate and measure things around and outside our school!
