Last week we were learning to use the element of line to draw what we see. We looked closely at a leaf and thought about the shape of it and the lines of the veins. We then drew its outline and tried and copy where all the lines were. Next we looked at the leaf again to see what colours were needed. We thought about light and shadow and shaded our leaf picture so it looked as close the real one as possible.
During Book Week Scotland (which begins on 18th November) we celebrate reading for enjoyment and aim to show our pupils that adults enjoy sharing books and stories too.
We love to welcome in adults as Secret Readers who come along to read a short story or chapter aloud to classes.
We would be delighted to hear from you if you would like to volunteer as a Secret Reader during the following dates and time.
Week 1
Week 2
Please contact our school office by email and include the following information
We provide a wide selection of books but are happy if you have a favourite of your own that you enjoy reading.
We would also love to celebrate the number of different languages that we have here in East Calder Primary and would appreciate it if anyone would like to read a short story in a language other than English.
Many thanks for your continued support.
Happy Reading Everyone!
