Collins Big Cat Reading

Collins Big Cat Reading

We are delighted that we now have access to Collins Big Cat Reading scheme.

Reading is so important to your child’s development. We would encourage everyone to try read a little every day, especially if you are finding it a challenge to get your child to complete work at home.

This is a whole school reading programme that provides support for primary reading.

Our pupils will be able to access hundreds of high quality fiction and non- fiction banded books by award- winning authors and illustrators.

There are also activities at the end of each book and resources for you to try if you wish.

Each book is read aloud but if your child would prefer to read by themselves click on the pause button.

Your child’s teacher will advise a colour of level for your child to start reading.

Please adapt this if necessary to suit your own child’s reading ability.

Have a look at Sumdog and you should be able to try the Spelling and Grammar activities now.

We hope you and your families are all healthy and safe .

Keep trying your best and remember to enjoy some exercise and fun time too!

Hello Primary 3!

Hello P3/2C and P3R!

We wanted to let you all know we have been thinking of you and hope you and your families are all safe and well.

Well done if you have been managing to complete some of your tasks on your first week’s work grid.

You can see next week’s grid if you use the link below.

Home Learning 2 updated

We know lots of you have been improving your maths skills on Sumdog and we have set a challenge for each class for the next week.

If you like books and reading try –

Home

It’s great to have someone read a story aloud to you ..(we are missing that with you )……and you can read along with the subtitles. Try sharing a story with your family.

Other things that are help just now are making sure you are managing to get outside for a bit and keep doing some exercise, and offer to help around the house…that will bring a smile to someone’s face!

Please keep checking the blog for information and we will post again next week.

Take care and stay safe.

Miss Cameron and Mrs Robertson

Sport Relief fun in P3R

Thank you to everyone in P3R for your kind donations for Sport Relief.

Due to the weather we didn’t manage to get outside for our trim trail slot this afternoon but we really enjoyed a session of Cosmic Yoga instead!

It helps us to improve our balance and coordination and it was really good fun!

P3R Assembly

Many thanks to all our family and friends for coming along to join us at our assembly today.

We have been finding out all about our place in the world.

As a homework task we found out where we were born and where our parents and grandparents were born. We looked at some of the places on a world map.

Its been Scotland Love Languages week and we have been learning to say hello in different languages.

We have also been bringing in photos to show who we look like in our family and to see if we have the same hair and eye colour as our parents. We are learning about inheritance in Science. We didn’t have time to include these in our assembly so we will use them to make a class display.

We loved the story about ‘How The Animals Got Their Tails’, and have been discussing the news about the bush fires in Australia.

Well done P3R! You should all feel very proud of your performance!
