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.

Mrs Forbes, Mrs Murdoch & Ms Rutherford

Whole School ‘Nativity Assembly’

This morning we held our usual virtual Assembly on TEAMS, however today’s assembly was very different as it was our first Nativity Assembly which was led by the pupils of East Calder Primary School. The Christmas Story was told by pupils from every class and we think that our P1-7 pupils did a fantastic job! You all learned your parts so well and spoke clearly and confidently – great job everyone!!!

 

 

Lockdown Painted Stones

A massive ‘THANK YOU’ to our secret helpers who came in to the school playground last Friday to cement down the beautiful painted stones which our pupils and their families did during Lockdown.  We were delighted to see the finished result and are sure that you will agree that they have done a fantastic job. On behalf of everyone at East Calder Primary School THANK YOU VERY MUCH. Your help is much appreciated 🙂

Here are some of the photos of our COVID Snake which can be found in the P1-2 playground.
