Congratulations Everyone! We did it!

Huge Congratulations everyone!

I am delighted to announce that East Calder Primary has been awarded a Silver Reading Schools Award from the Scottish Book Trust.

Thank you to all staff, pupils and families who have been reading, talking about books, enjoying libraries and sharing their love of books and reading with others.

Classes completed the Reading Schools Attitude Survey and it was great to see many of you enjoy reading more now. You said you have more interesting things to read and describe reading as relaxing and fun.

Thank you for your involvement and enthusiasm, and a special mention to those who find reading a bit tricky but keep trying.

Now that we have an award it’s important to continue to build on our Reading culture at East Calder Primary. There will be lots of opportunities to carry on sharing our enjoyment of reading and books next session.

 

I am so proud of you all and remember KEEP READING!

Fantastic Home Learning in P2M

You have been so creative making your own puppet theatre, Isla-Mae. It looks amazing and I am sure your baby brother loves your puppet shows. Well done!

This is a great idea for a “vegetable hero” Callan. Supper effort with your capital letters and full stops too. Well done!

You have worked so hard to make your own 10 square Finlay. Now you can practise counting on and back to add and subtract numbers up to 100. Well done for this amazing effort!

You have been growing your own rainbow vegetables that you got as a gift for your birthday. You love Science and it is great to see you are enjoying learning more about the world at home. I can’t wait to see how these look soon. Well done for all your hard work!

 

Have a lovely weekend everyone. Your fantastic learning might appear on the blog next week. Stay safe and have fun!

P4S Scottish Week

This week we have been learning lots about Scotland.  We wrote descriptions and drew pictures of Scottish landmarks, researched famous Scot’s and shared facts about them and designed our own Scottish tartan.  We all learned a poem and two of us recited them during our Scottish Assembly.   We had the opportunity to build a 3D model of Edinburgh Castle.  Look at this amazing example.  Very well done.

Book Week in P2M

We have had a very busy and exciting book week! One of the highlights was when we shared our learning with our families and friends on Thursday. We also really appreciate all the feedback from parents and carers which is on display in our cloakroom. Another highlight was decorating our door to celebrate “George’s Marvellous Medicine” by one of our favourite authors, Roald Dahl.

 

We are very proud of all our hard work. All Miss Marra did was print the letters and she helped us put all our work on the door. We did all the other work ourselves. A huge thank you to our two super stars Esmae and Cooper for drawing George and Grandma. Thank you also to Farah for helping with colouring Grandma. We have our fingers crossed that our hard work pays off when the winning door is announced on Monday. However, as Carson so wisely stated, “it is all about having fun and trying our best” and we definitely did. Well done Primary 2M!

P2W Book Week

This week we took part in Book Week Scotland 2019. We were set many challenges to try and complete during our literacy time.

P2W chose to recreate the front cover of one of our favourite books – Charlie and The Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl. We worked so hard creating this that it took us one whole week! We are very proud of all the hard work, effort and teamwork that has went into our amazing door creation.

We have all our fingers and toes crossed in the hope that we win the competition on Monday!
