Creating New Games in P5J

Today Primary 5J had a fantastic day in the sun. Last week, we took our learning about instruction writing and created our own new games as part of our Health learning. Today, every child taught a short lesson about their game. We then evaluated their instructions and provided them with Stars and Wishes. We will be putting all of our fantastic ideas into a book to provide pupils and staff with different games that they can play!

Sharing Learning in Primary 5

A huge thank you to all of the parents, carers, friends and relatives who came along to Primary 5’s Sharing the Learning afternoon today. It was great to see such a big turnout, especially on a dark and rainy afternoon! We shared a variety of activities, including making nets of 3D shapes, assembling a skeleton, Powerpoint research presentations and dressing up as Burke and Hare, to name but a few…The children had a great afternoon and Miss Jamieson and Mrs Campbell have enjoyed reading all of the lovely positive comments you wrote – thanks once again for coming.

P2M Jupiter Artland

P2M visited Jupiter Artland last week and we really enjoyed our learning. We learned about the stories behind many of the sculptures and we had opportunities to be very creative, especially when we made our own aliens. This was a fantastic way to start our new topic “The Enchanted Woodland.”

Article 13: We have the right to find out things and share what we think with others.

Article 29: We have the right to develop our talents and abilities.

This was when we danced like the white building. We made up our own dances to  match all the patterns. We thought one side looked like a house and the other side looked like a castle.

This was a huge sculpture that some of us thought was a huge basketball net. We used our learning in Science to talk about which material we thought was used to make the sculpture.

It was so much fun walking up to the top of the grass hills. We could see the “Love Bomb” from the top which we found very exciting. Then we carefully walked back down while Miss Marra took a photo of the beautiful view.  We learned that the gardeners have to work very hard to cut the grass and keep this area neat. We think they do an amazing job.

It was very exciting using our imagination to talk about what we thought could be at the bottom of the hole in this sculpture. Hollie Mc thought the hole might take her to see her family in Australia. It was interesting to hear all our different ideas and we would like to explore this further in class.

Primary 3D Assembly – Ancient Egypt

Well done to Primary 3D for their fantastic performance this morning at the assembly. They have learned so much about Ancient Egypt and were excited to share their learning with the rest of the school. Their hard work definitely paid off this morning! Enjoy your well deserved long weekend!

P2 Phonics

We are continuing to work hard in Phonics and we have been learning compound words this week e.g. football, corkscrew etc. We will be moving on to soft c and soft g words over the next few weeks e.g. page, cell.  We will engaging in a range of learning activities to practise reading and writing words with these sounds. Please support your child to practise these sounds at home.

 

Thank you for your continued support.

Miss Marra and Miss Cameron
