This week in P7
P7 were very excited to begin some basic coding with Scratch this week. We were learning what some of the blocks do and having a go at our own simple designs. There are some very creative people. We have learned how to move characters, make them grow and shrink, and disappear. We have also learned how to make a loop so that the actions can be repeated.
I really enjoyed watching my buddy in the P1 assembly about Chinese New Year . they were amazing!- Ben M
I really liked coding on scratch jr, it was my first time ever coding. It was a lot better than I thought it was going to be. – Ben Y
I liked doing Scratch jr on the iPads with Bobby and we made something fun and we made everyone laugh. – Charlie
This week we got the scripts for the school play and it is really fun practicing with people in the playground- Eleni
This week I really enjoyed football because it was our second week back and my team won every game and I scored one or two goals-Ruari
Please note that there are only 2 weeks left to work on your Robert Burns project. I know that many of you are almost finished – well done for being so organised.
We also have had to change our assembly date from 22 Feb to 3 May as we will be attending the ICHS School of Football festival on 22 Feb.
P1a Learning Reflection W/E 1st February
Friday again! Primary 1 have been working so hard. In science we have been learning about ice melting. We also enjoyed our workshop from Generation Science called Ready Teddy Go! where we learned about the different forces such as friction. We have been learning about the Chinese New Year and preparing for our assembly. We had to learn lines and a song. Thank you for coming to see our assembly. In maths we have been continuing to learn about time. We have learned the types of clock and now know what an analogue clock and digital clock is. We can name hands on an analogue clock. They are called the minute and hour hands. We know that when the minute hand is at the 12 then it is an o clock time. In literacy we have been practising our sounds and tricky words. In writing we wrote a describing sentence about Greyfriars Bobby. In P.E. we were making sequences using 2 shapes, a jump, a balance and a roll. Here are a few of the children’s reflections:
Lois: “I found it hard writing my sentence about Greyfriars Bobby.”
Ch: “I enjoyed our assembly about the Chinese New Year.”
Ziva: ” I enjoyed the Ready Teddy Go workshop and learning about forces.”
Sam: “Like Ziva I enjoyed the Ready Teddy Go workshop.”
Ayden: “I enjoyed our assembly.”
Isaac: “I enjoyed learning my lines for assembly.”
Leighton: “I enjoyed saying my words for assembly.”

In numeracy we have continued with our time topic learning about the seasons and months of the year. Well done to all of the children who had a go at learning one of the Scottish poems. As the standard was so high we had four children through to the final, so a great big well done to Subhan, Poppy, Roshan and Sushanth. Our overall winner is………. Poppy!

P1a Learning Reflection W/E 25th January
This week has flown by. We have been revising our set 1 sounds and tricky words. We played a roll and read game, looked for real or nonsense words and rolled dice to make real or nonsense words. In writing we learned what a simile is and wrote our own similes to describe Nessie the Loch Ness monster. “Nessie is like a dinosaur.” said Lois. “Nessie is as big as a cruise ship.” said Leighton. “Nessie is as shy as a mouse.” said Sevinc. We also said our poems to the class. In maths we have been exploring the months of year and the seasons. We drew pictures of the different seasons and discussed each one. We had to sequence the months of the year correctly. In P.E we are still working on gymnastics. We continued working on our different shapes and learned how to do two types of rolls. In Science, we went out in the garden and picked up things from nature. When we got into class we put the things we had picked up in a cup and filled the cup with water and placed it in the freezer. We also got together with Ms King’s class to prepared for the Scottish assembly. We performed the Three Craws. Here are some of the children’s reflections:
Euan: “I found looking for the real and nonsense words tricky.”
Leo: “I found it hard playing the game when we were making real and nonsense words.”
Sam: “I enjoyed exploring the months of the year.”
Ayden: “I enjoyed the Scottish assembly.”
Sevinc: “I enjoyed writing my simile about Nessie.”
Murdo:”I enjoyed the assembly and listening to the poems.”
Rory: “I found it tricky to concentrate on finding the real and nonsense words.”
