We have had a really busy 2 weeks since coming back to school after the Christmas holidays. In PE we have been building up short routines, starting from a 2 person balance, moving on to a group balance and involving a mix of rolls and linking movements.<\/p>\n

For our Scottish Focus we are working on Burns poetry and the Scots language. This year, 2019, is the UN Year of the Indigenous Language and so we have been considering what we think of a Scots language. The debate continues as there is no agreement in class of whether we are talking about a language, a dialect, or if it’s just the way we say things, or something else. Many of us have been told that we are just speaking slang. It’s a complicated thing to sort out. Nonetheless we have had lots of fun learning some Scots words.<\/p>\n

Holly – As sports captain I have to make sure the PE cupboard is kept tidy but it is frustrating because every morning I check it is messy again and nothing is getting put back in the proper place.<\/p>\n

Elise – It was fun making up the routines in gymnastics. I like doing the cartwheels over Claudia.<\/p>\n

Ben M – I’m really proud of Calderwood winning the house points. Well done Calderwood you did great.<\/p>\n

Lewis – I learned a new way to do fractions in maths.<\/p>\n

Kaitlyn – I liked making the routines in PE because it was fun.<\/p>\n

Remember, we are currently trying out doing our reading work in school rather than at home. Pupils will only be doing there reading at home if they have not got their books in school, or if they didn’t finish during the time they were given.<\/p>\n

Football with Neil from the SFA starts again on Tuesday. Please remember to bring outdoor kit and warm layers.<\/p>\n

Poems should be learned and ready to recite on Monday. Pupils will be heard saying their poems on Monday or Tuesday.<\/p>\n

All pupils in P7 have been given a form to complete for their entry in the P7 yearbook.<\/p>\n

Burns projects should be well under way now. I know many pupils are enjoying the process, coming in to tell me knew facts every morning – well done and keep going.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
