Sharing Our Learning
P7 visited Whitburn Academy this week for a day of STEM learning. We took part in workshops run by different employers who use STEM as part of their jobs. We also celebrated Book Week Scotland. We took part in a Kahoot! to test our book related knowledge, we created our own book covers for our debut novels and watched one of our favourite Scottish Authors Ross MacKenzie, author of the Nowhere Emporium talk about his books on Authors Live.
A lovely, cosy movie morning for our winning house group. Well done to the blue house group who earned the most house tokens in term one and selected a movie day as their reward! Keep on showing our school values to earn more house points!
P3/2 and P2/1 braved the cold and set off on an exciting bear hunt adventure! Using our story stepping stones, we carefully sequenced each part of the story, making sure the events were in the correct order. We searched high and low on a scavenger hunt, explored each part of the story using musical instruments to create music for our bear hunt chant. And after all out hard work… we finally found the bear!
This week P6/5 have been learning the Military Two Step and the Gay Gordans.
We enjoyed working collaboratively and having fun with our friends.
P2/1 and P3/2 are having a great time celebrating Scottish Book Week! On Wednesday we had a book bag gifting event, where every child received a bag of new books and games from the Scottish Book Trust. We had so much fun reading our new books, playing games and drawing the characters with online help from one of the illustrators.
