Sharing Our Learning
Thank you to the families who joined us for our Burns Celebration. We have continued the celebrations into this week with recitals of A Dug, A Dug in assembly. Well done to all of our very talents pupils for showing courage when performing to an audience.
The afterschool slime club had great fun today making oobleck. We were all amazed at the texture and consistency of oobleck. It’s a non Newtonian fluid that acts as both a solid and a liquid. It it’s made from cornflour and water-simple!
Sorry for the messy clothes. It will wash off easily.
P3/2 have been learning about Robert Burns this week in preparation for our school assembly. We linked this learning to our new class topic, Scotland. We have enjoyed learning lots of different aspects and we are looking forward to learning lots more. This week we focused on the Scots language and used this to create pop art inspired by Scots words. As part of our assembly preparations we have been learning the song “Ye cannae Shove Yer Granny Aff the Bus”. We’ve been loving the song so much that we broke into song during our Scot word art lesson!
P2/1 are learning how to use money this term. P1s are getting to know the value of different coins, and P2s are using their adding skills to combine coins to make different totals.
Everyone is having lots of fun applying their knowledge in our lovely new role play shop!
P7/6 have been learning about the Pop Art Style. We made links to our learning in literacy about Scots Language and the icon, Oor Wulllie and created some recreations of familiar pop art, with a Scots twist. We also added some of our favourite Scots words in the pop art style. It’s awfy braw!
