This week in P3/4

This week in our topic we investigated the people who live in the jungle and how we would survive in a jungle. We dramatized being dropped into a jungle by Bear Grylls and told to ‘survive’! We watched a clip of Bear in the Jungle and found out what he takes and how he copes in these types of situations. We wrote about finding a new plant in the jungle, whilst we were ‘surviving’ and we watched The Jungle Book DVD. We presented and shared our homework projects and enjoyed listening and looking at what others had made.

This week the children reflected on their learned and said:

Chloe – I learned about what we needed to take to the jungle to survive.

Faith – We recalled what we knew about time (half past, quarter to and quarter past).

Zoe – I enjoyed the project.

Evan – We watched Bear Grylls to find out about surviving in a jungle.

Lauchlin – I enjoyed when we shared our projects and celebrated them.

Zak – We learned to make poisonous darts!

Aiste – We learned how to survive in a jungle.

Ruby – We learned that some people in the jungle build their homes up trees and others build huts nearer the ground.

Well done P3/4!

Castle Trip was brilliant today!

The whole day was amazing the pupils in P4/5 were very well behaved and were very enthusiastic learning about cannons and weapons and exploring the Great Hall. Everyone loved hearing the one o’clock gun and seeing the ball drop on Nelson’s Column to show ships in the River Forth the time too.

We headed down the Royal Mile in and out of closes and courts towards Greyfriars Kirk and the famous statue of Bobby.

CAB Poster Competition

A huge well done to Rosie, in P7, who won her section of the CAB poster competition. She will receive her prize in the library at 1:00pm on Friday afternoon. Well done Rosie!!

P4/5 would like to congratulate Michael on winning his section of the CAB competition too. He was very surprised to hear the news !

Kurling Competition

Some of our P6/7 pupils worked with children from Connolly School Campus as part of their friendship week. We took part in a Kurling competition and also sent a cheerleading squad! Some of our class won but it was the taking part that counts and we thoroughly enjoyed working with our neighbours. We would like to thank them for the invite and the offer to keep the trophy in our school as a mark of friendship. Stay tuned and we will add some photos of our experience tomorrow.

What’s a job worth?

Continuing with our money targets this week Mrs C’s maths set are considering various occupations and how skills pay the bills as Cody told us !

We discovered that the prime minister’s salary is less than a footballer ! Zara wants to be a vet when she grows up and Bart wants to design computer games . Kalvyn wants to be a footballer so he can budget his large salary to pay for all his family’s needs!

Sharing our learning

Mrs McAlpines maths set

This week we had great fun learning how to work out the best buy using division. We particularly enjoyed the challenge of  a ‘budget travel’ board game.

My favourite part this term was when we finally got to the forehand rally with a partner. Cameron and I had fantastic control in this game.

I loved the ‘Keepy up’ competition as well as ‘bounce hit catch’.  I think my co-ordination was really good.
