A place for news, information and sharing learning from PUSCPS
The week beginning Monday 18th December 2023 (the last week of term) we will be completing class talks. The children have been completing personal projects this term where they have explored a topic they are interested in.
They will be assessed on their talking and listening skills through a class talk. The children will be able to sign up for these on Monday 11th December 2023 in class.
The criteria has been posted on our Teams page for everyone to see.
Any questions please get in touch.

This week we created a piece of Christmas artwork to be displayed outside Miss Finlayson’s office.
Miss Walkingshaw’s challenged us to re-create the ‘Grinch Pinch’ from her favourite movie – The Grinch. We focused on texture, colour and detail when creating our pieces of artwork. We also ran a separate competition which was to design the best Grinch.
Today in class we have been learning about Hinduism. We explored the festival of Diwali to find out more about how Hindu’s celebrate, why they celebrate and create our very own Diva Lamps.
We will wait for them to dry overnight and then we will decorate them tomorrow.
Nalan was our expert today, showing us examples of real Diva Lamps alongside giving us tips on how to create our own.
One of our Community partners, Broxburn United Sports Club have recently started an online newsletter which will be released on the 1st of each month.
This will bring you the latest news and information with what’s going on down at BUSC.
They will have everything from latest news, new programmes, community work and much more.

There is now a home learning grid based upon on our class novel ‘Wonder’ by R.J. Palacio on our Primary 6 Microsoft Teams page. The children have been shown the grid and we discussed the activities.
This week we continued learning about significant individuals through Black History month. We explored the impact that Martin Luther King Jr had on the past and present day. We created our own dreams like he did which led into a piece of artwork from one of his iconic speeches.

This week in Primary 6 we have been using digital technology to further enhance our learning of Information Handling. We created different types of graphs and simple pie charts to show our knowledge gained this term. We collected our own data based upon our own interests, collated our findings in a table which was then displayed in a way of our choosing.
Please find attached our termly overview for Term 1.
