This week in Primary 2 we have been learning about our topic of Climate Change. We have been responsible citizens by thinking of all the things we can do to help save our planet. Last week we completed our climate display wall with our “save our animals, save our planet posters”.  This week we worked together to think about all of the small steps we can take to try and help achieve this. Here are some examples of our work:

Well it’s been a very busy week for us in P7. We have been preparing for the House Captain elections that are to happen next week.

As it was Children in Need, on Friday,  we designed new T-shirts for the event. Have a look at our amazing designs.

We also had a fun dance-off with P6 outside in the playground.  Mrs Andison was impressed with some of our dance moves. She even gave some of us a 10/10 (Strictly has nothing on us).

The children created their own designs for Children in Need t – shirts. Here were the top 4 designs! well done P5!

Primary 4 have been confident individuals by using tone, pace and gesture to perform poems linked to their book study topic in front of a whole class audience.

They have also been successful learners by creating t-shirt designs for Children in Need.  Here are some of their designs.

As part of Book Week Scotland Primary 2 received their Read, Write, Count bags. As a class we read the book the Biggest story and used this as inspiration to try and write our own imaginative stories. We were confident individuals when  playing the game act it out where one person would act out an animal, object or sport and the rest of the class had to try and guess what it was.

To celebrate children in need today we took part in the live Joe Wicks work it out quiz and workout where we had to work out the answers to 20 general knowledge questions and act out the answers. We managed to get all of the questions right but we were very tired by the end of it!!

This week P5 have been showing how they are successful learners as they have demonstrated a good understanding of their class novel. The Nowhere Emporium by Ross MacKenzie, through a variety of activities.

A fitting way for us to finish our learning about WW2. We made our own poppies for Remembrance day. We wore them to go and lay a wreath at the memorial in Pumpherston. We walked from the school to the memorial  on a beautiful sunny morning to lay the wreath from the school. We spent some time there thinking about the soldiers who had given their lives for us. We also had a minute silence in remembrance of all lives lost from WW1 until today,  in conflict.

P4 have been successful learners by demonstrating their problem solving skills.  They were each given a different word problem to solve and used their knowledge of multiplication and division strategies to solve them.  They also remembered to answer in a sentence.
