P3 mid-week check in

Good morning P3.

We hope you are all well and are staying safe at home.  Hopefully you have had a chance to do some of the activities on the P3 Home Learning Board.

Remember if you take any photos or videos of your work you can email them to wlpuscps@westlothian.org.uk or tweet them to us @PUSCPS and they will be shared on the P3 Virtual Learning Wall. 

Has anyone been making rainbows at home to display in their window to cheer people up? We already have one on our Virtual Learning Wall.  If you have made one, send in your photos so we can fill our Virtual Learning Wall with cheer!

Take care,

Mrs McConville and Ms Cave

 

Whole School Challenge – Nursery

Hi Everyone

You may already  have seen this on the  PUSCPS pages but I wanted to share it again as we have some excellent artists in the nursery. The challenge is design a poster to let people to know they should be staying safe at home. I am sure you would all have a million ideas and you can share them on your Learners Journals where we can share them with Miss Burton.

 

Good Luck!!

Today we finished the term with a PUSCPS sing a long. It was fantastic to see the children singing along and dancing.

I shared a story about why things are changing for now.

School Values Consultation: Last Chance!

As a school we recently consulted on what our community think our core values should be. Our core values are the fundamental beliefs of our school and are the guiding principles that dictate our behaviours.
Thank you to everyone who has contributed so far. Please take a few minutes to complete the questionnaire which will help us determine our school values.

The questionnaire will close on 17th March 2020.

 

Primary 3 STEM Topic Work

As part of our ‘Our Planet, Our Future’ topic, Primary 3 and been learning about the effects of litter and plastic pollution to the environment.

We have been researching how long it takes for materials to rot away after they are discarded and how our rubbish impacts on animals. Using the information found, we created posters and wrote an exposition to persuade people not to drop litter.

With have also linked our topic with our work on food chains, learning how animals depend on one another and discovering how plastic can enter and pass through the food chain. We worked in groups to create pictures of different marine food chains and presented them to the rest of the class.

Our next step is to learn more about recycling and how to cut down on our use of plastic to reduce plastic pollution.
