Primary 1 have been learning about 2d shape this week.
We made shapes using lollipop sticks, created our own street with 2d shape houses and practised drawing 2d shapes with chalks during our outdoor learning.

P4 took part in an outdoor symmetry challenge this week. They used natural material and loose parts to create symmetrical art. It was important that both sides of the chalk line were the same. Mrs McJimpsey was  also so pleased at how cooperatively we worked with our teams.  Next term, our next step in symmetry will be to create pictures with more than one line of symmetry.
Primary 6 Weekly Update
Maths Week Scotland
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.

Primary 1 are learning to move around the hall safely in PE and are taking part in different activities that help with our balance and control.
On Wednesday, we had an Achievement Assembly. Ariya received an award for carefully drawing and talking about the people in her family and Hallie received an award for showing respect in class. Hallie has lovely manners and always remembers to say “please” and “thank you” when ordering her school lunch.
Primary 1
We have had another happy and settled week in class. We are becoming more independent and are now learning how to self-register in the morning. We all made a picture of ourselves for the wall and each morning, we move our picture down to let our teacher know we are here.
Depending on how we are feeling, we move our picture to a different mood monster (happy, sad, worried, tired or angry). This lets Mrs Strachan know how we are feeling, so she can check in with us.
Primary 6 Update
Literacy (Class Novel)
This week in Primary 6 we have been getting used to our weekly routines. We have been introduced to our new class novel Wonder by R.J. Palacio where we were asked to predict what might happen. This term we will be focusing on prediction where we will develop our skills in this area.
Topic – The Jacobites
We were introduced to our new topic for this term: The Jacobites. We shared what we knew already and what we want to learn so the topic can be shaped around our questions.
Primary 6 Class Charter
During our first week in Primary 6 we worked on ‘Building Our Community’. This is where we were reminded of school routines, expectations and standards, alongside getting to know our new teacher.
As part of this we created our Class Charter which displays our understanding of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) which applies to all children. We recapped about ‘Rights Holders’ and ‘Duty Bearers’ which we then added to our charter.
We worked as a class to pick UNCRC rights that we felt were most important to us and matched our shared vision for this year.
Our shared vision for this year is displayed in our classroom.

Primary 1 have enjoyed their outdoor learning this week. After listening to the story, The 3 Little Pigs, we used different materials to make houses for the pigs. Once our houses were ready, we used the puppets we had made to act out the story. Everyone wanted to be the big bad wolf!
