Pumphie Pals: Digital Learning
Today at Pumphie Pals we discussed four different questions:
- What is technology?
- How do we use technology at school?
- How do we use technology at home?
- What other ways could we use technology to help us learn?
Our Digital Directors will use this information to help their Junior Leadership Team.
JRSOs
Today the JRSO junior leadership went for a walk to identify safe and unsafe places to park your car.
They made a video from the school gate to the football ground car park, to show that it is a safe place to park and then walk to school.

The group also took photos of areas around the school car park which is an unsafe to park.

Primary 3 Number Homework
Miss McLaughlin has set each Number group their very own Sumdog challenge. This will consolidate the concepts we will be learning in Number work over the next two weeks. The challenge will be live from 9.00 tomorrow morning and end at 12.30 on Friday 12th October.
Children should try to access their challenge at home by logging in and clicking on the ‘Challenge’ button at the left-hand side of the screen. This will automatically change the focus of the games to the concepts we are practising.
Please don’t worry if you cannot access Sumdog from home – there will also be time given in class to play.
Complete the challenge and earn 400 coins!
Good luck!

Maths Week Scotland Assembly
Today we had an assembly to share our learning during Maths Week Scotland.
Mr Sneddon joined us from Virtue Money to share with us the importance of Maths and Numeracy in every day life and for our future career paths. Virtue Money donated a free piggy bank and key ring to all our children to remind us why it is important to safe our money. A big thank you to Mr Sneddon for supporting us with our Developing the Young Workforce learning.
Our classes shared with us their learning during Maths Week which was all connected to their Interdisciplinary context for learning.
