In class, we have been reading Katie Morag and the Tiresome Ted. In the story, Katie Morag throws away her teddy when she is angry. We made a poster to help find the lost teddy. We also wrote a description of Katie Morag. Here is Peyton’s description of Katie Morag:
Katie Morag has red hair. It is long and she has rosey cheeks and a jumper that is blue and white. She wears a kilt and a pair of welly boots. She is kind.

This week in Maths, P1/2 have been learning how to sort and display data. We learned how to count tally marks and record them on a table. We also used Carroll Diagrams to display data and worked as a group to create our own headings and categories for sorting objects.
We have also been learning about New Year resolutions. We shared our ideas for our own resolutions then drew and labelled our targets.
Happy New Year from Primary 1!
We are looking forward to learning lots in 2017. We have been finding out what New Year was like in different countries around the world and learned about what New Year’s Resolutions are. Some people in our class wanted to make one!
James: I want to get better at swimming.
Isla: I am going to start tidying my room.
Jack: I am going to help my Mum do the dishes.
Happy New Year from P6!
We are raring to go and keen to learn lots in 2017. On our first day back, P6 have been learning about states of matter in science. We made a video to show how particles behave in solids, liquids and gases. You can watch it below.

P6 and Mrs Cullum would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
As part of their final session with Miss Mulholland Primary 4 performed their Christmas song which demonstrated their learning of beat, rhythm and pitch and then they finished the session with some games which had everyone giggling and trying to keep up. Â Thank you to Miss Mulholland, we have all learned so much and have a much better understanding of music now.
