Primary 2/1

Hello Parents/Carers!

On Friday, Primary 2/1 brought home their ‘Wonderful Week of Learning’ jotters. These jotters are used each term to show what learning looks like across a week (or in this case, a half-week!).

We would love it if you could take some time to look at your child’s learning and talk to them about it. I am also happy if you would like to leave comments/sticky notes on certain pieces of work. Primary 2/1 have been working so hard and it would be lovely to see what you think!

‘Wonderful Week of Learning’ jotters should be returned to school at some point next week.

Many thanks,
Miss McLaughlin 🙂

Hello Parents/Carers!

Primary 2/1 will soon receive home learning bags containing letter sounds and a common word wall. Once Seesaw is up and running for all children, phonics home learning will be posted regularly.

The Sway below gives you information about phonics home learning and will go over some of the techniques that we use in school. If you have any questions or think of other ways that we can support you with learning at home, please let us know.

This week we continued our ‘Building Resilience’ work and discussions led us to talk about mistakes.

We watched the story ‘Beautiful Oops’ and learned about how mistakes can be turned into something special, maybe even better than what we had in mind! We then created our own ‘Oops’ and gave it to a partner. They then had to use our ‘Oops’ to create their own pictures. Have a look at some of the fantastic work below.

If you would like to listen to the story, you can use the link below:

Check in with us again soon to see what else we have been learning!

Primary 2&1

Primary 2&1 have been working on their class charter.

We learned a little about the rights that children have and listened to the story ‘Let’s Explore our Rights’.

We then linked these to our school values (Nurturing, Ambitious, Respectful) and made ‘promises’ that the adults/children could do to make sure our classroom is happy and safe. #responsiblecitizens

Have a look at our charter below:

Check in with us again soon to see what we have been up to!

This week in Maths we have been learning about multiplication. We practised our numbers and times table facts in chalk in the playground.

As part of our topic work on minibeasts, we have been learning about food chains and how insects and other small creatures play a vital part in them. We found lots of different minibeasts outside.

Author Masterclass – Dr Seuss

On Thursday, World Book Day (and Dr Seuss’ birthday), Miss McLaughlin ran a ‘Cat in the Hat’-themed masterclass.

We listened to the story of ‘The Cat in the Hat’ and discussed rhythm/rhyme.

We created our own ‘Cat in the Hat’ artwork and gave the Cat new looks! Miss McLaughlin then gave us a design challenge where we had to plan and create a new hat for the Cat. We used lots of different crafting materials for our creations. #effectivecontributors

Primary 7 Class Charter

We spent a lot of time considering which articles, from the UN convention of the rights of a child, were most suited to us in school.

We read the articles.

Highlighted the one that applied to us in school/class.

We considered the most important to us.

We then thought how we as Rights Holders could keep these rights and how the adults  as Duty Bearers, can help us maintain our rights.

Primary 2/1 worked together to create a class charter. We looked at relevant articles from the UNCRC and referred to those to help us decide on some actions to ensure that the rights of everyone in the class will be met.
