Thinking Back Looking Forward Pupil Profiles – P2-P7

Today pupils in P2 – P7 will bring home their THINKING BACK LOOKING FORWARD profile for this term.    This is a profile of what your child sees as their progress in learning so far this session and also includes a summary of the pupils’ current strengths and next steps from the class teacher.  Pupils in nursery and P1 will have learning to share through the Online Learning Journals system.

This is a new approach to reporting to parents for us this term and – as discussed in September’s newsletter – it forms a part of our FAMILIES LEARNING TOGETHER – SHARING LEARNING programme which we are developing this session.

We hope you find these new mid-year profiles more useful that the old-format final report in June.  Please bring your copy along to your appointment on Wednesday or Thursday evening and you can discuss it with the teacher then.   All pupils took home an appointment slip for parent appointments on Friday – if you don’t have yours – please call the office.

Termly Learning Overviews – Term 1 2016/2017 (August-October)

Each term class teachers plan the areas of focus for this term’s learning.  These overviews are shared with home and with the pupils.  The overviews for this term below were sent home in September with each child.  You can check them here and download a copy of your child’s plan.  This can help frame a discussion with your child on what they are learning and where they are finding success or challenges.

Friday 7 October 11am – Families Learning Together – Session 1

Next Friday is our first Families Learning Together – Sharing Learning session.  This is for pupils in P2 to P7.  Anyone from home is welcome to come along and share the pupil’s learning.  Please ensure the reply slip is completed and returned so we know who is coming – for security.  The invite below is downloadable from the link – has been emailed – and is in each child’s bag.

If necessary – a simple note to the class teacher on whom to expect will be sufficient.  We look forward to seeing you then and are all very excited at building on our programme of developing home engagement with learning.

Primary 7

This week the children have been learning simple Spanish phrases in order to create a short play script.  They have been working with a partner to create it in English and then try it in Spanish using a vocabulary list that they have learned.

The children have been creating comparison posters to compare aspects of life during WWII to the present day.

As part of our WWII topic, the children expressed an interest in the Holocaust.  Today we had a presentation from Lucia who is an ambassador for the Holocaust Educational Trust.  The children were very engaged in the presentation and had lots of questions to ask at the end.

Primary 7

In maths we have been rounding numbers to the nearest 10,100 or 1000 and using rounding to estimate the answers to calculations.  In PE we have been playing invasion games.  The children have been giving their opinion about what works best in the invasion games and we have adjusted how we play the game as a result.  They are much happier with the new format of the game.

We have also been learning about WWII and enjoyed a handling session from Mrs Liddell.  The session gave a detailed account of events during the war.  It was presented in a way that made links to Mrs Liddell’s relatives, who experienced the war, and made links to local areas which made it more meaningful for the children.  They also had the opportunity to try on some of the clothing.

P7 Prom

Last night we had our Primary 7 prom. We had the best time ever! Everyone was busting cool moves on the dance floor. It all started at Uphall Station Bowling Club when we hopped into the limo and blasted the music. Everyone was singing along to the music. As soon as we got to the school we all got out and got our pictures taken.  After walking along the red carpet we got inside the school hall where we had our ceremony sharing our memories, performing our class song and celebrating our achievements by receiving our awards. We had a buffet and we danced the night away. Our prom was amazing!
