P6 weekly blog

This week we have been very busy rehearsing for our Jacobite assembly which will take place on Thursday 21st of November at 1 pm. We are all hoping you will be able to come so we can share with you what we have learnt about the Jacobites.

We are also very excited because we have been picked to take part in Radio Forth’s Carols at Christmas! Radio Forth will be coming to the school to record the whole school singing a Christmas carol which will be broadcast on Radio Forth on the run up to Christmas.

We have been learning about keeping safe with electricity.  We worked in groups to make some rules.  Here are P1/2 and P1’s rules.  Talk about them at home if you can.

Always switch off before unplugging

Keep feet out of the way of cables so you don’t trip

Don’t put metal things in your toaster or dvd player

Never stand on broken wires

Don’t leave hot things on because they might cause a fire

Don’t touch plugs or switches with wet hands

Don’t have things plugged in near water like a sink or bath – you might get an electric shock if it falls in

Have a safe weekend:)

Primary 2

We went into the woodland beside our school to collect leaves, twigs and small stones to make a picture using natural resources found in our local environment.

P2 were very disappointed at the amount of dog mess left in a place they use for learning.  They would like everyone to remember to pick up after their pets.

We also checked the orchard for Mrs Hull to make sure there was no litter.

P7

Last week P7 realised they had a hidden talent for orienteering! We went to Lowport for the morning and worked extremely hard in pairs. It was really fun, even though it was a really cold morning!

This week we took part in the Rights Respecting Schools whole school assembly. The right we had been learning about was ‘ we all have the right be the best you can be and be proud of ourselves’. We showed what we had been learning through a drama, a powerpoint and posters.

P1/2 reflective learning

This week we have been busy learning about electricity and what we need it for.  We made posters by cutting out pictures of things we know need electricity to work.  We had great fun cutting and sticking things on.  Next we are going to learn about how to stay safe when using electical items.

Home link – can you all remeber to switch off lights, TVs and games when you are not using them. We are trying to remember to do this in class.

P1 Reflective Learning

This week, P1 have been learning about labels.

First, we looked at fireworks on a video and looked at what shape they were, what colour they were and what noise they made.

Then, we went and drew our own fireworks on black card, making sure they were different shapes and colours. Then, we wrote a label next to our firework. We had words like BOOM, BANG, FIZZ and POP. We tried to write letters that we already knew.

Until next week…

Primary 2

We have just come back from our assembly about children’s rights.  We learned that all children need food, and have the right to enough good food.  Some children do not have lots of different food like we have.  We listened to stories about children who had little food and talked about how that would make us feel.  Children in different places have different types of food.  We learned about these and put them on our map of the world.  We made a graph of our favourite foods and wrote about them.

How would you feel if you could not have your favourite food to eat?

P3

Primary 3 made and took home their time capsules this week.  They are going to bury it so future generations can discover what life was like for us in 2013. Our capsule included a letter explaining what life was like for a child in 2013  and pictures of  the current popular fashion, sweets, music and toys.

P1 Rights Work

Want or need? This is what Primary 1 and Primary 1/2 have been thinking about this week! 

Ted has decided to move to a new land and we had to work in groups to decide the five most important things he would need to take with him.

We understood that there are things we need to live and there are others which would be nice to have, but we could live without them. However, one confused us…

So we challenge you.. A toothbrush – want or need?

Good luck!

Primary 1 and Primary 1/2 🙂
