Primary 4

Last week we had a food tasting session where we tasted a variety of different types of foods including; mozzarella cheese, avocado, watermelon and mango.  At first most of the children weren’t sure about tasting the mozzarella cheese however, in the end it turned out to be the favourite food item we tasted.  This week we have been researching where these different foods come from.  We have started to gather facts and information to make a poster and a Powerpoint to share with the class.

Today was a very different day in Primary 4 and we had lots of new teachers in our class.  Thank you to Miss Mullen, Mr Muir, Miss Marson, Miss Duncan-Hamilton and Miss Sulik for all your hard work and fantastic lessons today.  We hope all the boys and girls will have their homework ready for Miss Mullen on Monday!

A Wedding in Primary 2

At the beginning of March we held a pretend wedding in an RME lesson. it was great fun!  We invited special guests and made lots of preparations to make the classroom look more like a church.  The bride travelled in a chauffeur driven car with her dad.  The minister read the service and the best man remembered the rings.  After we had sung a song and watched them sign the register we had photographs taken in the hall and got the chance to throw confetti over the bride and groom.  Then we went back for the reception with a designer wedding cake and dancing.  We sang Auld Lang Syne then the bride threw her bouquet over her shoulder at the end.

Here are our thoughts about the wedding:

“I liked handing out cake.” – Hallie.  “I liked driving the car.”- Logan  “I liked throwing the confetti it was great.” -Euan. “I learned how to behave at a wedding” – Mya. “I liked dancing and cake and being the minister.”- Ewen.  “I learned that sometimes you need some help in a wedding”- Miai.

The Big Pedal

Reminder- when the snow’s gone, remember to scoot or cycle to school and let the JRSOs know! We are ranked 48th in Scotland, 661st in the UK – can we climb that ranking list??? Put your best pedal forward!

World Maths Day and trip to Broxburn Academy

This week P6 went to Broxburn Academy to a Science and Technology Day. We all loved the ooze experiment best. It was really fun to play with because it was all slimy.  There were loads of activities like fizz pop rocket, learning about the heart and animal cells and plant cells.

We all were being responsible citizens because we ran the World Maths Day for the school.  We were each a representative for a class and helping them to log on and play games on the site.  You could play against other children across the world!

In maths some groups are learning division and others 2D and 3D shapes along with volume.

For art we have almost finished our massive Titanic.  We also are starting to draw our own Titanic on A6 paper. For homework we have to make 3D replicas of Titanic.  Some people have made them and brought them in already.  They all look super!

Our Weekly P5 Blog

This week P5 enjoyed golf with Mr Bett and we will look forward to another two sessions with him. Perhaps we have another Tiger Woods or Rory McIlroy amongst us! In PE we have enjoyed badminton with Mrs Pender and sadly it was our last week this week. We also learnt some new playground games so we can show all of the other classes in the playground.

Primary 3

Primary 3 have been researching about the pyramids this week and have also been learning some Egyptian dance moves! All the boys and girls enjoyed taking part in World Maths day and playing the games on the laptops. Our class assembly is now organised for the 21st of March, so we have made our invitations to be sent home.
