Here are some of P3’s highlights of the week:

“We were learning how to play hockey in gym. We learned how to push pass and dribble.”

“We had to stand at the green line and push the ball with our feet on the ground.” Cadence

“In science we learned about Wilhelm Conrad Rontgen. He invented the x-ray machine during the Victorian era by mistake. If you are a scientist and you make a mistake, it can be a happy mistake because you can learn something new. It’s the same for our learning in P3!” Eve

“We learned about the skeleton. We had to cut out the bones and stick them together to make a big skeleton.” Olivia P

“We have been learning our times tables in maths. We need to be confident and count up in fives.” Aiden N

“In Maths Talk we have been learning to build a bridge to another friendly number to help us add.” Connor L

P6 have been lucky enough to take part in Karate and Judo taster sessions over the past couple of weeks. Across the two sports, we learned how to safely punch, kick, hold and throw. We even got to try out some nunchucks! Here are some photos of us in action.

This week’s blog comes to you from Jasmin and Lauren…

This week we were making 3D umbrellas by folding paper like origami. We glued them to an A4 Spring background.

In PE with Mrs Cullum we have been learning how to bowl in cricket. This week we learned how to underarm bowl and played a game where we had to bowl to a partner and get the ball to bounce on a target.

In PE with Ms Pender we have been focusing on running and throwing for athletics. We played Tom and Jerry for running and had a throwing competition.

Jump Rope Report

What a fantastic effort everyone put in to their hopping, skipping and jumping today at our Jump Rope for Heart event!

Top skippers on the 30 second challenge included Bailey, Jay, John-Paul, Josh, Mrs Mooney, Jessica, Courtney, Lewis, Cameron, Ben, Jamie-Lee, Josh and Amy.

Well done to everyone for all your hard work, I know you got your hearts working harder today with all that exercise. The weather was very kind to us, with the first drops of rain waiting until we were ready to pack up the ropes!

Thank you to Primary 6 for all their help in organising the rota, writing the letters to give out, and supervising the different activity stations today.

The next job will be to collect in the sponsor forms and sponsor money! Please return your sponsor form and money raised as soon as you can (perhaps when you get your breath back?) and we’ll blog the total raised when we have it.

Jump Rope for Heart

This Friday is our Jump Rope for Heart event – a sponsored skip in aid of the British Heart Foundation.

This charity work to save lives and make life better for people with heart disease. The British Heart Foundation also work with schools through their Heartstart programme to train children in emergency first aid.

We are now an affiliated  Heartstart school and Primary 2, 4, and 6 have been learning these very important skills with Mrs Hull using resources sent to us by the BHF. Now we want to give something back and help them to continue their work with other schools.

Sponsor forms will be coming home on Wednesday!! On Friday morning each class will take part in skipping activities for 45 minutes using long and short ropes with Primary 6 on hand to help with the counting.

Which class will manage the most skips without stopping? Who will show skipping style on the long ropes? Can the teachers keep up?

We are helping Mrs Hull to organise the school ‘Jump Rope for Heart’ event – a sponsored skipping event on Friday 9th May.  We have sorted out a timetable for classes, drafted the letter for parents and counted out the sponsor forms.  We checked how many skipping ropes we have and will be practising our skipping skills.

Tomorrow we are going to Pumpherston Bowling Club. We will need to wear flat plimsolls or gym rubbers.

Our topic for this term is The Local Community and we are currently practising our class talks about clubs and activities that take place in our community.
