Happy new year everyone! We hope you all had a lovely and relaxing Christmas break! It was great to see the pupil’s huge smiles and enthusiasm for starting back on Tuesday morning. The class loved sharing their favourite parts of the holiday which they then used to write a Christmas Holiday report.
We reflected on the year that is now past and discussed all the things we are looking forward to in 2018. This was a great starting point for evaluating our learning in Primary 3 and deciding what we would like to work on going into the new term. The class created their own Learning Zone that helped them visualise what we feel really confident doing in class to what we feel we need to work on.
Throughout the next few weeks our focus in class will be on Scotland and looking at all things Scottish. We hope to learn some Scottish poems in time for Rabbie Burns Day and have set up stations in the classroom that include designing our own tartan and paper weaving.
On Friday we welcomed Mrs Birkett to the class and she will be working with us over the next few Mondays and Fridays.
Have a lovely weekend,
Mrs McVay and Primary 3
