Hello P3 families!<\/p>\n

The learning highlights this week come from \u2018Bathgate\u2019:<\/p>\n

Ellie has enjoyed writing her Robert Burns inspired poem.\u00a0 Each child chose something in nature and entitled their poem, \u2018To a ________\u2019, just like Robert Burns\u2019 \u2018To a Mouse\u2019 and other such poems.\u00a0 We are now ready to produce our final drafts!\u00a0 Look out for these super poems during February\u2019s parent consultations.\u00a0 You will be very proud!\u00a0 This coming week we will also replace some of the words with some of those in old Scots.<\/p>\n

Leighton loved being an audience for the P6 \u2018Burns Night\u2019 show and I know she was very proud watching her sister perform.<\/p>\n

Both Nathan and Vikashini liked gymnastics.\u00a0 The children continued to work on their shapes and balancing.\u00a0 Next week, our final gymnastics session will involve learning the teddy bear roll and bunny hops over low apparatus (before we move on to multi sports).<\/p>\n

Viaan said the best part of his week was visiting the local woods for some imaginative play.\u00a0 See the photos below that captured our visit.<\/p>\n

Daisy liked music with Mrs Morrison.<\/p>\n

My highlight, like Leighton, was watching the P6 show.\u00a0 I have a soft spot for this year group, having taught both classes in the past.\u00a0 I was so very proud of them!\u00a0 We really loved listening to them perform \u2018A Red Red Rose\u2019 as our class has been learning that poem in particular this week.\u00a0 A big well done to all those who bravely recited the poem on Friday in front of the class.\u00a0 I could tell you had been practising at home as well as at school.\u00a0 Thank you parents for supporting your child with this.<\/p>\n

Congratulations to our reading champion, Maja and our hot chocolate winner this week, Laaibah!<\/p>\n

Homework for February will be sent home on Tuesday for those who have opted in.\u00a0 Also, just a reminder that next Friday will be our last day before the mid term break and we will see your lovely children return on Tuesday 17th<\/sup> February.<\/p>\n
