This week in Primary 5

Leave a comment

It has been a very busy, sunny week in P5!

We’ve nearly finished our Time topic in numeracy and the children have all done really well completing this.

In grammar, this week we were focussing on Time Connectives to help us with our writing topic of Exposition. We practiced these by completing an activity on our desks in small groups.

We were using different active methods to practice our spelling word this week and had the choice of scrabble tiles, foam letters or partner testing!

We ended our week with Sharing Our Learning focussing on Friendship, Trust and Communication. Thank you so much for all who participated, it was a great morning and the class loved it.

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend in the sunshine!

Butterflies in P2

Leave a comment

We have been enjoying watching our caterpillars grow and turn into butterflies. After waiting a while the have changed and look beautiful. Today we released them and some were very friendly and did not want to leave us.

We loved having our parents in today and hope you enjoyed doing sun safety with us.

Thank you to the parents who were able to pop along to our Sharing the Learning event this morning.  As part of our Health and Wellbeing learning, this morning the children were finding out more about sun safety.  They all worked very well and chose a variety of activities to do with their parents.

A very special thanks to Miss Gaffney who has been in P1 and P2 this week as part of her school’s work experience programme.  The staff and children have all loved working with her and she has the makings of being a wonderful, caring and fun teacher!  We are very thankful for all her help and wish her every success in the future.

Broomlee- The Final Countdown…

Leave a comment

The last full day at camp continued the same successful story for all our campers. Raft-building, Bush-skills and archery were among today’s highlights. What has really been apparent to instructors and teaching staff, has been the way teamwork and togetherness has really deepened in the group. The ability to work together to overcome challenges, knowing each other’s strengths and when to support has really shone through today. We ended our day with campfire stories, songs and marshmallows. Lots of memories which will never be forgotten!

P7 Camping Update Wednesday 31st May

Leave a comment

Wow- another stunning day in sunny Broomlee. Sleepy heads at 7:30 this morning but breakfast of cereal, croissants (chocolate ones too) and toast helped set us up for the day. Catwalk for one of the groups and Raft Building were 2 of many highlights of the day. A big shout out to Sam and Shannon who were voted ‘Best Leaders’ during Nightline activity by their team along with Miss Lindsay who climbed to the top (yes the TOP) of the Catwalk. Again lots of smiles, hard work and success for all. At this time, we are completing camp quiz activities. Well done to each and every one of our amazing Campers.

Tay Class Update

Last week was another busy week in Tay Class.  Here are a some photos of what we’ve been doing…

All of us really enjoyed playing the glockenspiels:

 

 

We have listening to the story and  songs about ‘What the Ladybird Heard’.  We played a game on the Phonics Bloom website where we matched the sound to the correct animal. Below ‘A’ and ‘H’ are matching the pictures of baby animals to the pictures of the adult animal.

‘B’ and ‘L’ have really enjoyed playing the keyboard.  They have been learning to wait and take turns.

 

 

‘Choose Time’…

‘A’ enjoyed modelling with the plasticine. ‘H’ build a super model with the Duplo and ‘A’ enjoyed playing with a new dinosaur that Miss M. kindly brought in for us.

Trim Trail fun…

exploring, balancing, climbing and running!

‘A’ and ‘A’ learning to share resources

Happy Campers in Sunny Broomlee

Leave a comment

What a fabulous start to our P7 Camp. After an uneventful bus journey, we were straight to activity. Both groups enjoyed testing their teamwork  in Low Ropes, tackling fear of heights in Catwalk (amongst the birds in the trees) and their strategic thinking during Crate Climb. Lots of fun and excitement amongst all pupils, with a bucket load of pride as everyone was successful. After a hearty dinner we are now playing Highland Games in the beautiful evening sunshine. Happy Campers!

Lego club’s bytes and bots!

Leave a comment

This week Lego club’s challenge was to create a Robot with a specific function. As expected, our clubbers rose to the challenge and a new wave of bots came into being!

We had a robot that makes the jungle tidy with its long arm. We also had a robot dog that could fly and a robot cat that didn’t ‘byte’. We also had a team that programmed a robot that offered a number of functions including a spinning arm, a sensor light and a basket ball net! There was also a Robot that was designed to clear things out of the way.

Well done Lego club!
