Lots of Literacy in P2/3

Primary 2/3 have been learning to write information reports. Following on from Burns Night, we brainstormed what we know about Scotland, from the music, animals, landmarks down to the Scots Words. We created information reports about Scotland and created our own tartan by weaving paper. We also enjoyed singing ‘heids, shooders, knaps and taes’.

A Busy Week in P2

In Primary 2 this week we enjoyed a special visit from Dave for “Wee Story, Big Sound”, where the children created their own song using a shopping list of items from his bag.

In maths, we explored grouping objects by colour and size, and in PE we practiced badminton skills, working together to take part in a rally.

P3’s Christmas Learning

We have been looking at addition and subtraction in Numeracy and have been focusing on inverse operations. Primary 3 have become experts at this and have helped an alien to understand more about inverse operations by designing posters. In writing we completed our final Narrative Text about missing Christmas presents. We have had a busy week and have also enjoyed doing lots of Christmas artwork as well as attending our Christmas party and watching the P1 Nativity.

Christmas in Primary 4

Primary 4 have been busy getting into the festive spirit this week whilst using the Metaskills to create some Christmas designs. We worked collaboratively using a range of materials to build Christmas themed furniture.  We started by building a sleigh for Santa and our ideas just kept coming! The children suggested we create models of Rudolph, a gift, a chimney for Santa and we got really creative when we built a table and chairs to eat our Christmas dinner at. Mrs Love was very impressed with the focus, perseverance and leadership skills shown!
