We have been learning all about fractions today in P2. Here are two superstars showing off how to make fractions from everyday objects!

Ceilidh Collaboration
Primary 5 and Primary 5/4 have worked together very effectively to plan, organise and lead a number of Ceilidhs for other classes this week, in celebration of Scottish traditions.
Here they are dancing with P1 and P2/1, showing that they are excellent role models and enjoying dance.
Scottie Dugs Sewing
Primary 6 continued the celebration of all things Scots in Art and Design with Mrs Fox this week by creating some wonderful and wacky Scottie dugs.
The children chose their favourite patterned fabric with a plain coordinating colour. Then using a template, they pinned and cut the material. Finally they used an over-stitch to attach both pieces together.
Next steps will be:
- To stuff the dugs and add a ribbon so they can be displayed.
- Personalise the design by adding our own choice of embellishments.
So many skills squeezed into one learning opportunity!
STEM Construction Challenge
Children in our P1-3 department have been thoroughly enjoying taking part in a range of construction based challenges this week! These challenges have been collaborative, motivating and above all FUN! We have had to learn how to co-operate in mini teams, problem solve, persevere and express our own ideas using a wide range of practical materials! Here are a few snapshots of Primary 3/2 in action…with a couple of sneaky P7s who wanted in on the building site action! Oh and Ms Elder who was instructed by the Site Manager to wear her hard hat and high viz waistcoat before she could pass through 🙂
