In P6bc we are excited to start our new topic about World War 2. The children have come up with lots of questions about what they want to learn.
John asked ” Did Hitler really die?”
Niamh wanted to know what the biggest and smallest armies were.
Robyn asked ” What type of food and drink did people have?”
Niamh asked “How many medics were there?”
As you can see, the children have many varied questions that they will research throughout the coming weeks through all of their lessons.
In PE we have been continuing with gymnastics. We have been learning how to do cartwheels and vaulting. We have also been creating our own stations during our outdoor sessions on a Wednesday.
In literacy we have been writing mystery recounts. We have recounted a mysterious death and we had a crime scene set up to give us clues as to what happened.
In numeracy we have been focusing on division and have been doing some revision work sent to us from the Academy. We have also finished looking at the lattice method and Japanese method for multiplication. In maths, with Mrs Cross, we have been looking at data handling.
The leadership team have been very busy preparing for our Coffee Morning this Friday and the rest of P7 have been creating and rehearsing for our P7 assembly this Friday. We would love any cake donations for Thursday 29th of September. We hope to see you there!

We have been working really hard in P4s since returning from the long weekend.
In Maths, we have been continuing to practice column addition and subtraction and we have been working really hard to improve our jotter presentation.
During our Literacy lessons we have been writing recounts. Last week we entered a fantastic writing competition whereby we wrote about our adventures in the Bathgate Hills. Each class submitted three entries into the competition and we can’t wait to find out if someone from P4s has been successful. We also spent some time learning about homophones, playing fun and interactive games to make it exciting.
In IDL we have started a new topic, Egyptians! We have really enjoyed exploring our new topic through Art, and have already filled our classroom with some wonderful creations…
In P.E. we have been continuing to learn lots about gymnastics as well as going outdoors to participate in weekly team building games.
Two very exciting things have also been happening in class recently:
