We had a fantastic day yesterday celebrating world book day. Have a look below at some pictures showing what we got up to.
P4/5 created a short mime based on a traditional fairytale story. Then, the other children had to try and guess what it was.
The class were then some time to explore the website ‘Epic Books’. The children particularly enjoyed when the website reads aloud and adds sound effects to some of the books.
P4/5 went down to the woods to try and build a home for the Three Little Pigs. The home had to be strong enough to withstand the wolf if it tried to ‘huff and puff’!
We look forward to seeing you all at parents evening over the next few days. The Scholastic Book Fair will be on display in the hall and you may order books then if you wish. Please send correct money in an envelope labelled with your child’s name and class by Friday. Alternatively, your child can […]
Scholastic Book Fair — Primary 5/6 ~ Miss MacDonald 2019/20
Today Primary 4 and 5 pupils welcomed Andy McKechnie from Jammin Fitness. They travelled around the world, learning dances inspired by different countries. They had a great morning and loved performing what they had worked on to the rest of the school. Have a look at what they got up to.
Today P4/5 we’re working on their multiplication and division facts. They were also learning about remainders and how to show this in a written sum.
Groups of children rotated around different maths stations, each with a different focus.
The class really enjoyed the variety of activities to support their learning preferences.
Following on from our work last week, P4/5 worked with Mrs Laird today and heard about a child called Reema, from Syria who was not getting various rights met. The class compared various facts about Syria with those we knew about Scotland and we had a great discussion. They then looked at various rights and considered whether Reema was getting these met, wasn’t getting them met or if we couldn’t tell from the information we had.
Today P4/5 used book creator to create their own comic books to tell the story of the Kelpie and the Frozen Loch. The children have been working hard at using expression when reading aloud. They have used punctuation to show this in their comics.
