This week is maths week in Scotland and to celebrate P2 have been engaging in lots of fun number games, tuff tray activities and and exciting outdoor learning lesson lead by The Green Team. Take a look at some of our highlights this week! #article29

The theme this year was ‘Wild Maths’ and we took this opportunity to get outdoors! 🌳 🍃

First, we were learning how to measure in cm/mm. We did a scavenger hunt in the playground, looking for items of specific sizes and lengths. We were also developing our digital skills by documenting our findings using the iPad to create a photo log. 📸 📏

We were also lucky enough to have Margon from the Green Team visit us! She brought a whole host of natural goodies that we had to organise from largest to smallest, count using tally marks and sort into different categories.

What a fun week of Wild Maths!

Article 31

P3 have been learning about greater than, less than, and equal to symbols in numeracy and used concrete materials to support their understanding. #Article28

P3 worked on coordination and team work skills in PE and worked hard to improve their skills and resilience. #Article24

To finish the week, P3 had a final practise of this week’s spelling words before testing their spelling!

This week P6 have had an excellent week of learning. We have focussed on the plot of narrative writing, powers of 10 and we have started our new spelling words. 

During the “Our Prehistoric World” topic we learnt about Early Humans in the Stone Age. We created our own cave paintings, our own Stone Age tools and we sorted Stone Age objects and animals into categories. We compared life back then to now and realised how much the world has changed. Great learning P6, keep it up!👏

Article 29- developing children’s talents, and fostering respect for humans and the environment.

Primary 4 Update

Primary 4 have had a really positive week! ✨ We have been learning how to write engaging story starters and practising partitioning numbers up to 1000. Alongside this, we’ve been setting weekly goals and reflecting on our learning in our class floorbook.

Setting weekly goals helps us stay focused and gives us something to aim towards each week. Everyone has worked really hard, and we are so proud of the effort and enthusiasm shown.

Well done, P4! 👏

P7 have been discussing the rights of the child. We highlighted these 6 rights to be in our class charter. #Article 28.

This week we have been learning all about doubles and halves! Have a look at some of our outdoor learning making doubles and halves with natural resources. #article29
