P3 trip to the playhouse

P3 thoroughly enjoyed their trip to the Edinburgh Playhouse to see Bluey. We have used Bluey throughout the year to support our health and wellbeing learning. #Article24 – The right to health and wellbeing.

For many of P3 this was their first time visiting Edinburgh town and going to a show in the Playhouse!

We them enjoyed a nature walk through Bruntsfield links and ended our day with a cheeky play in the park. Definitely well deserved after walking over 10,000 steps!! #Article31 – the right to rest and play.

P3 summer topic 🌞

This week P3 looked at the different temperatures different countries of their interest have in summer. They then used their research to create a bar graph to show their findings. #Article28 – The right to Education.

They also developed on their team work and created a collaborative summer art piece! Everyone was super impressed with the final outcome!

P3s planets, summer and music 🌍☀️🥁

P3 have been working hard on their imaginative space story and loved creating their own planets to write about.

They used paper mache, paint and their amazing creativity and imagination to create their very own, unique planets.

P3 also started their mini topic of “summer” and created posters of what we think of when we think about summer.

Finally, we had our last music/singing session with NYCOS. P3 loved getting active with music and different instruments (especially the drum sticks!!)

P3 this week!

P3 have been working hard on their imaginative space stories linking with our class novel “Flat Stanley in space”.

They have also started using paper mache to create their own planets that they’ll visit and describe in their stories!!

P3 have also enjoyed developing their digital and creativity skills using the iPads to draw and play with friends.

The start of May in P3 💐🌻

P3 were excited to get back in touch with their digital learning this week and enjoyed consolidating their numeracy knowledge on Sumdog targeted to their individual next steps!

They have also been learning about Mary – our mother, and why and how people celebrate Mary in May. P3 and P4 worked together to create symmetrical mandala’s outdoors linking their numeracy, RE and outdoor learning together. #Article14 – The right to thoughts and religion

P3 also enjoyed their second singing session with NYCOS learning different songs to learn pulse and beat! #Article15 – The right to join groups

Finally we ended the week with an online assembly to allow all learners to see each other and celebrate their successes of the week!

P3 fractions, novels and PE!

P3 started their fractions topic this week. They learnt what parts and wholes are, how to write fractions and began identifying 1/2 of different things. #Article28 – The right to education.

P3 also started their first class novel series “Flat Stanley” and created some stunning front covers! We also enjoyed the sunshine and practised for sports day during PE.

Finally, P3 had their first session from NYCOS (The national youth choir of Scotland) where they found their singing voices and enjoying discussing different beats and pulses.

P3 Easter fun

P3 had a very enjoyable last week of term at St Peter’s Primary School. They attended an opera show in the hall and a lovely service for Holy Thursday. #Article28 – The right to Education.

P3 also let their creativity shine during some Easter art and crafts this week. We focussed on using lines and patterns to create contrasting Easter rabbits with water colours and then some super funky Easter eggs. 🐣🥚

Have a wonderful Easter holiday⭐️

P3 resilience !

P3 have been super resilient this week and have worked extremely hard during the current circumstances !

We recapped VCOP this week and looked at using different openers to write instructions. Learners wrote instructions to get from St Cuthberts Primary school to St Peter’s Primary school using different openers then drew pictures to match their instructions. Artice28 – The right to Education.

Miss Tulloch is sooo proud of how mature, respectful and hard working P3 have been this week. You are all super stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

P3 St Patrick’s Day and outdoor learning ☘️☀️🌤️

P3 started their week by learning different landmarks around the world as part of their class topic! We looked at landmarks like The Eiffel Tower in Paris and the Taj Mahal in India. #Article28 – The right to Education

On Tuesday, P3 celebrated St Patrick’s day by dressing in green, learning about St Patrick and why we celebrate this day each year. They then created finger painted shamrocks and drew funky St Patrick’s chicks 🐥☘️#Article14 -The right to freedom of thought and religion.

P3 also made the most of the Spring sunshine and consolidated their knowledge of position and direction. They drew grids on the playground then documented the directions to get to certain points using the language “Left, Right, Up, down, forwards and backwards” ☀️🌤️
