In P6 we have been going to swimming lessons at James Gillespie’s High School.

In maths, we have been learning about angles and compass points.

We have been focusing on Bible stories and doing worksheets on the stories to test our knowledge in R.M.E. We made monkey masks for Diwali, the Hindu Festival of Light.

In German we have been learning the alphabet and playing games to help us memorise the letters.

On Monday we had a taster of American football and we learnt how to catch an American football correctly.

Last Friday we had a Halloween party at school, organised by our PTA. It was so much fun and we played lots of different games.

Now we are busy doing things for the Christmas Fair as part of our enterprise topic! It is very fun but we need to keep it a secret just now. Watch this space for further clues as the Fair date approaches – Friday 7th December.

 

Hello and welcome to the P4 blog page. I hope to be able to keep you up to date with all the exciting things we have planned for the year. I will also make sure that I tweet what’s happening in class. Please look out for these on our Roseburn page.

In P3 we found a dragon egg! We had to write instructions of how to hatch it. This is how it started:

“Have you discovered a glittery dragon egg in your garden? If so do not despair, help is at hand!”

We looked after it and it hatched in our teacher’s house. It is in our classroom right now.

P2 have been painting dots this week for art. In the first lesson, with Miss Mitchell,  we did drawings starting with a tiny dot. The next lesson we painted different types of dots and mixed paint up to make different dots and new colours. In the last lesson we used cotton buds and we made little dots of fireworks. It was really fun.

In Art, P1 have produced black pen line drawings of haunted houses and of the characters Meg and Mog. We have been reading and watching  Meg and Mog stories. We all liked the book and we now know that Meg is the witch and Mog is the cat.

Last Friday, P1 and P2 had a Hallowe’en party at school. We got to come to school dressed in spooky costumes. We made spiders from cards and straws and we got to put our hands in a cauldron full of jelly to find some Hallowe’en  treats. We finished the party with everyone together in the hall doing the Time Warp.
