Our blog

Another busy week at Kilchuimen.

P 567 have enjoyed listening to Burn's poetry and songs performed by major stars like Brian Cox and Paolo Nutini. Then we made up our own poems about subjects we thought Burns would have liked, especially nature and life in the countryside.

Reece wrote a poem it's Playtime

Ding dong out you go everybody row by row
Get your coats on but don't run, hurry up playtime is nearly here
but just be careful it's slippy out there
Put up your hoods, you don't want wet hair
Now 5 minutes has already past
So the teacher shouts out to the class
"Come on you lot coats off and in you go"
So they sat in their seats again
Row by row.

P 567 made irregular mathematical shapes and measured their angles carefully using protractors.

The whole school assembly was led by the JRSO officers. They told us about the dangers of crossing the road and not using cycle helmets. We also have to make a JRSO logo. There will be a competition judged by Mr Blakey for the best logo. More fun activities will be announced soon.

P 123 have been in the rainforest. The created a jungle fact sheet. There was some very interesting facts on it. Some of the strange frogs and animals I had never heard of. The were singing Jungle songs. One of the favourites was, I have been eaten by a boa constrictor!

P 1 have been estimating number this week and P 2 and P3 have been rounding numbers.

P 123 also learned about wise King Solomon and they did some alliteration Jim ja jaguar.

P 345 have been speaking Italian, Lucy Findlay has been helping us. We also made Pizza's. We made clay food in art with Ms Scollay. We have also been working hard on our rainy day stories and we wrote the middle of the story this week.

P 345 have also been learning how to subtract using exchange, we have also been learning how to check our subtractions by doing addition sums.

Have a super weekend

Kindest regards
