Class 8 have been superstars in our maths learning today! We did some counting of different vehicles and recorded our answers on the carpet-we were also thinking about greater than and fewer than different numbers!! Amazing guys- Well done and keep up the great work!
Mrs Wallace 😊
Class 7 continue to amaze me with the fantastic work they are doing linked to our mini-expedition, Sun, Moon and Stars. Today they critiqued the famous Vincent Van Gogh painting, Starry Night and, I’m sure you will agree, produced a wonderful interpretation of it to be displayed in our class.
Take a look at the images of their work in progress and the finished piece below…
Well done to today’s Learning Legend Lilly, who has been a Motivated Mo asking and answering some really tricky questions.
Great job Angel!
Keep it up!
Hello everyone.
Another fantastic day was had by us all again today in Class 7. We had lots of chances to use our phonic skills while completing our transition activities this morning and learned a new song this afternoon. We are all trying very hard to remember our new keeping safe routines and have made a set of class norms to help us remember these as well as those relating to our learning.
We have listened to everyone who was in class read over the past two days and have assigned new book bands to most children. We will begin to send out reading packs next week. Books will be changed on Tuesday’s and Friday’s like last year. Thanks to everyone who has continued to practise reading skills with the children during lock down. Your efforts really have made a difference!

Our learning legend today is Cohen who was a Can do Colin in all his tasks. Well done Cohen. Keep up the good work.
What a fantastic first day we have had in Class 7!
We have been very busy reminding ourselves of place value in Maths ending with some very thoughtful self-critique. We worked collaboratively while observing social distancing to generate and answer questions about the sun, moon and stars and even imitated the movements of the sun and moon with some very graceful actions.
I was blown away by how sensible and mature you all were in following our guidelines to keep everyone safe now we are all back together in school.
Well done to our first Learning Legend of the year Luna, who was a Connecting Connie today, making links with what she found out today to her previous learning.
Awesome start Class 7. It’s great to have you back!
It was a wonderful first day back in Year 2 today. There were a few nervous faces this morning but lots of smiles throughout the day!
We all got a little bit tired in Crew Wallace this afternoon, but we kept up our great learning attitudes throughout the day.
I wanted to say a huge thank you to all of the children for being so fabulous on their first day back and for all parents being really positive on what was no doubt an anxious day for them too.
Can’t wait to do it all over again tomorrow! We were so busy today that I did not manage to take any photographs but I will try to get some before the week is out so that you can see the children in the classroom.

Above are three links to different animals at Edinburgh Zoo where you can watch them live throughout the day via a webcam. This is a great opportunity to see these animals at different parts of the day and what they get up to.
Activity Ideas:
1. Draw a picture of your favourite animal that you’ve been watching.
2. Write a description about your favourite animal.
3. Fact File/A day in the life of a… your favourite animal.
Have fun guys and email in any activities that you complete 🌟
Hi everyone
Here I am sharing my book with Jersey at her house.
Did you know research shows there is no more important activity for preparing your child to succeed as a reader than reading aloud together?
See you soon

Evening everyone.
Here I am snuggled up with Victoria while we read my book in bed!
Did you know reading at bedtime can prepare your body for sleep by helping you to relax?
See you soon

Hi everyone. I had a smashing time at Emilea’s last night. I love spending time with class 6 and finding out what they get up to when they aren’t in school. She took me to musical theatre before we shared my book at bedtime.
Did you know that reading helps young kids learn to focus and pay attention as they listen to a story?
See you soon
