Today was our last day with Mrs Bowers. She’s been working in our class for the last 5 weeks, hasn’t time gone quickly! A big thank you for helping us with our poetry, shape work and alien stories.
We’ll miss you.
Mrs C & P3
What did you enjoy learning with Mrs Bowers?
As part of our Space projects, Mrs C set us a task to design our own moon buggy. Some buggies had big wheels that could travel over uneven ground, some had grabbers to help collect moon rocks and some even had oxygen tanks for the driver! P3 thought of everything!
A big thanks to everyone who made a model and brought it to school, a special thanks to friends and family who helped to build them!
To celebrate the birth of Robert Burns, we’ve been learning some contemporary Scottish poems. Click on the links to hear us.

Susanne comes to our class every Thursday morning and teaches us music. Today she brought a large, navy blue box that had a few bashes in it! We had to guess what was inside. Ellie guessed it was her accordian! Susanne told us the accordian was used alot in Scottish music and she played us a few tunes.
Have you heard an accordian being played? Leave a comment telling us what you think.
We wrapped a rectangle of black paper with furry wool to make the cow’s body. We also wrapped a square piece of paper to make the head. The horns were made by cutting white card and the legs and eyes with black card.
We made our background 3D so it is able to stand by itself, then we added thistles and grass using oil pastels.

Our new topic is Earth, sun and moon, but we also wanted to learn a little about the rest of the solar system. We worked in groups of 3 or 4 to make a solar system. We had to use special skills such as cutting and sticking and also listening and sharing. We had to stick the planets in order and name them, we also have model planets hanging from our ceiling.
Leave a comment with a White hat fact about our solar system.
Today was our first day back after the Christmas holidays! Mrs C said we could have a snowman building competition, but unfortunately the snow was too icy to make a snowman! We drew in the snow and played follow the leader, it was nice to get outside for a wee while.
Today was the Christmas Party for Primary 3 and 4. We danced, played games and ate some party food; there was even a special visitor who came to give us a present!
Did you enjoy your Christmas party?
