Our #WordOfTheWeek this week is ‘ephemeral’. Ask us what it means and if we can use it in a sentence! #WordAware #NewVocabulary #Literacy #WordRap #P7Team 😊
This morning in P5 we practiced our coding skills. We got hands-on with micro:bits, programming them to react to different noise levels 🎶🔊. From quiet whispers to loud claps, our code displayed different images 💻⚡
We launched our new topic ‘Africa’ yesterday. While the music was on we had to search for jigsaw 🧩 pieces to complete each image and then link these images together to guess the theme! #IDL #topic #Africa #launch #MTV #think #puzzle #explore #bigquestions #littlequestions
We used the scene from yesterday to create a storyboard detailing the main events. We used pictures, speech, description and phrases from the text, as well as the thoughts of characters! #classnovel #literacy #reading #mainidea #summarising #understanding #comprehension
As a class reward for getting all the smirks in the jaur, we enjoyed an exciting visit to meet the school gerbils, Moon and Snowy.
Our #PupilOfTheWeek this week has settled into his new school very well and is now showing more confidence as he interacts with his peers and school staff! 🌟 #Certificate #Proud #P7Team 😊

This afternoon during Drama we explored how to use facial expressions and body language to bring emotions to life. From happy 😃 and excited 🤩 to sad 😢, nervous 😬, surprised 😲, tired 🥱, and angry 😡. Amazing work everyone!
What a lovely start to our week - fun spelling activities for our new phoneme ‘a-e’. Our fortune tellers were a big hit. Use them to practise for your spelling test! #Literacy #ActiveSpelling #Fun
Our pupils have been busy coding @microbit.org devices — creating scrolling name badges and digital dice that change when shaken! 🎲✨ Fantastic use of block coding skills and creative problem-solving in action!💡💻 #STEM #Coding #Microbit #EdTech @connectedfalk.bsky.social @digilearnfalk.bsky.social
Having fun with maths today playing the Shannon Switching Game from @edinburghuni.bsky.social 🎯 A brilliant mix of strategy, logic, and teamwork — proving that maths is anything but boring! 🧩💡 #MathsFun #STEM #ProblemSolving #Education
