P6A

On the 25th of January we celebrated 'Burns Day'. Every stage in the school has learned a famous poem by Robert Burns. P6A learnt 'To a Mouse.'  

Primary 6 have been learning a foreign language and P6a have been learning German. They have created a wall in their classroom with some of the German words and activities they have been doing.

In art they have been creating their own silhouettes. Instead of making them of other people they have been making them of themselves.

The Primary 6 topic this term is the Victorians. They have been finding out lots of different facts about Queen Victoria and her lifestyle.  

P6B

P6B have been learning "To a Mouse" as a Burns poem and are also trying to use Scots language when in the classroom.

They have also been writing acrostic poems about their Burns poem. When they were read aloud, they sounded amazing!

P6B have been learning about the Victorians as a topic .They have completed silhouettes of themselves with black paper, just like those from the Victorian times.
