Primary 6/7 - Friday 7th February 2025

Primary 6/7 have had a wonderful week leading up to the February break, with lots of great learning activities in class as well as working hard to prepare for sharing our Burns Supper with parents and carers. On Friday morning, we discussed our week in school and decided that we would like to share these thoughts about our learning:

Tickled Pink (things that we feel went well):

• We continued to enjoy creating our Gala Day art for the competition to design the front cover of the Seafield Gala Day programme. We enjoyed finding out about different events over the decades as we designed our artwork
• We enjoyed reviewing our learning about Time in Maths and then moving on to learn about Distance, Speed and Time and the formulae needed to work out these calculations
• We also enjoyed working on our Scottish word art which was part of our mini focus on Scotland over the last few weeks. We also enjoyed hearing the story “Kidnappit” which is a Scots language graphic novel version of the book “Kidnapped” by Robert Louis Stevenson
• Our Primary 7s enjoyed their online fractions transition lesson with Mr McConville this week as they found it easy because of the work that we have done recently in class on fractions and decimals
• We continue to enjoy our focus on badminton in PE as we are making improvements with our hand/eye coordination and control of the racket and shuttle
• We continued to enjoy getting ready to present our Burns Supper for our parents and carers

Green for Growth (things that we need to do to improve our learning):

• Some of us found learning about Distance, Speed and Time a bit tricky in Maths and we will continue to focus on this after the February break
• We also felt that learning the pronunciation of phrases for sports and activities in French was quite tricky
• Lastly, we also thought it was a bit difficult getting started with our artwork for the Gala Day competition entry as the “Through the Decades” theme was a bit hard to understand and transfer into an A4 design

The girls and boys in class were all absolutely fantastic in our Burns Supper on Friday. We hope that you all enjoyed it, if you were able to make it along.

Our school value award winners for this week are Darcey and Faith.

Well done for a brilliant week, P6/7 and an absolutely magnificent P6/7 Burns Supper presentation for our parents and carers on Friday morning. Have a lovely February break and we look forward to seeing the children back in school on Tuesday 18^th February.
