A very informative resource to support transition for the new primary one children and families joining MPS in August. @GlendevonELC @maddistonps

P6 and @GlendevonELC children had great fun meeting in the school playground. Our P6 potential buddies are going to be great- there were smiles and excitement all round! #transitionsmattertome @MPS_Prim6and5 @MPS_Primary6 @MPS_7and6S

Look at the faces; pure joy and awe! When storytelling awakens the magic of books 💜📚🪄@MPS_Reading @WorldBookDayUK #lovingbooks

Lots of great moments today, but capturing @MPS_7and6S at the library was one of my favourites. They were all reading so intently, including Miss Scott enjoying an Alex Rider story! ❤️📚

A lovely day celebrating some Scottish traditions today!

[mrs russell @MPSMrsRussell]

Well done everyone. 👏We have celebrated and shared these successes in school - we are so delighted and proud of our very talented Maddiston writers. 🤗

So much talent in one room! Huge, huge thanks to our wonderful #WritingRammy winners for a funny, moving and inspiring evening. And, of course, thanks to @HelenMacKinven. Always so supportive. You've all made this a #BookWeekScotland to remember. #FalkirkWrites

When we play with small toys and resources, we are developing our motor skills and hand-eye coordination (and a long list of other skills). When we’re ready and motivated, we will choose to write through our play. ⁦@MpsMaddp2⁩

@MPS_PRIMARY4 There once was a class that I know,
Who tried to make limericks flow,
They tried to write their own,
Such fun, who’d have known?
Now we can’t wait to see them on show! @MPS_PRIMARY4

Great service at this hairdressers. A haircut with a story- where do I book my appointment? @MPS_Reading @scottishbktrust

[MPS_Primary2 @MpsMaddp2]

3/4 - Reading stories to each other. While L also gave J a haircut 📚💇🏽‍♀️

P1 and P2 ate their lunch in the dinner hall for the first time on Friday. From Monday, the school dinners will be served in the hall. ⁦@MpsMaddp2⁩ ⁦@MPS_Primary1⁩ ⁦@MpsPrimary⁩

We enjoyed listening to classmates reading the story from the beginning to the end. Fantastic reading! 👏

[mrs russell @MPSMrsRussell]

We explored patterns within stories. We loved the story “Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Can You See?” @MpsMaddp2

[mrs russell @MPSMrsRussell]

We were exploring many features of books today in P2M. Our word of the week is ‘spine’. Ask us to show you where you would find a spine on your body and on a book. We can even explain why our bodies and books need a spine. @MpsMaddp2

[mrs russell @MPSMrsRussell]

P2M were learning about patterns today. They used colour, shapes and objects to create their own patterns. ⁦@MpsMaddp2⁩
