Sharing the learning from our P7b class at Clovenstone Primary School.

What do I hear during lunchtime? A rare gem-children counting to 8 outside and practising their Scottish country dancing 😊 proud. Can you guess the dance? @MissBrdarP7b @Clovenstone

Primary 7 are really enjoying our mini Scots topic. We created our own tartan, made Scots words postcards and wrote our own comics using Scots language 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

P6/7 and P7 started a mini Scots topic this week. We sang some funny Scots songs about Skinny Malinky and a chap called Donald who’d lost his troosers; we began learning a traditional Scottish dance during PE; and we read and recreated our own Oor Wullie comic strips 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Welcome back Primary 7! It’s so good to see you all after the holidays.

[Irma Brdar @MissBrdarP7b]

Well done, Ania! I’m so proud of you being the leader of your own learning #proud 💜

When one of the P7s @Clovenstone is gifted a lego set and decides to build and create an animation, it makes you realise they are listening. She has taken the skills learned and extended them massively. One very proud digital teacher. @DigiLearnEdin

Well done to our P6 and P7 friends for performing today infront of P3-7: very festive and charming 🎄✨🎵@Clovenstone

Did you know that Santa doesn’t arrive by reindeer-pulled sleigh in Kenya? He rides a camel instead!

[Irma Brdar @MissBrdarP7b]

P7 researched the ways in which different countries around the world celebrate Christmas before presenting their findings to the rest of the class. We took notes whilst listening and used these to create animations to show our learning. Thank you @DigiLearnEdin 🌎

Primary 7 have been learning about the Jewish Festival of Light called Hanukkah which is observed for 8 nights and days beginning on the 25th of December. We learned about the significance of the menorah; what a sufganiya is; and began making dreidels to play 🕯️

[Irma Brdar @MissBrdarP7b]

P6/7 and P7 enjoyed making our interpretation of fifteen. We taste tested along the way and can definitely confirm that they tasted good!

[Irma Brdar @MissBrdarP7b]

Thank you Mr Attrill @WHHS_Edin for teaching us about 2D and 3D shapes. Here are our finished Christmas cubes but I’m unsure how many sweets actually made it back to @Clovenstone!

As Michael Bublé once famously sang, it’s beginning to look a lot like Primary 7 getting into the festive spirit 🎄

[Irma Brdar @MissBrdarP7b]

Thank you for putting on a great panto this morning @WHHS_Edin.

Primary 7 visited the @museumonmound yesterday to participate in some workshops to investigate artefacts used as money from different cultures; to explore and create our own coins; and to compare and contrast past and present banknotes. Ask us about cacao beans and seashells!

[Irma Brdar @MissBrdarP7b]

P6, P6/7 and P7 made a commitment to take action to combat climate change and its impacts. As part of our Make a Difference project, we collected hundreds of crisp packets to create artwork and promote recycling around the school.

What a lovely lunch with some lovely Primary 7’s 🎅

[MissSCPS @MissScps]

Big thanks to @DigiLearnEdin for today's live code along lesson. P7 @Clovenstone really enjoyed creating a Christmas themed game. @Schools_Digital

We had a sproutacular delivery today from a special visitor who will be arriving soon! Primary 7 enjoyed using their estimation skills to make a sample count before putting forward their best educated guesses! Well done Callie, Dominic, Hanan and Ania 🥦
