82 pages and 5 months later… my thesis is finally ready to submit! I’m so proud and happy that I was able to transform my love of dogs into a dissertation! Of course a special mention goes to the inspiration behind this topic, Simba! 🐶👩🏻‍🏫#animalassistedintervention #AAI

P4 created birds nests using natural materials in our playground. #outdoorlearningstnics #p4stnics

P4 have been learning about standard units of measurement. Today we consolidated our learning by applying our skills to make some yummy chocolate-chip biscuits!🍪 #numeracystnics #metaskillsstnics #dywfstnics

[WL St Nicholas PS and ELC @wlstnicholasps1]

Amazing collaboration, creativity, critical thinking and sense-making displayed by P4 learners as they worked together to build a monsoon-proof shelter as part of their rainforest learning! #pblstnics #stemstnics #metaskillsstnics

P4 were very excited to celebrate their sacrament of First Holy Communion with a cake to share! We are very proud of our amazing learners who worked so hard to prepare for their special day 🙏🏻🍰 #rercstnics #believingandachievingstnics

Primary 4 enjoyed their annual trip to Carfin Grotto where Fr John said Mass, told them about the relics in The Reliquary and they searched for statues of different saints around the grounds. #p4stnics #rercstnics

P4 have been working towards building a more sustainable school through their project-based learning. Today we built our very own bug hotels as we want to increase biodiversity and wildlife in our playground! #outdoorlearningstnics #pblstnics

[WL St Nicholas PS and ELC @wlstnicholasps1]

P4 were creative and designed a new character to add to their class novel ‘The Diary of a Wimpy Kid’ and they brought their characters to life. #p4stnics #literacystnics #digitallearningstnics

P4 have been working on using equal groups to multiply by 3, 6 and 9. Today we braved the drizzle to take our learning outdoors! ☂️🌳#outdoorlearningstnics #numeracystnics #believingandachievingstnics

[WL St Nicholas PS and ELC @wlstnicholasps1]

P4 have been developing their meta-skills and boosting their wellbeing through creative play and woodwork! We were using our focusing, initiative, sense-making and collaborating skills. #metaskillsstnics #stemstnics #childrensmentalhealthweek #hwbstnics

[WL St Nicholas PS and ELC @wlstnicholasps1]

P4 have been evaluating all of their 'human organs' science learning through creating their very own Blooket! We worked collaboratively to generate some tricky questions and then of course, enjoyed playing our own quiz together! #digitallearningstnics #stemstnics

[WL St Nicholas PS and ELC @wlstnicholasps1]

As part of a STEM challenge, P4 had to make a paper airplane from paper/card of their choice and then fly them to see which plane went the furthest. They discussed possible reasons for the differences. #stemstnics #p4stnics

[WL St Nicholas PS and ELC @wlstnicholasps1]

For Science, P4 have been learning about the major organs in our body. Today they learned about the lungs and made their own set using a variety of materials. #sciencestnics #p4stnics

[WL St Nicholas PS and ELC @wlstnicholasps1]

P4a had a brilliant morning developing their meta-skills and creative play! We identified that we were using our adapting, creativity, focusing and sense-making skills to achieve these masterpieces! #metaskillsstnics #believingandachievingstnics

Another favourite outdoor learning lesson… fractions!! 🍂

[WL St Nicholas PS and ELC @wlstnicholasps1]

This week P4 have been exploring fractions through the natural environment. We have been using a variety of natural materials to show fractions of amounts and shapes and fractions on a number-line. #numeracystnics #outdoorlearningstnics #believingandachievingstnics

[WL St Nicholas PS and ELC @wlstnicholasps1]

P4 are learning about their major organs. They used a virtual tshirt to explore them and then researched their position and what they look like and recreated the human body. #p4stnics #sciencestnics #digitallearningstnics

[WL St Nicholas PS and ELC @wlstnicholasps1]

To mark Anti-Bullying Week, P4 focused on the theme of ‘respect’ and made podcasts to educate their peers about bullying. #p4stnics #digitallearningstnics #hwbstnics @wldigilearn @WlhwbChamps

[WL St Nicholas PS and ELC @wlstnicholasps1]

P4 created dioramas of Viking longhouses then used their digital skills to take photos of them and add to our class padlet along with some information that they have learned. #p4stnics #digitallearningstnics #pblstnics @wldigilearn

[WL St Nicholas PS and ELC @wlstnicholasps1]

P4 have been learning about money this week and today had a special visit to 'Monster Munchies'! We had to count out the correct amount of money to pay for out items and calculate our change accurately. We did a brilliant job! #numeracystnics #believingandachievingstnics

@FischyMusic P4 at St Nicholas Primary in Broxburn are listening and singing along!

[WL St Nicholas PS and ELC @wlstnicholasps1]

This week P4 have been working hard to share all of their Viking knowledge and research using Chatterpix! Collaboratively, we constructed our very own 3D Viking models, created an informative script and of course used our digital skills to bring our Vikings to life! #pblstnics
