In Taught Writing we have developed our skill of writing in different genres. We have created imaginary stories, recalled previous events and created our own advertisements! We have now started to use the CYPIC writing programme, with a focus on punctuation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IDL<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have covered two contexts for learning this term, \u2018Myths and Legends\u2019 and \u2018Performers and Performances\u2019. We enjoyed preparing for our pantomime and had the opportunity to take part in a drama workshop. We were also invited to the Arts Centre to watch St. Margaret\u2019s School For Girls\u2019 production of Les Miserables, which we enjoyed very much!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year, it was our turn to perform in the school\u2019s annual pantomime \u2018Pirates of the Curry Bean.\u2019&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We had the opportunity to perform in front of an audience, singing, dancing and acting out the story. We were responsible for ensuring we knew our lines, our voices were projecting and our singing was in tune! We also made our own props too! Although we had to practise a lot, we were all very proud of our performances!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will continue to learn from all areas of the curriculum next term and are looking forward to our new IDL context \u2018Our Cultural World.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-9.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"827\" src=\"https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-9.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18557\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.2385099177552008;width:345px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-9.png 1024w, https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-9-300x242.png 300w, https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-9-768x620.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-10.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"837\" height=\"390\" src=\"https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-10.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18558\" srcset=\"https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-10.png 837w, https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-10-300x140.png 300w, https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-10-768x358.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 837px) 100vw, 837px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-11.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"543\" src=\"https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-11.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18559\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.8858560794044665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-11.png 1024w, https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-11-300x159.png 300w, https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/image-11-768x407.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On behalf of everyone in Primary Seven we would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Screenshot-84.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"581\" src=\"https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Screenshot-84.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Screenshot-84.png 1024w, https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Screenshot-84-300x170.png 300w, https:\/\/st-peters.aberdeen.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Screenshot-84-768x436.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have had a very busy term 2 and can\u2019t believe how quickly the 8 weeks have gone by!
