It has been an absolute privilege for me to be part of this. We started with a single book back in November, and the children decided where to go from there. They were fantastic!

@HarrysmuirPS Those wee faces 😍. Hope they all had a blast.

P3 have arrived at Edinburgh zoo and have started exploring 😀🐧

@HarrysmuirPS @FairleyKim @wl_literacy Thank you @FairleyKim for inviting me to be a part of it. How lucky were our two boys who received an advance (and signed) copy of @J_C_Pearson's fabulous sounding new book. Happy reading boys!

Thank you for the opportunity to be in the audience, P6B and @FairleyKim @MrsHansen3 really enjoyed it 📚#Harrysmuirreads @wl_literacy

@HarrysmuirPS @MissAllenHPS These are fab!

P7A have been learning about different Pop Artists. They’ve created these brilliant onomatopoeia pieces in the style of Roy Lichtenstein 💥 @MissAllenHPS

@HarrysmuirPS @RossAuthor They were great questions. Loved @RossAuthor 's response to J's generating ideas question: Take how you normally see the world and play around with it. Ask "what if?..."

So impressed with these #ConfidentIndividuals who came up with questions for authors live and asked @RossAuthor them during the session 📚👏🏻 #Harrysmuirreads #ReadingSchools

Love seeing the enjoyment our book-clubbers are getting out of both reading and creating a variety of texts. #harrysmuirreads @scottishbktrust @FairleyKim @wl_literacy

After discussing the ending of Michael Morpurgo's 'The Snowman', P4-5 book club took on a tasty STEM challenge. Our edible snowmen looked great, but it wasn't long before they "melted". @HarrysmuirPS #harrysmuirreads

@missgorman_ @WL_STEM Thank you for the session and the chance to play! You've given us lots of inspiration to take away.

Today some staff came along to a professional learning opportunity on how #engineering can be taught through #play And what use would the session be if we didn’t have the chance to play? Check out the Rube Goldberg Machine and tensile bubbles! #HarrysmuirSTEM @WL_STEM

Proud moment for this P4 book-clubber who conquered his fear of reading aloud in public today. He was the first to volunteer to read, and he was absolutely fantastic. Thumbs up for raising confident individuals through reading. #harrysmuirreads @HarrysmuirPS @FairleyKim

P4-5 lunchtime bookclub had a lively discussion about what we would do if we saw an actual Snowman come to life. We are very much enjoying Michael Morpurgo's version of the classic story. Some of us opted to make our own spiral snowmen today. #harrysmuirreads

As part of our Burns' celebrations, P4B enjoyed exploring the Scots language today. After reading #neepsandtatties, we successfully managed to match up all the Scots words with their English equivalent. We ken them all! @NBMScotland @HarrysmuirPS #harrysmuirreads

"What happens if I am in both categories?" P4B turned themselves into Venn diagrams today when exploring various methods of information handling.

GIVEAWAY! To celebrate the publication of my eighth book with @HarperCollinsCh The Monkey Who Fell From The Future, I have 2 complete sets of my books to give away! RT and follow to enter. (If you already follow me, just RT). Winners chosen at random.#childrensbooks #middlegrade

Thank you to @MrsCarder_hps for a fantastic festive themed outdoor learning session yesterday. P4B were thrilled to crack the elves' code and get to the treats!

Our Reading ambassadors are DELIGHTED to announce that we have been awarded our SILVER reading accreditation from @scottishbktrust Thank you to our whole school community for your support with this 👏🏻 #Harrysmuirreads 📚 @wl_literacy

The P4 classes enjoyed a visit from @LevenseatWM this week. We learned a lot about the important work they do with our household waste. We also learned that we all throw away too much! #responsiblecitizens @HarrysmuirPS

So important! 🙌
