\np2\/3c: we have been exploring castles as we begin to look at the elements of Fairy Tales.
\nWe have used the internet to find pictures of castles – especially those that some of us have visited and we have mind-mapped what we know already about them – and what we want to learn.
\nWe have had great fun this week working co-operatively in a technology challenge as we designed, planned and created our group junk model castle, complete with moving parts!<\/p>\n
\nNext week we are looking forward to learning more about castles and will be planning castle themed activities for our class. \u00a0We will also begin work on money in our numeracy learning.<\/p>\n
\nWe all did very well learning and reciting our poems. \u00a0We have even learned a few greetings and phrases in Gaelic!<\/p>\n
\nPrimary 3a, 3b and 2\/3c are enjoying our Scottish topic in the run up to Burns Night. We are learning Scottish songs, dances and poems and looking at the work of a Scottish artist. We are listening to Scottish stories and talking about the Scottish words we know.
