Primary 2 have been looking at old things from Granny’s suitcase. They looked at old toys and then they worked together to make paper spills which they covered in papier-mâché in order to construct kites. Each kite was unique with colourful tails. Today was quite windy so we had fun testing them out.
Primary 2 are currently learning about the circus. They have all been busy making circus mobiles as an enterprising homework challenge. The results are all very impressive! The mobiles are bright and colourful, can move, can make a noise and some even light up! Emily was first to meet the challenge so hers went up on display at the middle of our big top. Now that everyone’s mobile is hanging up, room 4 looks great! We were learning about symmetry so we all made and painted some clown faces which are displayed in the corridor next to our clown self registration wall. We read the story of Dumbo and then made our own cute elephants from paper plates. This week we are writing our own Dumbo stories. At gym we have been practising circus skills. We have some excellent jugglers, knife throwers(well beanbag throwers), tightrope walkers and acrobats. When “The Big Kid Circus” came to Kilmarnock, primary 2 were their best customers! This week we are going to use shoe boxes to make a circus train full of animals. Hopefully Maya or Carmen will remember to bring in some of their rabbit’s bedding for the train carriages!
