Science: Scottish Power
P2/3 had two visitors from Whitelee Windfarm who came to talk to us about wind energy. They showed us what they have to wear to climb to the top of the wind turbines to fix them. The children loved trying on the harness and looking at pictures from the top of the turbines.
Brilliant work P2/3!
Numeracy: Measurement
Yesterday P2/3 were learning about capacity. The children had the chance to investigate if different sized containers could hold the same amount of water.
Great work P2/3!
Science: Electricity
Yesterday in P2/3 we were learning how to build an electrical circuit. The children had the chance to try and build a working circuit with a battery, a bulb and a switch. We learned the symbols for these and drew our own circuits. The children loved seeing their bulbs light up!
Fab work P2/3!
In Primary 2/3, we have been learning about division. We have learned the different vocabulary that is linked to division (equal groups, sharing between, dividing, divided by) and the symbol used to show division. The pupils have enjoyed some multi-sensory tasks to help them complete division calculations as well as starting to carry out written division calculations.
Science: Colourful Magic Trick
Today in P2/3 we used kitchen roll to carry out a colourful magic trick. In the first picture it looks as though the picture has only been drawn with black pen but when we added the kitchen roll to water the colour appears. Ask your children how they did it!
Brilliant work P2/3!
Technology: Scratch
Today P1/2/3 really enjoyed learning about Scratch from our visitor from JP Morgan. Our visitor taught us how to use different features in Scratch and showed us some programmable robots.
Fab work P1/2/3!
Numeracy: Length
This morning P2/3 were measuring the length of things outside using a trundle wheel. The children loved counting the clicks from the trundle wheel.
Great work P2/3!
Science: Walking Water
This afternoon we spoke about how water travels. P2/3 set up an experiment that showed how water could travel from one cup to another using a kitchen roll as our bridge.
Fab work P2/3!
Science: Chemical Reactions
This morning Miss Hosie visited P2/3 to teach us about chemical reactions. The children predicted what would happen when mints were poured into bottles of coke. Then we went outside to test our theories.
Messy work P2/3!
