We have been learning about Katie Morag. Katie has two grandmothers who are very different. Katie lives on the Isle of Struay which is actually the Isle of Coll. We have been looking at maps of the UK and found the Isle of Coll which is just off the West coast of Scotland. The lady who wrote the Katie Morag books grew up on the Isle of Coll.

Although we are all glad to be back at school, we wanted to share our favourite memory of the Spring holidays…………………………

This morning, we went outside to watch the Solar Eclipse. We made Pinhole Viewers out of paper plates to make sure that we were safe. When we got up to the pitch, we saw the moon and the sun. Although it was very cloudy, we managed to see some of it. This is how some of us felt………………………….

Imogen- “excited”

 

Matthew- “flabbergasted”

 

Heather “nervous”

 

Atiya “happy”

 

Alex “scared”

 

When we got back to class, we drew what we saw using yellow for the sun and black for the moon.

This week we have been discussing different feelings. We have learned that it’s ok to feel angry but it’s how you deal with it, that really matters.  There are lots of different ways to deal with anger……………………..

• Counting to 10 and staying calm
• Taking a time out
• Speaking to the person who made you feel angry
• Walking away

In P2, we always help out each other and we know that we don’t always have the same feelings, at the same time as our friends.

 

 

Happy New Year! We have all come back from the holidays, ready to work hard. In Science, we have been finding out about different materials. We did an experiment to see which materials were waterproof and found out that the plastic bag was waterproof.

We have made target cards that we are going to keep on our desks, to remind us of our targets that we are working towards.
