Life Savers in P2! HEARTSTART

We have been learning what to do

in emergency situations,

who to ask for help

and what we can do to save lives.

 

SDC11903Finlay  and Katie from P5 demonstrated what to say and do if someone is unconscious. SDC11906Emma and Niamh from P5 showed us how to put someone in the recovery position.
SDC11910Call 999 for an emergency. SDC11908Sarah and Kenzie worked in a pair to practise putting a person into the recovery position.
SDC11909Lucy checked for danger before approaching Oliver to offer her help. SDC11907Sarah shouted for help. She gently shaked the casualty to check if he was conscious. Next she checked for signs of normal breathing.
SDC11904Finlay gave very clear instructions on the steps to follow.

P5 and P2 worked together to share learning and possibly save a life one day. A most important lesson!

We developed our knowledge of how
to care for animals and where food
comes from.

Achievements in P2

We have been using our ICT skills to record some of our achievements from P2.  We used Microsoft Office to open a Word document.  Then we typed sentences. Next we inserted images from clip art to illustrate our sentences.  Finally we saved our files.

We discussed all the knowledge and skills we have been learning and practising this year.  We wrote ‘I can’ sentences as part of our ‘Growth Mindset’ activities.  We set new learning targets.

Working Together To Get The Job Done!

Primary 2 are learning to make choices to further develop our own skills.  We choose from a range of learning opportunities.  Sometimes we work in pairs, in groups or with an adult. We all take responsibility for keeping our classroom and resources tidy.

 

SDC11750“You can choose things to do. You can learn different things and have fun.” Olivia Mason SDC11751“It helps you if you are stuck at a word. It means that you can write on your own”. Arlos Barsanti
SDC11725” I am learning to recycle litter and sharing my invention with Primary 1″ Jamie McFarlane

When I Grow Up……..

Primary 2 are finding about different careers. Mr Connell came to visit us and explain the skills needed to be fire fighter.

Mrs Brown is an osteopath. She told us how she helps people with back pain. She told us that her family all work together as osteopaths.

Look at our fantastic Word documents with our future careers!
