We have been learning to tell historical fact from fiction. We looked at two different types of Viking helmets and decided which one we thought was historically accurate. Next we followed instructions on how to make our own Viking helmet using card and tin foil. ๐ช

Viking jewellery
Following on from our lesson on Viking clothing, we learned about the popularity of jewellery and its role in showing a personโs status and wealth during the Viking times. The more intricate and detailed, the wealthier the wearer. We made our own Viking jewellery using pasta, cardboard, tin foil, string and paint. Some of us challenged ourselves to create a pattern in Elder Futhark Runes, the viking alphabet. We love how these turned out. Have a look at the step by step photos below. ๐
Christmas Crafts
We had a great afternoon making hot chocolate reindeer cones for our Christmas craft this year. These were really simple yet fun to make. โ๏ธ๐ด
We used the following resources:
- Clear cone bags
- Red pom poms
- Brown pipe cleaners
- Googly eyes
- Hot chocolate
- Mini marshmallows
We also decorated Christmas bags for our crafts whilst listening to Christmas music. ๐๐ถ
3D Model Making
Primary 2 have been busy using different materials to construct a 3D model of an area within Barrhead. We are using our knowledge of Barrhead and google maps to identify what we should include in our model. We have been learning to work in small groups and share out responsibilities.
