This week is Maths Week Scotland.  Our first challenge was to create a Symmetrical Lego Challenge. We had the choice to work on our own, with a partner or individually. Here are our symmetrical

We have been busy since the start of term in Primary 3. We are all settled into our new classroom and have been working on lots of different activities.  Until all our forms are back we can not show our faces so here are some examples of our work on our Literacy, Numeracy and Art wall. Also we have completed our Class charter and we voted on Stitch to be our picture.

What a great way to finish the year with a fantastic trip to Summerlee and an ice cream van visit 🍦🍦🍦

Thank you for all your hard work this year, have a wonderful summer and lots of luck for Primary 3 🌟🤩🌟🤩

Mrs Brown 💜

We’ve spent lots of time this month learning about ‘Life in the Past.’

We had a great afternoon with lots of our grandparents. We learned how their childhood was different to ours. A huge thank you to each grandparent for taking the time to visit us.

We have really enjoyed learning to play Beetle Drive. We wrote instructions and enjoyed a game with our grandparents.

This month we revised what to do if we found a conscious casualty and learned how to help an unconscious casualty. We are all confident in checking for danger, clearing an airway, putting a casualty into the recovery position and calling 999 for emergency help.

A couple of Primary 6 pupils helped us to learn UNO! We love it 😍

Finally, we have spent some time in the big playground, learning what gate and path to use coming to school in Primary 3 and had fun playing with our friends on the pitch 🤩

Dance 🕺 🪩

We have been learning how to move our bodies in different styles of dance. We have been exploring dance styles from around the world 🌎  So far we have explored ceilidh dancing, line dancing and Bollywood dancing. Apologies for my teacher voice!!

We have been widening our understanding of the past by exploring and investigating objects that were used in years gone by.

Thank you to all our visitors for coming along and cheering us on at Sports Day today. We had a great time! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️❤️💙💚💛

On Monday we prepared for Sports Day with lots of athletics and skipping!

In Maths we have enjoyed exploring symmetry and deepening our understanding of symmetrical patterns.

In Spelling we have been scoring so highly in our weekly spelling quizzes. Thank you for all the support with spelling homework – it is really paying off! Lots of full marks the last few weeks!!  

In maths we have also been exploring 3D shape. We are learning how to identify a 3D shape and identify and name it’s properties including faces, edges and vertices. 

Bonjour! In French we are learning how to identify and say words to do with The Outdoors! We will practise our new vocabulary during Muddy Movers . We have been writing more in French and using visual aids to support us.

In ICT we have been learning how create a Google Drive Slideshow. We can log in to Glow, access Google Drive and create a slideshow. We are learning how to insert an image safely and change the background colour. We find this really fun! You can practise this at home if you simply log into your glow account. 

A huge well done to everyone who did a solo talk in front of the class 🌟🌟🌟

You were all very clear and confident speakers, looked at your audience and answered questions from your classmates. I loved learning more about you, your life and your interests 👏👏👏

Another month of learning in p2 and March is over already!

We had so much fun helping to raise money for Comic Relief on Red Nose Day.

We have been learning how to measure liquids and calculate volume and capacity. We can convert millilitres into litres (in steps of 1000) and we can make sensible estimates about measurements of water.

We had fun visiting the library at The Foundry as well as celebrating World Book Day in class 📚

We are learning how recognise sounds and words in Mandarin with Miss Xu. It is really exciting exploring a language and culture different to our own.

We had a very special visit from the Fire Brigade! 🔥

We have been learning how to skip using the ropes. We are getting better each time. We love learning how to use skipping to help improve our fitness, burn some energy and most importantly …have fun!
