In Primary 1.2 we have been very interested to learn about different countries this month. We’ve been exploring using technology to find out about how other people live and have loved visiting other countries together be using the street view.

We’ve talked about where we live, different countries and continents and next we’ll start learning how different people speak different languages. The children enjoyed making their own flags and learning some of the names of the different countries.

The cold weather has been a great opportunity to get outside for some sensory walks. We’ve been thinking about how the weather is changing during winter and how this effects what we can see, here, smell and feel. The children worked together to draw pictures and write about how they are using their different senses. They’ve been very motivated to learn about the weather which followed on from our weather recording activities last month.
