Primary 2 have been working very hard. Take a look at some of the things we have been learning.

Penguin art and writing

We are very proud of our new wall display. We watched a video about Monty the Penguin and had to write what happened using sentence openers. We created our penguin pictures in art.

“We painted the background” – Amber

“We used chalk pastels, we smudged it” – Jessica

Symmetry activities

We have learned what a line of symmetry is and have been able to complete shapes to make them symmetrical. We can also use a mirror to check if a shape is symmetrical or asymmetrical.

We enjoy learning in lots of ways using playdo and iPads.

“We were trying to make symmetrical by doing a line of symmetry” – Logan

“We learned about making it the same” – Stephen

“We use a mirror to check if it is symmetrical” – Eilidh

Wonderful Writing

We have been working hard on writing in sentences. We are using openers to begin our sentences and make our writing more interesting.

We wear our special assessment glasses to look for the ‘stars’ in our writing. This week we were peer assessing.

“We wore the glasses to see if we had any sentence openers and to find it with a marker” – sophie

“We were writing about what happened from the beginning and the end.” – Paige
