Back In Time For A Banquet!

Last Friday we went to a medieval banquet!  Our kitchen staff made it all nice for us.  Lorraine, Sharon and the other ladies worked so hard and we had an amazing time.  They made the gym hall dark and we had candles.  We had made crowns and swords and helmets and hats at home so we could pretend to be real people from the Middle Ages.  Mrs Wallace, Ms Galt and Mr McKay dressed up too!

The kitchen staff made a big long table with a white tablecloth and we had bread, grapes, meat, cheese and pottage.  Pottage is like very thick soup.  In the Middle Ages poor people had pottage just made of vegetable that they grew themselves and also some herbs. (We are growing herbs in our classroom!)  Rich people had meat as well as the vegetables in their pottage.

After we had our banquet,  we had some entertainment.  There was jousting, sword fighting, some jokes from the jesters and medieval dancing.  It was so much fun and we learned a lot more about the Middle Ages by actually pretending to be there!

A huge thank you to Lorraine and her staff for helping us to have such a lovely time!

 

Election Fever!

Primary 2 are celebrating the end of their mini-election this afternoon with a post-election party.  (If the photo is a little fuzzy it is because we are very enthusiastic about our dancing!)

We formed parties with cool logos and slogans and decided what our policies would be.  Then we created manifestos and elected party leaders by thinking very hard about the things we would most like to happen in Kirkhill Primary.  Here are some of the children showing off the rosettes for their parties!

On Thursday we had a secret ballot to vote for our favourite candidates.

 

On Friday the results were in!
Ms Edmonstone came to announce the winners.   The Trusted Party from 2b won!  Some of us really liked their manifesto so we voted for them.

We have all learned so much about elections.  When we are old enough to vote we will know exactly what to do!

Friday Fun!

Some of us have been busy with Hama beads and Kapla in the atrium!  How do you like our creations?  (We took the photos by ourselves too!)

Week Beginning 03.05.19

Although we don’t issue homework in June, we are posting a couple of high-frequency word lists because some parents had said that they would like to revise these over the holidays.  Remember not to tackle too many words at once – it’s better to make sure that your child is completely confident about reading/writing one small set of words before you introduce any new ones.

Click here for a list of useful words.
