Primary 2, I was impressed when reading your posts about all the different learning opportunities this term.
Your inventions and the level of effort put in to preparing your models,design drawings and presentations were absolutely fabulous. I hope that you continue to enjoy your regular trips out and about in the local community and indeed to the Glasgow Science Centre. The confident presentations of your weather forecasts using new and interesting vocabulary were well received by your teachers and your friends.
Have a happy and healthy Spring holiday.
I am very proud of you!

Primary 2 worked really hard to prepare their own weather forecasts. They learned lots of new weather vocabulary and locations. Miss Thomson thought they were very professional!
Primary 2 had a visit from the campus cop and we talked about ‘Stranger Danger’ and she taught us all about how to stay safe!
Primary 2.1 had a Christmas reading challenge which was to read a book while drinking hot chocolate with marshmallows and bring in a picture to share on our blog.
Ramona read The Snail and the Whale and Kyle read The Day the Crayons Came Home. Kyle liked the part when “the crayon said stop but the man didn’t hear and squished the crayon.”

The boys and girls in Primary 2 were extremely enthusiastic (on a pretty chilly day) to go on a litter pick to the Orry. They actually collected a whole bin bag of litter!
