A Busy Time in P2!

Leave a comment

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!
