We had great fun today learning about Autumn and opening our classroom pumpkin patch. The children even linked this with other seasons making a pumpkin snowman! We talked about Turnips being hollowed and carved for lanterns many years ago and how we now use pumpkins as the Halloween tradition. Well done Primary 2.6!
We worked on place value problems today in P2. We enjoyed working with the place value cubes together.
Primary 2.6 had a great day celebrating Mearns Highland games and having a Scottish themed lunch at lunchtime.
As part of our Mearns Masters we have been researching and learning about plastic pollution in our Oceans and the effects this is having on the sea creatures who live there.
Primary 2.6 decided to make toy boxes for toys which were better for the environment and did not include any plastic to help save our sea creatures!
We had a great time making our boxes and we can’t wait to paint them to see the finished product.
This week in Primary 2.6 we have been working on symmetry in mathematics. The children enjoyed creating symmetrical patterns in our outdoor area using sticks and leaves. We have also been spending time playing in the continuous provision areas.
