Primary 2 really enjoyed learning a little about Robert Burns. We recited the start of To a Mouse and did a super job learning it!

 

 

We learned The Dashing White Sergeant.

 

We enjoyed tasting haggis and shortbread.

Ollie’s gran left us a treat too!YUM!

Thank you very much!

We sang heids, shooders, naps and taes! We watched The Gruffallo in Scots language too.

  Primary 2 have been learning about the work of the artist LS Lowry. We listened to him talking about his paintings, looked at some of these paintings and listened to a song called ‘Matchstick Men’ written about Lowry. Here are some paintings we liked:

We observed this factory painting.

Jenna- this has a lot of grey sky and smoke.

Abigail – I don’t like this because it has smoke. It makes me feel sad because it looks dark.

 

 This is a self portrait.

Lowry painted this portrait of himself. Oliver – he was young here. I think he looks smart.

 

Some people had fun at the beach.

Lowry painted this happy day. Alistair – the beach looks pretty good. Andrew – this painting has lots of colours. Corey – so this painting makes you feel happy.

 

We observed the buildings and people in his factory painting and made our own as you can see!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Look out everyone – lots of the children want to paint more Lowry style paintings at home too!

 

Elf on the Shelf was a good friend to P2b. They also told him how he should behave and really showed him how to do this.

Here are some special memories to share…
