Sharing the learning
Primary 2 drew their own reindeers.
Then used an app called ChatterKid to make their own animations!
They had to capture an image and use the record functions to record the speech. Pupils were then able to add filters, stickers and text.
Unfortunately I wasn’t able to share them all but there will be plenty more opportunities!
As part of our topic we have been looking at traditional toys. Primary 2 created their own kites using paper and art straws. We had the perfect windy day to test them out.
This was an excellent opportunity to practise essential cutting skills.
Mrs Reid gave Primary 2 a challenge to help Rapunzel escape the tower.
Pupils had to work within a group to find a solution. They had a variety of materials to use and they had to evaluate the best solutions.
Activities like this really require a growth mindset as sometimes the first strategy doesn’t work and they have to find another solution.
There was great conversation in the class about the benefits and limits of the materials.
Build a bridge task
Primary 2b were given the challenge of constructing a bridge collaboratively using play dough and pasta.
They had to consider the uses of both materials and the best way to use them. Through exploring they were able to find ways to make the structure freestanding. Then they discussed different techniques and shapes.
As you can see our final designs are excellent!
