P1 have made a castle in the story corner for the dragon. Keyon, Amy and Charlie are pleased with the new castle.

The friendly giant left some magic beans for primary 1 to grow. Ben, Hannah and Morgan are pleased to see the beans have been growing tall.

P1 made a beanstalk for Jack. The dragon asked us to and we were happy to help!

On the 8th of February P6 did a balloon experiment. We were learning about thrust. It required a balloon, string and tape. First we got some people to hold the string at each end. Then we attached the straw to the string then we attached the balloon to the straw with tape. It required the tape to allow it to stick.Then we let go of the balloon which it allowed it to move. It was fun.

In our class we have co-operative learning; in our learning group we were set a task, to create our own planet. So we did it took some time but in the end everyone finished. There were five planets and they were called Domo, Zeplin, Mars bar, Utopia, Duplo.The class had to choose a planet, after some decision, about 52% picked Utopia so that is the planet that we chose. For this planet we created new laws and rights and responsibilities.

In P6 we were learning about the planets and we all made up a rhyme to remember the order of our planets . The planets are in the order of Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Here is our rhyme to remember – Monkeys verse evil martians jumping sadly under Never land.
Hope this helps you remember.

Last week the children in primary 1 were amazed to find a scroll in their classroom, left by a friendly dragon! The dragon has lost all its fairy tale friends and has asked primary 1 to help rebuild fairy tale land! Primary 1 have already been reading lots more fairy tale stories and have built a new bean stalk for Jack. They still have a lot to do. More to follow over the next few weeks.

On Monday the 30th January 2012, Mairi Hedderwick, the author of the Katie Morag stories visited Easter Carmuirs Primary School. She read to children from nursery to primary 3 and everyone enjoyed the experience!
