Our last few days together in P2! How emotional I feel. This year has gone by so quickly and the growth that has happened for each child has been absolutely amazing. I have been so lucky to be a part of their journey.

Thank you so much to all the families for all of their support over the year. Good luck to you all! I hope to see your lovely faces again.

Lots of Love

This has been our final week together in P2 😢! How quickly the year has gone by and what a lovely time we’ve had. It has been wonderful seeing each and every child learn, grow and develop. We’ve had so many highlights- our Tentsmuir trip, the Rio Cinema Day and our outdoor learning trips to the woods have all been great.
A big thank you to all the families for their help over the year. We enjoyed our shared learning events where we had to learn to sew and also create an a space craft to keep a tea cake safe!
It has been such a pleasure to teach you all in P2!
Good luck for p3 and I’ll just be through the curtain to wave and say hello! I’m so proud of you all.
lots of love,

We have been using this week to revisit maths and numeracy learning from over the year. We have played games and worked in pairs to work on our quick mental math strategies.

We brought our tricky words to an end, ready to get new ones in P3. We have been continuing to edit sentences and create our own for friends to ‘fix’.

Miss Donaldson had the class for some time on Friday. They discussed play opportunities over primary 2 and different religions.

We all had a lovely chat about our best memories of primary 2 and began to create some art based around them.

Have a lovely weekend.

This week we had fun finishing out races and challenges for Sports Day. We did the egg and spoon, the relay race and also target zone!
We were very excited to find out our new classes for next year and we have been making a list of questions for our new teachers.
It was the final Pupil Council meeting this week and we would all like to say a big thank you to Sophie for representing our class.
In Health and Wellbeing we have been talking about managing change and our feelings.

This week we have been very busy!

We have been able to write letters to our P3 teacher to introduce ourselves. We included lots of interesting questions, a fact about us and our goals for next session.

We had a little time reminder. We worked on our mental maths and were really fast and solving some problems.

We had a wet but fun sports day! Well done to everyone who took part.

P3 had created some games using magnets and we were very lucky to get to play some of them and learn the rules.

We have some special cards in our bags.

Have a lovely weekend!

We had lots of fun preparing for Sport’s Day this week. We practised for the different races and completed the trim trail water challenge. We also played football matches for house points. There was lots of good learning about good sportsmanship and working as a team.
Our class trip on Wednesday was an adventure. We learned about fire safety and cooked pancakes on an open fire. We also went on a long walk to explore a new area in the local community. There were opportunities for free play, arts and crafts and team challenges.

Today we celebrated the new celebrity in our class! Well done to Zara who came 2nd for her joke in the Voice Box competition. We are all so proud.

We wrote a letter to Mr Mouse, to warn him about the big bad things he might come across in the woods.

We began making some beautiful cards.

We have been focusing on how we can edit our own and other people’s sentences. We have been able to act like teachers and remind everyone of the correct punctuation!

The whole school came together with Miss Donaldson to share their reflections on this school year.

Have a lovely weekend!

Tuesday and Wednesday with Mrs Meiklem

We enjoyed writing about our long weekends this week. We practised talk letters and letters with tails in handwriting. In spelling we are learning about magic e words and practising blending using consonant blend sounds like fl and sw.

We continued to use directional language to direct a partner robot around the playground.
In numeracy we are practising mental maths strategies.

Yesterday the class had Miss Alan.

Today we have been looking at using our editing skills to sort some mixed up and wonky sentences. Lots of us were able to re-order them correctly and add in the appropriate punctuation.

We have considered how we can pay for things under £1 and give the correct change.

We continued our perspective art.

We have been able to share some of our long weekend plans.

Have a lovely long weekend everyone!

This week we played lots of catching games in PE. We practised the hand positions and were trying hard to look at the ball.
We are nearly finished our division block in numeracy and we have been using objects to share equally to help us figure out division problems.
In topic we were learning about the different types of wildlife found in different locations around Scotland.
We used loose parts to make our own obstacle courses and used positional language to direct a partner through the course.
In French we were learning the words for different emotions.
