At Primary 2A this week, we have been very very busy.  We have been doing lots of Katie Morag topic work.  We have been learning how to Scottish line dance and we have been making a new wall display starring Alecina the sheep from the Katie Morag books!

We have also been doing lots of water experiments to help us learn about volume and capacity.  One of the new units of measure we have been speaking about is a litre.  We used lots of juice bottles to carrying out our experiments and we now know how to find these in the Supermarket.

In our Hinduism and wedding topics, we have been learning about the clothes that people wear and the different traditions.  We have been amazed at how other cultures celebrate at weddings and have enjoyed their different stories.  In this topic, we have also learned about Diwali, the Festival of Light and a story about Rama and Sita.  It has been great to learn all of these new things.

We are all very excited for our Millport trip tomorrow.  We are looking forward to hearing about other boys and girls’ experiences of island life, just like Katie Morag!  We will let you know how we get on!
