Miss Kinloch – Page 9

Today we started our new topic for Scottish Month. It is all about Scottish Myths and Legends.

We know Myths and Legends are stories from a long time ago that aren’t always true.

We have been learning about The Loch Ness Monster.

We have found out…

The Loch Ness Monster lives in a loch in Inverness.
The loch Ness Monster almost attacked someone a long time ago.
Nessie is hiding in the loch, we can’t always see him.
He might be hiding in his cave.
Nessie lays eggs.
He’s very big, has spikes and might have red eyes.
A long time ago someone found Nessie’s footprints! But it wasn’t real it was a hippos footprint.

Since hardly anyone has seen Nessie we all have very different ideas about how he might look.

We think Nessie might have…

A green body – Ava
Bumps on her – Katie P
Spikes – Zoe
Red eyes – Adam
Wear a hat – Iona
Green Scales – Lauren
Purple Lumps – Alaina
Blue Eyes – Rebecca
Feel Wet – Riley
Long Neck – Craig
A Sticky Tummy – Aaron W
A Black line of Spikes -Daryll
Yellow Spots and a Green Body – Lily
Be a girl – Aydin
Green body and yellow tummy- Ethan
Spikes – Aaron M
Sharp Teeth – Marcus

We took all our fantastic ideas and drew and coloured our own Nessie’s. We can’t wait to learn more about Scottish Myths and Legends!

Off to the Library!

Today we went to the library in Chryston high school.

We were going to get Ralfy the Rabbit because he stole a book from our library.

We thought the library was a good place to look because Ralfy really really LOVES books.

P1/2 went with P2, Miss Nisbet, Mrs McLoone, Robyn and Miss Kinloch.

At the library Miss Nisbet read Superworm to us. We like that book!

Then we found a letter from Ralfy. It was hiding in the bookshelf. Underneath the letter was our book ‘Mog’s Christmas!’.

We said ‘Thank you very much Ralfy’ because he returned our book just in time for Christmas!

Before we went back to school we said thank you to the lady we works at the library.

P1/2 had great fun at the library!

Christmas Jumper Day

Today is Christmas Jumper Day.

Don’t P1/2 look fabulous!!!

We all had lots of fun in the hall! (Even Mr Grant!)

Here we are with Primary 1 showing off our Christmas Jumpers!

Merry Christmas!!!

Electricity Sparks!

Today we were learning more about our electricity topic.

We were finding out how to stay safe around electricity.

We used the i-pads and a worksheet to find out about electrical hazards in our homes.

To share our learning we made a DO and DON’TS list to keep safe around electricity.

Thank you for reading our blog!

Scottish Book Week 1

P1/2 are taking part in the Scottish Book awards this year. We are very excited!

This week we have been reading ‘Never Tickle a Tiger’ by Pamela Butchart.

We really like this book!

We have done lot’s of tasks for it during Literacy this week.

We did research on Tigers using the book and the i-pads.

We found lots of interesting facts!We made a Zig Zag Book to retell the story in our own words.On Friday we picked our favourite Zoo animal and described them.

Our work looks great!

We have had great fun turning P1/2 into a zoo!

Now we can’t wait for our next book!

We like to Move it!

In Gym we have been doing gymnastics. We have been using our bodies to make up different moves.

Here we are learning the bridge. It can also be called the crab. You lie down, you put your hands above you head, bend your legs and be careful of your head and neck!

We were doing rolly pollies or they can be called forward rolls. You had to tuck your body and not land on your head.
Here we are doing pencil rolls. You have to put your arms in a point above your head and roll over and over and over until you get to the end of the mat!
