This afternoon P1 and P1/2 had a visit from Mr Troup (Abigail’s dad) to tell us all about life down under. We loved everything he said.
Word processing
This afternoon we have been learning to change the size of the text and the type of text using Word. We worked in pairs. We enjoyed seeing the different types of font.
A super week
This week we have been learning about halves and quarters. We have started a new topic about Australia. We all found Australia using the Map App on the iPads. This afternoon we went outside and enjoyed our apples on our new picnic tables.
1960’s Dancing
What a week in P1/2!
We have been practising our lines and song words all week for our Assembly. Miss Smith and Miss Wallace were very proud of our performance today.
We have been listening and dancing to 1960’s music. The twist and the mash potato song have been such fun! Records make music but now we have ipods. There were radios in the 60’s but we have them today.
A Special Spring Day
P1/2 have enjoyed a day all about Spring. P1 and P1/2 went outside to the playground for a Spring walk. We then used a black pen to draw a Spring picture and managed to write some sentences about it. Next we looked at symmetry in Spring and used paint to make our own cherry blossom trees. We had a lovely day!
Eco Warriors in P1/2
On Friday we had a super Eco Day at our school. We worked with P6 and went outside to find clues to solve the mystery word. Then we went into the hall for Eco activities. Calum liked playing the Eco games on the laptops. Dionne enjoyed planting seeds. We all had a great day and found out lots of new things about reusing materials.
A rocking week in P1/2
This week we have loved working with Royal Rockstars. We have been learning new rock songs and finding out about rock music. Nieve liked shaking her hair when she heard the guitars. Riley’s favourite song is Let’s All Be Friends. Calum H enjoyed the rock version of One Direction. We have all had so much fun! In the classroom we have been working hard on subtraction. We are looking forward to our rock concerts next week and starting a new topic.
Our visit to the Post Office
Last week we went to the Post Office. We walked there and back. We put our letters into the post box and went inside the Post Office. The lady who works there told us how the post works. We looked into the postman’s bags.
Our Visit to Chryston Church
Today we went to visit Mr Malcolm at the church. It was to see and listen to Mr Malcolm, to show us how a baby is christened. We went with Mrs White, Mrs Rae and Mrs Allan and Primary 1. The church is really close to our school, and we had a fun and safe to it. At the church it was really fun because Mr Malcolm rang the church bells for us. Neve in Primary 1 even got to pull the rope the ring the bell. Then we went inside the church and sat down on the pews at the front of the church. Once we were sitting nicely we watched a cartoon about a christening. After that Katie, Lewis (P1) and Laya acted out what happens at a baptism. It was a really fun afternoon!
