P2a

Today was sports day. We had great fun and are glad it was nice weather. We really enjoyed encouraging P1a and P1b, they all did so well. We were able to demonstrate some of the athletic skills we have been learning in P.E to all the adults that came to watch us. Thank you for coming to cheer us on. Miss Langridge is proud of everyone for taking part. The children also wanted to say a big thank you to Mrs Fleck for organising it for us, she did a great job!

We have also been naming different parts of our bodies and have been discussing what their job is and why it is important to look after them. We started with singing and acting out head, shoulders, knees and toes then we challenged ourselves to sing it in German kopf, schulter, knie und zeh.

Yesterday we were being active and we Beat the street. It didn’t take us very long so we even had time for a little play in the play park on our way home.

We also thought about our daily morning and nighttime routines we have to help us look after our body. We worked in two teams to sort these out as fast as we could and we all won some Dojo points for super team work. We discussed what could possibly happen to our bodies if we didn’t have these routines. We will be designing a warning sign to warn people about the problems that could happen if they don’t follow routines to take care of their health and wellbeing.

Today was the first day of health week and Primary 2 were asked to bring in their bikes or scooters. The weather was not great but that did not stop us having fun!

Some of us crashed into each other but we were all very brave and got straight back on our bikes. It showed us that it is important that we always make sure we have our helmets on to protect us just in case we bump our heads, thankfully this didn’t happen today.

The children that did not have a helmet or bike didn’t miss out, they had lots of fun playing various indoor games. Here are some pictures of us having fun on our bikes with P1a and P1b.

We will share more of our Health week activities throughout the week, watch this space!

Remember it’s beat the street tomorrow, so bring your fobs and sensible shoes and jackets!

We have been learning about food that grows on farms and the process from farm to fork. Today we have been busy making our very own bread and butter. It was very hard work…look at some of the funny faces we pulled when we were shaking the butter in the jar, it made us giggle lots.

 

 

Today we got to go an find our art at the art exhibition. We enjoyed looking at all the other artists work too.

We also got some wunderbar news that someone in our class won a special award for most enthusiastic language learner at the North Lanarkshire 1 + 2 language awards. We are all very proud of you!

 

Yesterday was Outdoor Learning day. We did some lessons outside and had some outdoor fun.

Today we went outside for Literacy. – Mason

We brought in some sticks and leaves for our caterpillars. – Alaina

We went out for P.E and we did some races with P4 I enjoyed the running race. – Amelie

The Moons got their new reading book and they got to do it in the sun – Iona

I enjoyed lying down on the grass reading my book with my partner in the sun. It felt like I was on holiday. – Lilly D

At gym we enjoyed doing lots of different races and I enjoyed going out with p4 because they were encouraging us. – Aaron

 

We have been busy looking after our caterpillars. They arrived a week and a half ago and we helped to put them into their little tubs. We have been watching them carefully, first they grew from caterpillars, then into chrysalis and we got a lovely surprise today, 3 of them have turned into butterflies. We also decorated some butterflies that Lucy and her mum made for us and have been creating some wonderful flower art from what a butterfly or insect might see.

Aaron – The caterpillar was moving because if an animal in the wild tried to eat it then it would wiggle.

Sonny – We did some work because the caterpillars were in a big tub and we had to get a paintbrush to move them into our own tubs.

Katie – When Miss Langridge opened the tub of caterpillars some of them tried to get out.

Brooklyn – My Caterpillar fell onto the table.

Lewis – Most of the caterpillars are turning into chrysalis, ready to make a change into butterflies.

We hope our adults can come to visit them on Tuesday during the Art Exhibition. We are excited to show you them. Look at the pictures of us looking after our caterpillars.

 

This week we have been really busy learning lots of new facts in maths. We have even started our new P2 Big Maths Beat that Challenges, Miss Langridge will maybe even give us some Dojo points if we beat our score each week!

We also got to use the laptops this week but we were so busy we forgot to take pictures. We will take some next week. We learned lots of new skills on the laptop, switching them on/off, finding a new program called Word, typing and changing the writing size and colour.
