Primary 1 has become very Scottish as our purposeful play areas have changed. We now have the Thistle Cafe which is open daily serving lots of different types of Scottish foods. The children love role-playing as not only the waiter and chef but also as the customers – it is great fun listening to their conversations! The children have each written a menu and have drawn or painted a thistle.
Our Post Office has now changed to a Tourist Information Office. The children have discussed different places you might wish to visit and have made little information leaflets. We have practised our “telephone voice” for answering the phone “Good Morning, Glenboig Tourist Information, How may I help you?”
Watch out Mrs Thomson – my class might be applying for your job!
Our information leaflets – why not think about visiting one of Scotland’s lochs, or castles we also have some great museums and parks and don’t forget about Edinburgh Zoo or Blair Drummond Safari Park.
Here are some of our menus – there are lots of lovely things on offer from salmon and haggis to shortbread and clootie dumpling!
