Have a look at P2’s wonderful wall display. They created mermaid collages and ‘WANTED’ posters for the mermaid called Freya in their class story, “Can You Catch a Mermaid?”

P2 Millennium Bug Report
This clever girl has written a fantastic report explaining what the Millennium Bug was. She included some fabulous sub-headings. Well done Chloe!
P2 LEARN ABOUT TENS AND UNITS
During maths time, some of the children worked in their group to solve maths counting problems using a fun game on the SmartBoard. They learned to count the tens and add the units.

P2 INVESTIGATE OLD AND NEW TECHNOLOGY
As part of their Decades topic, the boys and girls had a discussion about the technology we use and looked at some photographs of older technology from the year 2000 onwards. They were able to compare the similarities and differences of these devices and sorted them into old and new.
The children thought it was funny when they found out that when rewinding a video tape, people had to wait a while for it to get back to the beginning!
P2 Active Spelling Fun!
P2 have been learning their new spelling words this week through active learning. These spelling activities could be used to practise words at home too!
P2’s Millennium Bugs
Have a look at how some of our fantastic Millennium Bug creations turned out!
This week, our writing lesson will be an imaginative story about the mysterious Millennium Bug.
P2 and The Millennium Bug
Primary 2 have began their topic of learning about the years 2000-2015.
Today in class, they discovered about The Millennium Bug!
This was when people thought that all the computers in the world would stop working or CRASH when the year changed to 2000 and they nicknamed it, “The Millennium Bug.”
We in Primary 2 know that it wasn’t a real bug like a spider or a beetle, but we imagined what we thought a Millennium Bug would look like and planned a drawing of it on our whiteboards!
Some of our creations had lots of arms to crash all the computers in the year 2000!
P4 Eco-Day Activity
Today we sorted and counted the litter that P2/3 had collected from playtime. We then created a graph and it showed us the types of litter that had been dropped and we could see how healthy or unhealthy we are being!
We noticed that crisps and sugary snacks were a popular snack choice and fruit was the least popular, when we think it should be the opposite.
However, we did think that our drinks are quite healthy as we drink a lot of milk and water.
We were shocked at how much litter was on the ground and we encourage other children to use the playground bins. Thank you!
P4 Fantastic Fractions!
We have been learning how to identify and name a variety of fractions during Maths time. We use Fraction Loop Cards, Fraction Bingo, Fraction Dominoes and Fraction Matching Cards to help us improve.
P4 and P5 Primary Games
We had a wonderful time at the Primary Games today. Our Glenmanor banner came 3rd in the competition! Well done to all the children who took part and thank you to Mrs Allan and Mrs Cameron for coming along to help out.
