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!

P3 Parents Open Event Part 2 (Cafe Espanol)

The second part of our parents event took place in the Learning Kitchen where the pupils from P3 and Spanish Club pupils from P4 and 5 were serving tapas (Spanish snacks) to all our visitors.

Spanish cafe food

The cafe was very popular and successful with pupils serving the food in Spanish and helping their parents/guardians with the pronunciation of the phrases left on each table.  The tapas were eaten up very quickly so we haven’t got many pictures of the snacks on offer but we do promise they were delicious – muy delicioso.

Thanks to all my helpers especially Johnathon who took the photos for me as I was busy in the kitchen.  Muchas gracias for such a wonderful turnout!

P4 Super School Kid Rap!

P4 have been learning poems, our favourite is the school kid rap! This poem has repetition,  rhyme, rhythm and onomatopoeia.

These are the lyrics:

THE SCHOOL KID RAP

Miss was at the black board writing with the chalk.                                         When suddenly she stopped in the middle of her talk.        She snapped her fingers snap! snap! snap!                                                     Pay attention children and I’ll teach you how to rap.                                       She picked up a pencil,  she started to tap

All together children, now clap! clap! clap!                                                       Just get the rhythm, just get the beat                                                                Drum it with your fingers, stamp it with your feet                                             That’s right children, keep in time.                                                                         Now we got the rhythm, all we need is the rhyme

This school is cool, Miss Grace is ace.                                                                   Strut your stuff with a smile on your face                                                        Snap those fingers, tap those toes,                                                                        Do it like they do it in the video shows                                                             Flap it,  snap it, clap, snap, clap,                                                                                Let’s all do the school  kid rap!!!!!!!!!!
