Primary Six Remembrance Day

Primary six marked Remembrance Day with a very dignified two minutes silence.  They  carried out a variety of tasks to enhance their knowledge of the effects war can have on the home life of children.  Pupils researched what life was like for evacuees and the evacuation process, what happened during air raids and made keynote presentations and dioramas of all their findings.

Remembrance Day

'Lest We Forget'
‘Lest We Forget’

We wrote a variety of different kinds of poems and prose to mark the occasion of Remembrance Day. Acrostic poems were very popular and this is one of the displays of them  in Room 12.

The poems were very moving and respectful and the children should be commended for their efforts.

Before we produced our own pieces of writing we did a lot of research on our i-pads. We came across some wonderful poems written by other children, all over the world, on the subject of Remembrance or Armistice Day.

We loved the poem ‘In Flanders Field’ by John McCrae and have kept a copy of it on the wall in Room 12.

P2 and Remembrance Day 2015

Over the past few days, the boys and girls have been learning a bit about Remembrance Day.

“I know the fighting happened in Flanders Field” – David Young

“I learned that we wear a poppy because they grew in the place where a war was” – Stephanie Gibb

“There were bombs and it was Germany we were fighting in the first war” – Andrew Armour

They created a fantastic display to showcase all their hard work.

Primary 2 also created fantastic acrostic poems using the word “REMEMBER” as a stimulus.

The children made personal message poppies to thank the soldiers and servicemen who gave up their lives for their country.
