Primary 2

 

We have been settling in well to Primary 2 and have enjoyed getting to know our new routines. We particularly enjoyed reading the story ‘Have You Filled a Bucket Today?’ where we learned that by showing kindness and love, we fill the invisible buckets that other people carry. We are now trying to earn pom poms for our own buckets by working hard, helping and behaving well. Mrs Simpson is very proud of everyone as we are trying so hard!

We have been revising a variety of previously taught phonemes and common words within Literacy, and have been carrying out a range of tasks and activities to consolidate our previous learning. We especially loved playing the game ‘Pot Luck’ with a partner, and using playdough to make ‘ch’ words.

In Maths we have been focusing on addition up to 20. We are learning a range of strategies to help us to do this. We also enjoy our number talks and using our Show Me boards to help us learn.

We have been learning Spanish and especially enjoyed the games we played to help us learn Spanish colours. Mrs Simpson is very proud as we are already doing our register and following commands in Spanish. Muy bien Primary 2!!

P1/2 Final June Reflection before the Holidays. Mrs Stevenson/Mrs Byrne

SCIENCE/MATHS/LITERACY

P1/2 have been working so hard as they approach the end of the School Year and Summer Holidays, it has all just flown in.

The children have really enjoyed Science and investigating Living and Non-Living Things.  As they leave to go home for the holidays, they take with them some of the variety of Sunflowers  they have brought on from seed in a propagator.   The children have  now re-potted  their seed pods into pots with more soil,  to take home to water and watch them grow.

Some will grow bigger than others and can be planted in the garden when they out grow there pots.

We’d love to see how they get on during the holidays if you have time to take pictures.

                 
                

The children also wrote out clear instructions on How to Grow your own Sunflower from Seed’  re-pot it and finally transfer it from the pot to the Garden.

SPONSORED TEDDY BEARs PICNIC/WALK FOR ST ANDREWS HOSPICE

P1/2 enjoyed their Sponsored Teddy Bear Walk and Picnic, as they  helped to  raise funds for St Andrews Hospice.  The children enjoyed it even more as they were able to take along their own very special teddies, which  they brought in  to show the class and share a special story about them.

   
   
 

OUR SCHOOL TRIP TO ABERDOUR – Being Outdoors/ Spending Time with Friends and Having Fun

….With the whole school, P1/2 had a really terrific time just being together and having fun on the Silver Sands  beach, at Aberdour.

               
      
             

This was a fantastic end to the last week of term as the school holidays were about to begin.

Well done P1/2 for all your hard work over the school year. You have made Mrs Stevenson and I very proud of you.  Have a well deserved rest and we will look forward to seeing you as you move on to P2 and P3 when you come back after the holidays.  God Bless and have a lovely time.

Summer Term in P4/5

We have been learning about India this term. These beautiful Rangoli patterns have been inspired by the Hindu tradition for festivals.

We have also done some beautiful artwork as part of our work on Pentecost and Corpus Christi.

Whilst some of our class were preparing for the school show, the rest were doing STEM activities. They worked on Beebots and Spheros, aswell as building bridges and towers. These children did a great job presenting their work to the rest of the class.
