Science , Art and Literacy in primary 1! We have been reading lots of Fairy Tales and recently enjoyed “Jack and the Beanstalk”. If you have anything to do with P1, you will know by now that we have a friendly Dragon from Fairy land that comes and visits us regularly, this Dragon also leaves us “D-mail” most mornings! So….last week in our post box, was the story of Jack and the magic beans. The dragon also left us some magic beans to plant and some sunflowers! We are hoping to grow a beanstalk to the clouds.

We have been looking after the seeds so well that most of them have sprouted now. Some are pretty tall!

As well as learning how plants grow, we wanted to paint some sunflowers using the warm and bright colours of the sun. This was great fun and we spent some time researching what the sunflowers might look like when they are fully grown.

Watch this space and we will post a picture of the completed sunflowers soon!

What do you think of our wonderful writing? We are just about ready for Primary 2 and our teacher is super proud of the work we have been doing to improve our writing skills. Wow!!
