Its been another busy and exciting week in Primary 2, here are some of the things we did.

“We did some calculation in  maths, in the story of 10”, Alison told us.

“We did our maths test, it was a little tricky”, Cerys remembered.

“We learned about the Penny Farthing, it’s a really tall bike from the past”, Aaron shared with the class.

“We have been using our travel tracker everyday”, Cameron remembered.

“We went on a trip to the Transport Museum, my favorite part was looking inside the big train”, Olivia was happy to tell us.

“We did some sketches of different transport on our trip, it was good and fun”, Logan M remembered.

Primary 2 have been learning all about transport through the ages this term, we we decided to go on a trip to the Riverside Transport Museum.

There was so much to see, we even spotted one of the first bicycles, the Penny farthing.

We saw lots of old and new bikes, even one used in the Olympics. There were Motorbikes too, some had a sidecar and there was one we could try sitting in. We even spotted Mr Campbell’s favorite car.

There were lots of different types of Transport, we saw a bus that was pulled by horses and got to stand on an old fashioned Bus. “tickets please!”

We even got to try sitting inside, it was quite different to the bus we took to get to the museum.

We sure had a lot of fun.

Next we got to travel on the famous Glasgow underground (well a pretend version).

We got to visit an Old fashioned toy shop filled with Model trains, We crawled through a tunnel to get a closer look at them.

After a lovely picnic lunch outside in the sunshine we went to do a workshop called ‘Powerful Stuff’ all about the ways we can make types of transport move. We all wore Lab coats like proper inventors and engineers! We went around the Museum to learn about the different ways to power types of transport, like steam, electricity and wind. See if you can spot Mr Campbell in a very strange looking bicycle!

We had a lot of fun and learned a lot, here are some of the things we said in class the next day.

“We saw the old cars” – Aiden

“We saw a broken car, it had crashed it was mini”, Oliver told us. ” We also saw a three-wheeler car too”, he added.

“We saw a big big bus” –  Kayla

“We saw the very very very first car, it has two big wheels at the back and one wheel at the front”. –  Alifie

“We saw a blue car it was a bit different it had an engine in the back and the boot in the front” . Ashley

“We saw the first ever bike, I didn’t want to try and ride it. It was too high”. Connor

“We saw some old fashioned toys”. Noah

“We saw some old fashioned bikes and a motor bike with a side car. There was a pretend one we could sit in”. Millie

 

It’s been another busy week here in Primary 2.

” We did our spelling test, it was a little bit tricky”, Ashley shared with the class.

“We made Pita bread pizzas, we cut red yellow and orange peppers and we grated cheese”, Alison was happy to tell us. Sophia spotted our ‘ow’ phoneme in the word yellow and pointed it out to the class.

“This week we learned about old  and new cars and the very first car, it had three wheels and no roof,”  Keilidh remembered.

Olivia told us about this weeks outdoor P.E. “We did bike-ability with Mrs Scott. We rode our bikes and scooters around obstacles”.

“We finished our Viking long boat drawings so they can go on our transport wall” Logan H was excitied to tell the class.

“We tried some more tounge twisters, they are fun“, Millie told us with a smile.

“We made our own sentences with some ‘ow’ sound words” Cerys remembered and told the class.

 

This week half of primary 2 got to make Pita bread pizzas with Mr Campbell (don’t worry the other half will get to make them next week). We used our spreading skills to make sure the pizza sauce coved the pita bread base. Then we cut up yellow, red and orange peppers. We even sliced some mushrooms too.

Then we learned how to grate cheese to add on top. We had to be very careful as using a grater can be a little dangerous.

We sprinkled the cheese on top of the sauce and added some of the toppings we had cut. We took our pizzas home and they made a tasty and healthy snack or meal.

Here are some pictures of our delicious pizzas!
