Story Spinners with P2/3

This week P2/3 have used ‘Story Spinners’ to help them create interesting stories. Primary 2 had to get a character and setting to write about, while Primary 3 also had to think about characteristics, props and keywords! We spend some time coming up with ideas for stories based on the information everyone had been given. After this thinking time, we used story planners to start to think about what we want to happen at the start, middle and end. I can’t wait to read the finished stories next week!

Primary 1&2 made a calendar

We are thinking about time this term and decided to make a calendar.

Primary 2 made the grid part of the calendar and had to think about the year, month names, days of the week and the number of days in each month.  They worked really hard together to complete all 12 months for our calendar.

Primary 1 thought about months, seasons, weather and special events then designed a picture for each month.

We now have a calendar in the P1/2 and P2/3 classroom to look at and use.
