Here is our curriculum information for this term.

P2 3a – Curriculum Information – Term 2 2025

We watched a video about the shoebox appeal.

Blythswood Shoebox Appeal 2025

We made posters and we are all very excited about getting items donated. We made a video too. We can’t wait to start putting the shoeboxes together.

We looked at shadows as part of our focus on sunlight in our weather topic. We went outside and used toy dinosaurs to make big and small shadows and we drew around them with chalk.

It wasn’t as easy as we thought it was going to be. The sun kept going behind the cloud so we had to be patient.

As part of our weather topic we looked at different types of clouds and then got to go outside and try to name the clouds that we could see that day.

Shape Scavenger Hunt

This was a lot of fun! P2/3a couldn’t believe how many shapes we saw in the wild.

Bingo

We had lots of games of bingo and some pupils even got a chance to be the bingo caller.

Lego Challenge Cards

These were so simple but such a hit with the class.

We did loads of other numeracy related activities and thoroughly enjoyed our week. The pupils were delighted to play the games with parents too and do the Finn Finity scavenger hunt with them. Thank you to those who could make it along.

As part of our weather topic we have been looking at seasons. We made some tree art using tin foil, bingo dabbers and spray bottles of water. It was great fun!
