We had an interesting session this morning learning some new skills! We had a visit from the Let’s Circus team who ran a workshop where we had a chance to learn skills such at spinning plates, hulahooping and rolling/jumping. Look how we got on!

Da Voar Redd Up
We enjoyed a dry and bright window of weather on Tuesday afternoon – which luckily coincided with our Voar Redd Up slot!
We were teamed up with our talking partners and a pair from Secondary 1A. We had a great time ‘hokking’ around for bruck and managed to fill a few bags although there wasn’t too much to find.
Outdoor Maths
After a few weeks of learning about length, weight and capacity we decided to go on a measure hunt. We looked all around the school playground and garden to find things we could measure the length, weight and capacity of. It was a beautiful day and we even took time to check out the frog spawn on the pond. No frogs to be seen though, they must have been hiding.
Memory Boxes
We had a lot of fun decorating our Memory Boxes today. We each took in a box which we were able to decorate and label with the art materials available. It was a lot of fun and the children were all attentive at their task. We also learned about using apostrophes!
A Memory Box can be used to store your memories so you can come back and look at it whenever you like. You might put in it favourite toys from when you were younger, books, drawings, cards, or maybe something to remember a loved one by who is no longer with us.
Thank you Dylan for originally sharing the idea with us :-).
Topic – Extreme Weather
P2/3 have been learning with their talking partners and researching weather around the world. They took notes on different climates and shared and compared their findings with other pairs. Well done on all your learning on Extreme Weather this term P2/3!
3D Shape
P2/3 have enjoyed looking at 3D shapes over the past 2 days. We can name them and also talk about how many corners, edges and faces the shapes have. We have enjoyed making models using the different 3D shapes and using our cutting skills in a shape sorting activity.
Well done everyone!
P2/3 Class Assembly
We would like to say a huge thank you to parents and families who were able to come to our assembly today. We know that it is not always possible for everyone to come. Thank you for all the support from parents in learning lines and song words too.
We began our assembly with ‘Welcome Everybody’ from http://www.fischy.com/ an upbeat welcoming song which all the pupils and staff joined in with – and maybe some parents too – it is hard not to!
We then shared what we have been learning about Islam, as part of our RME curriculum – click on our parents web to find out more about our RME this term or feel free to ask Mrs A or Mrs B.
Next we shared a movie of us participating in our Fresh 15 minutes of exercise everyday. This movie was a lot of fun to make….and watch! Our Fresh 15 minutes of activity each days helps us to have healthier bodies and minds which helps us learn better at school. It’s win-win all round!
We finished off our assembly with another Fischy Music song – ‘I feel good’. It’s a cracker as well, acknowledging the different emotions we go through.
We really enjoyed our assembly and hope you did too. The pupils all showed how their confidence is growing in speaking on stage (with microphones!) to a whole hall full of people! Amazing. 🙂
Well done P2/3
