Learning Across the Curriculum
Class 1 have been learning about Scotland. This week we have been locating Scotland on the world map. We have also been learning about traditional Scottish clothing. We designed our own Scottish outfits on the SMARTboard and enjoyed trying on kilts.
Miss Cameron taught us how to weave paper to create our own tartan. We selected our favourite colours and were careful to weave the paper under and over. Look at our fantastic work!
We have also been learning about Scottish food and this week we made some delicious shortbread. We read the recipe very carefully and measured out the ingredients. Some of our P2 friends helped us to make the shortbread. We enjoyed tasting the shortbread when it was ready and took some home to share with or family. We are looking forward to more Scottish cooking in class 1.
Numeracy and Mathematics
We have been trying very hard at maths time. We have been investigating with non-standard units of measurement to measure height and can order and sort objects according to their height. Here we are, hard at work…
Sounds good
Hi Class 1,
Your work on Scotland sounds very exciting and I’m glad you have enjoyed learning all about different Scottish foods, tartan and where Scotland is in the world. The shortbread sounds delicious. Did your families enjoy eating it with you? I really like that you have used your handprints to measure height. Well done, everyone.
Miss Henderson
