This week in Primary 2…

Here are a few suggestions about how you can use your time at home together.

Check out on the School App from the guys at Kids Gone Wild for some Outdoor Learning activities linked to a story. There are reading, writing, maths and art activities all linked to the story Stuck by Oliver Jeffers.

Remember to log in to Education City where you can complete the classwork AND homework activities I’ve set for the week.

And give Sumdog a go! Especially the maths games, but try the spelling and reading games too.

Happy learning.

P5/6 – Outdoor learning in the sun

Today P6/5 throughly enjoyed some time outdoors in the sunshine challenging each other in maths. As you can see, some calculations were very tricky!!!

P6/5 getting creative with their own musical and percussion instruments.

Primary 6/5 were tasked with creating a musical/percussion instrument at home and bringing it in to share with the class. Well done everyone, they look (and sound) fantastic!

This will be a collaborative working session with teachers, parents and pupils to brainstorm, share ideas and shape the planning for our new topic.

If you cannot attend, we would still value your input and will send home a brief form to capture any of your ideas and suggestions.
