Today primary 1 used weaving techniques to design their own tartan. We found out it was pretty tricky but we all worked hard to master the technique. We are going to set up a weaving loom in class to make a new scarf for Hamish McHaggis.
Primary 2 completed their toys this afternoon. They worked so well together and the finished results were fabulous! The children thoroughly enjoyed being Toymakers!
As part of our Toys topic, Primary 2 have been very busy designing and making their own toys. They worked collaboratively, in groups of 3, to carefully design their toys before making them, using household junk.
What a fun (and messy) day!!
Primary 1 have been so excited with the snow!!! Unfortunately not enough snow had fallen for us to build a snowman……..so we wrote a story about one. We had lots of fabulous ideas for what our snowmen got up to. We had snowmen parties, make-up parties, flying snowmen, pirate snowmen, unicorn snowmen, lost in the forest snowmen, mountain climbing snowmen, going to the movies with snowmen…….our imaginations were really working today!!!
Primary 5 have started their journey into space through their topic. We have discussed what we already know and what we would like to know. We added this to our floorbook and we can’t wait to add lots more information and facts to it as we go along.
What we know:
What we want to know:
We can’t wait to share what we learn about space with you.
Primary 1 is collecting evidence about the Loch Ness Monster as part of their Scottish topic. We will be studying the Hamish McHaggis books by Linda Stachan and Sally J Collins. We will use the books to learn about some Scottish wildlife and landmarks as well as some traditional Scots sayings. The children found the saying ‘Haud yer wheest’ particularly amusing.
If you have any stories about Loch Ness or any Nessie sightings, please share them with your child and they can share them with their friends in class.
Primary 5 would just like to wish everyone a happy New year and we hope that you all enjoyed your break over the festive period.
Primary 5 have been sharing their stories about Christmas with each other and even managed to write a recount of Christmas day.
They have also been looking forward to another fun- filled and jam packed term and have been busy creating targets for their curricular areas that they would like to work on and have already managed to get a new display up in class.
We are looking forward to sharing all of our activities and news with you over the coming term.
Today the Kings, or the wise men who came from the East arrive with their gifts for the new born King! Primary 1/2 found out about how they followed a star which led them to where they could find Jesus.
