This week in P2 we have been busy creating for our East Calder project all about East Calder Main Street. We have been creating some of the businesses and houses you might see on the street. We have created leaflets all about what you might see on East Calder Main Street. We were lucky to have Dog’s Trust in to speak with us about how to take care of dogs and keep them happy as well this week. It was great!

This Week in P2
It has been a busy week back from the Easter holidays in P2. We have been working on capacity in maths and measuring different sizes of containers to see what they would hold. We played maths games in numeracy to continue working on our addition and subtraction skills and we have enjoyed working on our handwriting on the desks.
This week in P2
We have been working hard on tally charts and data handling in maths and we have begun to look at creating our own bar charts. We have enjoyed looking at procedure texts in writing and creating our own. We have been working hard practising for our Easter assembly this week as well. It was also our last session with our music project leader, Dave, we were very sad to see him go but we loved having him at ECPS for our music sessions this term.
This week in P2
This week in P2 we took part in science week and did the curly wurly challenge. We had to work in teams to try and stretch the curly wurly as much as possible and then measure it to gather our results. We have been looking at tally marks and graphs in numeracy this week and created our own data. It has been great to see that during the pupils play they have been working on numeracy and maths skills as well. Lots of exciting things happening in P2 before the Easter holidays.

World Book Day in P3
This week in P2
We continue to look at money and measuring in maths. We have started to look more at fractions and learn about halves and quarters. In writing we began looking at procedure texts last week so we created our own cat sock puppets following the steps of the procedure. We love practising our handwriting on the tables to help us with the formation of our letters. As it has been World Book Day this week we took part in a draw along with the author Emily Mackenzie who write ‘There’s broccoli in my ice cream!’. We have also enjoyed our big, cosy read today in our pyjamas.
