Outdoor Learning in Primary 2
In Primary 2M and 2W we have been learning how to subtract. We have been using lots of different methods to help us do this. Yesterday we decided to take our subtraction outdoors and see how we could use the environment to help us show our learning. We had lots of fun using our number skills.
It was a chilly morning so we had to make sure we were wrapped up. We even managed to use natural materials and the weather to help us create our own subtraction sums!

P5B Respect Remembrance Day
Today is Remembrance Day and in P5B we showed our respects by taking part in a few activities. The whole school took part in the 2 minute silence, to pay our thoughts and respects to those brave soldiers who fought in the war and to their families who lost loved ones.
Our reading comprehension focused on Remembrance Day and asked us lots of questions about why this day is so important, why do we wear poppies etc.
Some of us enjoyed sharing stories about relatives who fought in the war.
In the afternoon, we made poppy charcoal drawings which look very effective. The children will be able to take these home tomorrow.

Phonics in P2M
We have had a very busy week in Primary 2M. We have learned more about pirates, designing our own pirate flag for Captain Abigail and finding a real pirate flag in our class. In Phonics, we were excited to use our new overlays and we used our Say, Make, Write boards to help us read, make and write our words.

Arghhhhhhhhh!
This term in P2W we are learning all about pirates. Today we were learning about famous pirates and what they did a long, long time ago. Captain Abigail set us a challenge to find out about how to become amazing pirates and we think we have got off to a great start.
We spent time this afternoon creating our own pirate names using our favourite colour and favourite animal. We created some brilliant names that made us giggle!
Next we created our own pirate puppets which we used during our Positive Play time. We had so much fun!
