Primary 1 have been learning about Autumn this week. We talked about the different colours of the trees during this time, then painted our own trees, using foil to create the leaves. We learned about how hedgehogs go for a big long sleep in Autumn (hibernation) and we made our own hedgehogs using real Autumn leaves to create the spikes.

In Maths, we have been investigating measure and tried measuring different objects around the school using our hands, feet, cubes and lollypop sticks. We learned that these are non-standard units of measurement, while rulers and metre sticks are standard units of measurement.

The last 2 weeks we have had visits from Zoe Gordon in school who shared her knowledge of French with us. We have been learning greetings, colours, numbers and animals.
We have been researching how to keep our teeth healthy and shared our knowledge with the dentist when we had our dental checks in school. We also designed posters to encourage others to look after their teeth.
We are busy learning sounds from our new phonics block and have been consolidating our learning making words from playdoh, using ict games, board games and building words with our sounds on the magnetic boards.

To mark the end of their Circus topic, P2/1 performed their own Circus to the Primary 1 class on the last day of term. The boys and girls worked hard practising their routines and deciding on the music they wanted to perform to. Well done P2/1, your Circus was amazing!

Primary 2/1 are now coming to the end of their Circus topic and this week have been busy practising for their own Circus performance. We set up our ticket office in the playground and sold tickets to the P1’s who will be the audience for our Circus next week.
In Numeracy, we have been learning about money, and our knowledge of adding coins of different amounts came in useful when selling our tickets.

Primary 2/1 have been learning about electricity this term. They explored whether objects are battery, mains powered or solar powered. They have thought about how much they depend on electricity in their daily lives and made a pictogram to show their electricity use each morning. We found out that lots of people use an electric toothbrush!
