Primary 2/1 enjoyed a Christmas movie and popcorn today. We voted for the film we wanted to see and the most popular choice was The Grinch.
We had a great morning!
P2/1 – Fairyland
Fairyland
The Frog Prince visited P2/1 to let us know that there were problems in Fairyland and he needed our help. The 3 little pigs had lost their home and needed help finding somewhere to stay.
We made new houses for the 3 little pigs using different materials. We enjoyed it so much, we then made our own characters from the story and performed a puppet show in class.
Fairyland also needed help finding The Gingerbread Man so we talked about interesting adjectives to describe him and then made a “wanted” poster that could help track him down.
After reading the story, the Elves and the Shoemaker, we found out that the Elves needed some help measuring the feet of some Fairyland characters. We measured these in class by counting squares.
The Elves also gave us a special design job. We had to create a pair of shoes for Cinderella to wear at her wedding to Prince Charming. Cinderella was very fussy and wanted certain things on her shoes, so we needed to make sure our design had all the things she wanted.
P2/1 have had a great time helping Fairyland!
Primary 2/1
This week Primary 2/1 learned all about how to stay safe around fireworks and created firework pictures. We first looked at videos and pictures of fireworks and talked about the colours we could see. We then drew lines with wet chalk on black paper to recreate fireworks bursting in the sky.
P2/1 Halloween Celebration
P2/1 had a great time on Friday for our Halloween celebration and put lots of effort into their costumes. The children all looked fantastic and were excited to show their costumes off to the other boys and girls in class.
We painted spooky spider pictures, designed our own pumpkins and had a party in class, with tasty treats and drinks.

P2/1 – Our Local Area
P2/1 has been learning about our village of Pumpherston. Granny has bought a new house in Pumpherston and we helped her find out all she needs to know about the area.
We looked on google maps to find out what was in the village and we learned about the different people who can help us in the area.
Granny had a problem with litter outside her new home so we made posters, telling people to keep the village tidy. We also went on a litter pick around our school.
