Its been another busy week in Primary 2/3.
We found out that our new topic was ‘Planet Earth, Moon and Sun’ and we all had lots of great ideas about what we’d like to learn in our topic.
- Rachel – ‘What is the earth made of?’
- Alishba – ‘What’s inside the earth?’
- Harry – ‘Why do we get day and night?’
- Hasan – ‘What do animals do at day and night?’
- Chloe, Carly and Annayah – ‘What is the moon made of?’
- Matthew ‘What is the earth’s surface made of?’
- James ‘What is the sun made of?’
- Aaron ‘Is there ice inside the earth?’
Some other highlights from our week are:
Calvin We wrote a story about St Ninian’s cave. We read our stories carefully to make sure that they made sense.
Alishba In maths we’ve been focusing on a number of the day as a maths starter. Our skills are getting better every day.
Jakub We used felt tip pens to make the sun and the moon then we displayed them on our classroom windows.
Matthew We learnt about nocturnal animals. They have big eyes to help them see in the dark.
Kasia We learnt about day and night by making earth by holding hands in a circle and Mrs Keegan held the torch to show us the sun.
We also used the globe and a torch to help us learn about day and night.
Rachel We saw a video which shows us how the earth moves around to make day and night.
Hasan We learned about St Ninian and where his cave is in Whithorn. We decorated pebbles from St Ninian’s beach.
Have a lovely long weekend.
Mrs Howley and Mrs Keegan
