Hamish Has Arrived!
Last week Hamish McHaggis arrived in Primary 2/1, Primary 2 and Primary 3/2. He brought along some lovely story books about his adventures around Scotland. Hamish wanted to know where we had been in Scotland and would like us to learn more about Scotland. We have been painting Hamish and his friends and this week we are learning about Edinburgh.
Introducing Primary 5a!? These are our facetionary self-portraits, which we created when we visited the Wonderful Williamston Woods. Do you recognise us?
Democracy and Dictatorship
As part of our Citizen 7 topic we have been developing our research and presenting skills! We worked together in groups to find out information about either Dictatorship or Democracy. We had to use what we found out to create a presentation. We presented these to other groups and brought together what we learned on a poster by listing 5 facts we learned from the presentations. We also evaluated how we thought our groups worked together. We are looking forward to learning more about the Scottish Parliament. We will keep you posted!
