Last week in primary 3a and 3b, we were very excited about having our family into school to share everything we have been learning in our Katie Morag topic.<\/p>\n

Our special guests arrived at 9.15 in the morning and we welcomed them in the small hall and got started right away with sharing our work.<\/p>\n

We performed the Canadian Barn Dance and Gay Gordons in the small hall, and then even asked an adult to dance with us! \u00a0We were very impressed with the effort and enthusiasm from our guests.<\/p>\n

In our P3 classrooms, we performed our Katie Morag puppet shows. \u00a0We have been working very hard with Mrs Thomson to plan and script our puppet show and then made puppets and backdrops for our performance. \u00a0We also showed our guests our 3D model islands. \u00a0As Katie Morag lives on an island, we have been exploring island life and designed and made a model island of our own. \u00a0We had to explain how we did this to our guests.<\/p>\n

We shared stories with our guests in the library. \u00a0Primary 3a have written a whole class Katie Morag story and read this to our guests and Primary 3b have been working on individual Katie Morag short stories and shared these with their guests. \u00a0We also took the time to relax with a Katie Morag book.<\/p>\n

To finish off our busy morning, we went back to the small hall to sing some Scottish songs. \u00a0We sang “Ye cannae shove yer Granny aff a bus”, “The world must be comin’ tae an end” and “three craws”. \u00a0We have also been working on a traditional Gaelic song with Ms Macdonald and performed this too.<\/p>\n

We had a wonderful time showcasing our learning to our invited guests and our teachers think we did a wonderful job of explaining everything we have been doing in our topic work.<\/p>\n
