Our Primary 2 scientists created monster cups and carried out a fizzing, bubbling experiment! Lots of excitement and curious faces! 👩‍🔬 #STEM #LearningThroughPlay

Primary 2 had so much fun creating their own snakes today! 🐍 They used printing to add realistic scales, and even compared the different sizes of snakes they made during play! #Play #Art #IDL

Magic Potion Fun! 🧪✨
We had lots of fun exploring capacity while making our own magic potions! We learned to use words such as full, half full, and empty as we measured and poured colourful liquids. At the writing table, some of our pupils even wrote their own potion recipes. #Halloween

We are learning to recognise animals by their patterns! Using oil pastels, we created our own colourful animal patterns. 🐆🦌 #IDL #Art

🦁🦒 We have been sorting savannah animals, matching them to their names, and creating amazing animal art! Ask us what we know… #IDL

We have been very busy practising our spelling words and ‘oa’ phoneme this week. Well done P2! ⭐️

We have been using tens and ones to make two-digit numbers. Lots of keen learners showing great understanding of place value! #Numeracy #PlaceValue

We have been practising our spelling words with Ghost Spelling! 👻 First, we write them lightly in pencil like a ghost, then trace over them in bright colours to make them appear. #Spelling

As part of our topic on animals and their habitats, we have been learning about different types of animals and where they live. We focused on snakes and looked closely at their scaly skin. To create our own snake artwork, we used printing techniques to add texture and patterns to the snake’s body. 🐍

Wishing you and your families a wonderful holiday! 🌟 I've loved spending this term with you, watching you learn and grow each day has been a joy. Looking forward to seeing you all in two weeks! 💙

We love our visits to the library.📚 There's nothing better than getting lost in a book, whether on our own or sharing a story with a friend. #Library #Reading

This week, we explored a range of fun, hands-on activities to help consolidate our understanding of doubles. ➕ #Numeracy #Active

C used this learning in his play to create a giant fox, amazing creativity in action! 🦊

We have been learning all about different habitats. 🌳🌊 We even made our own origami foxes to bring our learning to life! 🦊 #IDL

Enjoying our autumn walk 🍂 From spotting animal habitats to making nature whistles and collecting conkers. 🍁🌳 #Outdoors #IDL

Our topic ‘Animals’ has sparked lots of interest and curiosity in the classroom. This week, we focused on woodland animals. Each child chose an animal and wrote their own descriptive piece, thinking carefully about appearance, movement, and habitat. I am so proud of their writing- keep it up! ⭐️✏️🦔🕷️

H used this learning to create her own pattern during discovering time! 🌹

We went outdoors to create patterns using natural materials we found around the school grounds. It was fun to work together and spot patterns in nature! We learned how to repeat shapes and colours and noticed how patterns can be found all around us. #Outdoors #Numeracy @mathsweek.scot

Some of the activities we completed today to practise our counting within 20. 🔢➕ #Numeracy #Addition

We went outside to collect leaves and used them to make hedgehogs. The leaves were perfect for the hedgehog’s prickly spines! 🦔🍁🍂 #Art #OutdoorLearning #IDL

We explored facial expressions and the different parts of the face, then got creative using natural materials to make our own unique faces! 🎨🍃 #CreativeLearning #NatureArt

Reflective reading📖✏️- we listened and read the clues carefully to draw an accurate illustration of the character. #ReflectiveReading #Literacy

We have been busy with lots of fun activities- practising our taught phonemes, funky finger tasks, mark making, and comparing numbers. So proud of their enthusiasm everyday! ⭐️ #Play

We read Elmer and celebrated what makes us unique! 🐘💫 We wrote descriptions of ourselves and drew fantastic illustrations to match. #Writing
