The End of an Exciting Term

It is now the end of term 1 and Primary 2a have had so much fun. We have been enjoying working in our co-op teams in maths, language and our topics. We did a lot of co-op learning in our topic - Caring and Sharing. We learned about our rights as children, how we help elderly people and those with additional needs. Aswell as that, we looked at people who help us, their jobs, uniforms and the equipment they use. We really enjoyed this topic and learned a lot.

We are now looking at the Sun, Moon and Stars in our science topic, amazing Miss Breslin with how much we already know and how keen we are (some went home and did some research at home - WOW!) We learned about shadows and how to make shadow puppets, aswell as looking at a planetarium to see some of our stars.

We are working hard in maths and language, working on numbers up to 100. In language we are doing a lot of writing and are progressing well in our reading.

Thursday 13 October was the exciting culmination of football training from Ross, who works for St Mirren. Every Tuesday, Ross came in and taught us the skills used and needed by professional football players. We have had so much fun doing this. This resulted in us going to St Mirren football stadium and getting a tour of the trophy room and dressing room. we saw all the trophies St Mirren have won! We then had the opportunity to play on the football pitch. We had so much fun, and impressed the football coaches with our skills.

We have really earned our end of term reward and will enjoy our DVD afternoon.
