Primary 1/2 found lots of different Autumn leaves in the woods to make a leaf bracelet with.

They learned how to hold it properly, what to feed it and what kind of home to give it.

Primary 1/2 have been learning about flat shape in maths this week.

Primary 1 worked with a partner to read numbers and to gather the correct amount of natural materials to go with each number.

They then used the materials to make pictures.

This week Primary one were learning to write number five.

Primary one/two with the help of Callum in primary seven, harvested our potatoes. We worked really hard and got lots of potatoes.

We also picked some tomatoes and corn in the cob. Primary two helped to prepare the tomatoes and cook the corn. Then some of us  had a taste. They were delicious.

Yesterday we made the most of the beautiful weather and went outside to the garden. We were using our different senses.

One group used their sense of touch to find things that felt hard and soft, and rough and smooth.

One group used their sense of sight to find lots of shades of green.

Finally the other group used their sense of smell to smell all the different herbs.

We have two plain cardigans in the class with no names. One is aged  4 to 6 years with a Smart Start label and the other is aged 5 to 6 with a PEP & CO label.

We also have a plastic lunch tub with a green lid but again no label.

All parents and carers are invited to a meeting with Chris Mackie at 3:10pm on Monday 2nd of September regards his outdoor learning, research project. The meeting will be in the p1/2 classroom.

All welcome including children.
