Visit to St Magnus Cathedral

We have been reading stories from the Bible and learning about the different ways Jesus helped people.  On Friday we went to St Magnus Cathedral to look at the beautiful stained glass windows and look to see if they told us a 'story'.  I wonder what we found out?

 

Class 2/3's Assembly

Here are some photos of our class assembly. 

We shared what we have learned about the Commonwealth and the Commonwealth Games. 

It was lovely to see so many people there.

 

Learning to follow maps

We went to the Peedie Sea on Wednesday to practise our orienteering skills.  We had to work with a partner to follow different routes on a map.  As we went around the course we counted up the points on different cones.  It was great fun with lots of laughter and teamwork.

 

Fun in the Outdoors

We have had a busy week in the outdoors. 

On Wednesday we walked up to Muddisdale and did some orienteering activities.  We worked in pairs to read the maps and match the cards.  Everyone tried very hard.

 

 

Then on Friday we went to Picky for Sports Day. 

 It was a good day with lots of happy but tired faces the end of it!

 

 

 

 

Overnight visitor in Class 2/3

Last Friday, we came in to the classroom to find complete chaos.  There was food on the table, bean bags covering the floor and something that looked like a bed in the quiet corner.  On further investigation we found a letter from the Clyde the Commonwealth mascot!

 

He left us some tasks to do which included making up a fact file of one of the Commonwealth countries and planning an assembly for our parents.  Thankfully, we had lots of ideas and worked hard on each of the jobs.

 

We hope the grown up will enjoy seeing our work in a few weeks time.

Commenting on our blog

We have been learning how to put a comment on our blog page.  We all wrote interesting pieces which we then published for everyone to see.

 

Sharing the Message

Last week a few of us went down to the nursery/pre-school to tell them about the Pick Up 3 Pieces campaign.  We talked about what we have been doing and why it is important to collect litter.
