Little Lights Weather Watch Primary 1 have been on a lovely walk to St Margaret’s Park. They are exploring weather this term and investigating ‘Is the weather important?’ The grass was wet, the air was cold and they could hear the leaves rustling as they walked. The leaves on the ground were all different kinds of shapes and sizes and they were all orange, brown, yellow and red in colour. The ground was also quite slippery because it had been raining. Sophie and Aimee thought he was hilarious. In art all of the pupils drew circus pictures and coloured them using a choice of paint or felt tip pen. They won’t find out the winners till next year. They can’t wait! Toy Story When they got back to class they reported at BBC Weather Watchers. In their classrooms, they also have weather stations so they were able to deliver their own weather forecast. Eyes on the Prize This term Primary 2 are learning about toys – comparing old toys with new toys and wondering which is best and if the toys they play with now could be improved upon. They have been improving their fitness and doing toy themed dances – jack in the box, toy soldier and teddy bear are firm favourites. They also got their parents to complete a questionnaire about toys. Pupils in primary three and the composite P2/3 class have enjoyed taking part in lots of competitions this term. They have been on road safety, art, and a royal mail letter writing competition with a prize of £800 for the winner! The art competition is being run by Tesco Bank and it was launched at Corstorphine last term. An acrobat from the circus visited the classes. He put his hat in a stool and got it stuck on his head. Daniel said ‘I got to hold one of his hats.’ Contributed to by: Jamie Laidlaw, Georgina Nellings, Isla Samuel, Finlay Scott, Zach Buchan, Catriona Lees, Sam Tait, Grace Bryson, Sophie Gates, Aimee Paxton and Daniel Mc Intyre.
