P2 have had a very busy week, with lots of exciting activities and even some surprises! We finished up our Lion King topic last week, however we have decided to continue to explore Africa as out next topic, as there is just so much to learn and explore!
Music – Glockenspiels
P2s have been practicing their singing over the past few weeks and have enjoyed singing some famous songs from the Lion King. To step it up, P2s had a go at playing Glockenspiels! We learned the notes to play a simple tune to the song ‘The Lion Sleeps Tonight’ by The Tokens!
Here is a video of P2s from both classes playing glockenspiels! We enjoyed making lots of noise!
Alpaca visit!
Miss Mulvihill got a surprise note on Wednesday afternoon, telling us that there were some furry surprise guests waiting in the playground. These were 2 alpacas, the same pair seen at the Summer Fair!
Everyone got a chance to say hello and pet them. Some were so overcome by their cuteness that there were tears shed!
Pattern
The past few weeks, P2 have been busy learning about pattern. Here is a little sneak at some of the things we did this week. This includes photos of us doing a pattern worksheet where we have to continue the pattern, and making our own patters with cubes and counting animals.
Africa Writing
This week’s writing involved learning about Africa, and labelling a map of Africa with some of the country’s names. We enjoyed learning just how small Scotland is compared to Africa!
