Katie Morag Open Evening

Room 2 held their open evening this week and it was very well attended by our family and friends.We entertained our guests with Scottish songs and dancing in the gym hall, then we took them on a tour of our class. Just in case you missed it, here are a few pictures.

Grannie's wall was made up of bricks that described the ways we have shown ourselves to be confident individuals, successful learners, effective contributors and responsible citizens. We discussed our learning each week before writing on our bricks. Our wall is very high!

Our beach wall displays some of our writing and pictures of the birds we researched. You can also see the pictures that we took of our shell fish. We made pictures with Mrs Dargo using real shells.
In the sea we have our lovely colourful fish. We made these as a group challenge and we think they look good. We also worked together to make our bird information posters. Our sense poems are displayed around the edges.

Outside our Post Office you can see the photographs that we took when we went on our materials hunt with Room 1. We had to write about the pictures before Mrs Ayres could put them up on the wall.

Inside the Post Office are our paintings of the view from Katie Morag's window.

We finished the evening by drawing the raffle for Katie Morag's teddy bear in the hall. It was a very enjoyable night and Mrs Ayres was so proud of the children.

To make sure that all of our activities would work out, we had some new buddies from primary 6 come and try them.

We had lots of fun showing them all of our super work and our Post Office of course.

They worked through our activity sheets that we were going to use with our families in the evening. They even got to try out our jigsaw puzzles....

...and play the games that we had made.

We really enjoyed showing them round our classroom.

Primary 6 seemed to enjoy the visit too.
