Scottish Baking in Primary 1

Today Primary 1 baked shortbread and oatcakes as part of our preparations for the Primary 1 coffee morning this Friday. We used scales to measure the ingredients and watched carefully for them to balance. We then had lots of fun rolling out the dough and cutting out circle shapes. The children are looking forward to trying our super baking on Friday.

Primary 1 Dance Workshop

Yesterday Primary 1 took part in a dance workshop. The children listened to the story of Giraffes Can’t Dance and then learned to dance the Cha, Cha, Cha, the Tango and a Waltz. The children listened carefully to the beat of the music to work out what dance it was. Well done Primary 1.
