As part of their World Around Us Topic - ‘Look at Me’, Mrs Calderwood arranged for Dr Shannon, Toby and Jacob’s mum, to come and talk to the P1 and P2 children about her job as a GP.
The children asked Dr Shannon lots of questions about her job. She told them about some of the equipment she uses at work:-
Blood Pressure Monitor
Stethoscope
Thermometer
Ear Torch
Dr Shannon also told the children some ways to keep healthy -
Eat 5 a day
Take plenty of exercise - even going to the park is great exercise
Play safely
Remember, sweets and crisps are only for treats!
Dr Shannon brought some wonderful doctor and nurse dressing up outfits, which the children used in their role play.
Thanks to Dr Shannon for taking time to come and give the children such a lot of useful and interesting information about her job.
