We’ve Learned A Lot This Term!

We can’t believe that’s another term over already and we’ve done a lot of learning. We’ve been learning lots of new skills including typing and using a dictionary to help us with our writing. As part of our topic, we all took in our favourite toy to show to the rest of the class. Take a look at some our best moments:

 

We also asked for materials to be sent in to help us with our junk modelling. This was to link to our focus on our community. In pairs, we all chose a building in our community that we wanted to build and we created a design. The next step was to build our model with Lego and Duplo to work out how we wanted to put our model together and how big we wanted our model to be. Our final step was to build our model using recycled materials. Here are some of the results:

 

A huge thank you to everyone who sent in materials for us to use for our models!

Fun with Mapping

As part of our topic of ‘Our Community’, we’ve been doing a lot of work on mapping and it has been lots of fun!

We spent an afternoon doing lots of different activities including making pictures of our homes with different shapes and colours of paper, using felt to make maps, and cutting and sticking road signs on our own maps. Take a look at some photos of our learning.

 

 

 

Jack the bear, who is helping us learn about our community, also went and hid in the school. We had to use a map to go and find him, and then we had to draw what route we took!

 

Welcome Back

We have been settling really well into Term 3 and have done lots of exciting learning already!

The end of last term was very busy with Christmas parties, our Christmas show and the Nativity that P1/2 and P4 did on the last day of school.

Below you will find our class newsletter for Term 3 with lots of important information about the learning we will be doing. You’ll also find some photos of our learning from the end of last term and some of the learning we have done so far this term.
