Hurray – we’re off for 2 weeks!

Before we came off we started the week in the gymhall when we were busy being giants again. We acted out the next part of The Smartest Giant in Town.  This time the Giant met some mice whose house had burned down so the Giant took off one of his new shoes and gave it to the mice for a new home.  We pretended we were the mice, then we had to be the Giant hopping around the hall with only one shoe on.  It was fun!

    

Later in the week, we spoke about our classroom rules and decided to make new posters for our walls to help us remember what our rules are.  We used photographs of ourselves to illustrate our rules.  Here are some of them –  Can you guess what our rules are by looking at our pictures?

        

1.  We put our hands up and don’t interrupt.  We work together quietly.

  

2.  We share and take turns.

3.  We line up quietly and don’t push or skip the queue.

 

4.  We move safely – We walk…we don’t run.

 

5.  We listen so we can all learn… and we do what we are asked first time.

6.  We look after our classroom and equipment.  We put things away.

       

7.  We sit nicely in our seats.

In Maths we had some fun with symmetry.  We had pictures showing only half an object.  To find out what the other half of the picture looked like we had to use mirrors.  Then we were able to see the rest of the picture reflected in the mirror so we could complete the whole picture. It was very tricky and we had to concentrate very hard.

  

  

 

We have all been working very hard in class this term…but we’ve also been busy at home doing our homework.  We all tried very hard and were pleased when we got a Homework Award on Friday for all our hard work.  Well done P2a!

The star of the week  is Amy.  The Rockets are Group of the Week.  Well done!  (We wonder what our new Group names will be next term???)

So after an exciting term learning all about Space, subtraction, lots of spelling, reading and writing, we’re now off to have a well-earned rest for a couple of weeks.  Yes, Leo we can all sit back and relax!

 

until Monday 22nd October when we’ll be back for more!  (We wonder what our new Topic will be next term???)

P2a look forward to sharing more news then…bye for now! 

(Oh…..and remember to bring back  permission slips so we can all go to see The Gruffalo’s Child at the DCA on the 23rd!)
