Hello from P2a!  Just when we thought it was the beginning of Spring…we’ve got snow again!  Oh no……more inside playtimes!

This week we did some rehearsing for our Play about Spring, Chickens and other animals.  which we hope to present to P1-3 at assembly on 22 March. 

                               

We have some lines to learn, 2 songs and a dance…so more practise next week.

Also this week we have some photos of our prizewinners and children who have received certificates or awards recently.   Well done everyone!

   

  

In Maths this week we learned more about division and sharing objects between groups.  It’s very tricky so we’ll work on this again next week.  We’ll also continue learning our numbers to 100 because sometimes it’s hard to remember the order of the numbers.  It’s almost time for the Easter Holidays so we’ll be doing revision of the work we’ve covered this term any way.

We wrote another story this week – this time it was about an alien knocking on a little girl’s window one night.  The alien and the girl flew off in a spaceship to visit Mars, where the girl met and played with all the other aliens.  When she came back in the morning her Mum didn’t believe her.  We all managed to make up a name for our main character and had fun thinking up an adventure for the girl to have with the aliens.  Here are some of our stories.

  

  

We finished our art work and this has now been taken away to be put into frames in readiness for our Art Exhibition.  We are really looking forward to seeing our work on display soon.  We learned how glass is made with Curious Cat and talked about the beautiful stained glass windows found in buildings like churches.  In Art we decided to make our own stained glass window because we liked the idea of letting the sun shine like rainbows into our classroom. We used different coloured cellophane paper  and here’s our finished window.

                               

In Literacy we  went on another journey to China and found out more from a letter from a Chinese penfriend.  We also did a bit more writing in our Read, Write Inc workbooks using our reading books.  (**Remember everyone to bring your reading books every day because we are using them all the time.**) 

We also learned how to spell words with a silent w.  We found this very tricky so we’ll practise silent letters  again next week.

By Friday we were pleased when we had Golden Time to finish off the week.  Some of us dressed up as part of World Book day, others played with toys or the computer.  We all like playing with our friends.

  

  

                

We are excited to see that our Marble Jar is almost full, which means that perhaps we’ll get a Marble Treat next week …….maybe we can have a Red Nose/Pyjama type of party?  We’ll talk about some ideas on Monday.

Bye for now from P2a!
