This week in P1 we have continued to revise all our sounds and tricky words and practised writing CVC words and simple sentences. Have a look at our stories about our World Book Day character, I think you’ll agree we’ve been trying very hard with our sentence writing.

In number we have continued with addition and we have also looked at sharing. We have talked about halves, quarters,  whole and equal parts. We cut up cakes to show us the different equal parts. We were allowed to eat the cake when we had finished. Yum!

We were invited to Longhaugh Nursery this week to see ‘The Gingerbread Man’. It was a puppet show and we laughed at all the things the puppets did. We knew the story of The Gingerbread Man already so it was extra nice to see the story re-told in a puppet show.

  

Our p5/6 and P6 have been studying Victorians and they held an exhibition in the assembly hall. The whole school was invited to view the exhibition. We were excited when it came to our turn to go and see it. They had researched all about the Victorians and they had made models, drawn pictures and written stories about the food Victorians ate, the clothes they wore, the houses they lived in, the toys the children played with and the schools they went to. We had been looking at toys, schools etc., from the past in our own topic so it was very interesting to see all the work P5/6 and P6 had done.

  

  

Thursday 7th of March was World Book Day. We all came into school dressed as a character from a book. There was Harry Potter, Rapunzel, Spiderman, the Gruffalo, the Lion King etc., all in class.  Even some of the teachers dressed up as their favourite character!

  

We also wrote about our favourite character.

  

It is also Mothers Day on Sunday so we made a card to give to our Mummy. It was a card of three parts and we had to use our best hand writing, our best colouring and our best cutting out to make sure we did  the best job we could for our Mums‘. What do you think?
