This week in P1 we have continued to revise all our sounds and practised sounding out and writing cvc words. It’s quite tricky to make words but we are trying very hard and some of us are really getting quite good at it.
We have continued to look at time. This week we learned about digital time. We learned that in digital time the ‘o’clock’ has two zeros. We played time bingo games, loop card games and used our time beebot mats to help us with our analogue and digital times.
It is the last week of our water topic and we talked about freezing water. We put water into two trays. One we put outside overnight and the other we put into the freezer. We had to decide if we thought the water in the outside tray would freeze or not. What do you think happened? Do you think the water in both trays froze? We wrote a sentence in our thinking books.
We also put water inside a rubber glove. We discovered the glove was still soft and wobbly when the water was inside it, but when we put the glove into the freezer overnight when it came out the water inside was frozen, the glove and the frozen water had become very hard and solid indeed!
In art we made our own jelly fish. We finger painted them using a pattern of colour. We then made tentacles from coloured cellophane and stuck them onto the jelly fish. Don’t they look good?
The big boys and girls in P6 came down to our classroom and read different story books to us. They will be doing this over the next few weeks and we will then be voting on our favourite book.
