We went on a walk to discover how the trees were changing.
We put the things we found in a tray and are watching to see how they might change.
Will the leaves continue to change colour?
Will they stay nice and soft?
This term we will be looking at celebrations, why we remember certain dates and how we mark these days.
Today we thought about when we might celebrate something.
This site shows the formation of the letters we have been practising.

Last term we used Numicon shapes to help us with number work. This term some of us are using the coloured Cuiseinaire rods. We have learned what number each coloured rod represents and are now using the rods to make simple sums.
How excited we were to continue the music fun we began in P.1, when Mr Maclean came to visit us today.
We learned about pitch ( high and low), beat and rhythm with some fun songs and games.
Today we practised writing the bouncy letters ( b and p).
We used bouncy balls to demonstrate the way these letters bounce. It helped us remember how to form these letters correctly.
