Children in Need in the Pine Room

This week we were looking at the letter E again in literacy, looking at words that beginning with this letter and in art we were successful learners and made a picture of a egg using tissue paper squares and PVA glue.

In SQA Communication we finished our Brown Bear Story, we sorted through the characters again, signed the animals and colours, danced along to the rap, and worked on our colouring books.

Karen was here on Wednesday to do some Indian Dance with us focusing on Animals that started with the letter E – we were very confident individuals and had great fun.

For SQA Numeracy we played a game of ‘Haggis Drive’, as we have started our Scottish Theme, working on our counting skills and drawing in the pieces of the Haggis.

Each class has a paper  lantern to decorate to be displayed in the Atrium for Christmas, with our Vice ECO Captain we decided on a very topical theme of Global Warming!!!

Give the Snowman back his hat back!!!

So our Snowman is starting to melt – remember reuse, recycle and reduce!!!

Working on another Christmas Project.

For Children in Need we enjoyed a lovely social snack, had a wee Disco (not as long as Sophie Eliis-Bextor’s!!) And made some dotty Pugsy Faces.

Have a Smashing Weekend Everyone!!!

Literacy, Art, Science and Dominoes in the Pine Class

 

We have been successful learners and continued working on out Alphabet books – we made some lovely Caterpillar pictures using green and yellow paint and different brushes – great concentration.

In our SQA Communication Unit, we listened to the ‘Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What can you see?’ story and the rap again and chose your favourite animal – although some of us just could not decide!

We listened to the Singing Hands telling the story and practised our Makaton signs.

Mrs Mac organised a great activity for Diwali, we made clay elephants with jewels, the clay feels lovely to work with , a great sensory experience and good for exercising our hands.

WOW!!!!

On the MOVE!

Disco Time!!!

We have been working on our IDL Unit and trying to regrow some vegetables – progress report next week!

Smelling and touching the different vegetables.

IDL- Fantastic Mr Fox wanted posters.

The Comets have settled in well after the holidays and have been happy to see all of their friends.

As part of our theme work we have continued to enjoy the story of Fantastic Mr Fox- we are nearly at the end of the story!

The children have been successful learners this week and have produced wanted posters for Mr Fox. First, we created and wrote a description of Mr Fox and the crimes he has committed. Secondly, we  followed a step by step tutorial to create our own drawing of Mr Fox for our posters. All of the children had fantastic listening and i’m sure you will all agree, produced some amazing work!

Have a lovely weekend,

From the Comets ladies.
