On Monday we went to Tesco on the school bus. We went around the shop looking for the Fairtrade logo on different items. We all found items. We then had a snack in the café. It was great fun.

Chinese New Year
We enjoyed sensory assembly this week, thank you Snowdrops and Stars class. We were experiencing Chinese New Year.
We have had a fantastic week with lots of magical moments that has made us very proud. It was far too difficult to pick one star of the week, so I gave it to the full Oak class. They were all confident individuals and successful learners when working towards their own targets.
Here are the reasons for achieving star of the week
Jack – Taking part in a two way conversation with an adult and giving a lot information without prompting questions
Cameron – For singing and signing full songs and having the confidence to complete the song
Blake – Independence and being caring towards his peers
Ethan – Increased concentration during swimming and improvement in swimming technique
Sam – Improvement in communication and using full sentences when asking an adult a question
Anthony – Using spontaneous phrases when having a conversation with adults

Theme work
Our new theme is based around Scotland. We have been reading Hamish McHaggis and the great Glasgow treasure hunt. We then matched images from the book. They included places like Pollock park, Kelvingrove Museum and Riverside Museum, It was great fun. We looked at each of these places and the different things we would see if we went there.

FAOL – Whole school
The year we all participated in our school nativity – Away in a manger. We all tried on costumes and participated in the school performance of the Nativity rehearsals. We performed the nativity in front of an audience of pupils and the parents and helped to make props. Some pupils have been learning the song words and some signs. It was a fabulous show and the pupils worked really hard. Well Done everyone!

Christmas jumper day
Today we all wore our Christmas jumpers. Everyone had a different Christmas jumper on. We designed our own Christmas jumpers using stickers and had lots of different Christmas materials and objects in the tuff tray to design our own Christmas jumpers too. In the afternoon we joined with the Daisies and had a fun afternoon making sock snowmen, watching a Christmas film and helping to make a gingerbread house. It was a wonderful day.

FAOL – Science
We investigated candy canes. We held them in our hands feeling whether they were hard or soft. We hung buckets on the end of our candy canes and then filled the buckets up to see how many objects the candy cane could hold. We then put the items back in the box counting them as we went. It was great fun.
