Lego Models
Our Lego bucket is always very popular in class and lots of children love to build models. Mrs Arbuckle made us challenge cards for the Lego this week. We read the cards and set about it.
Can You Make A Den For Teddy?
One of our challenges this week has been to make a den for the teddy with the sticks. It was quite tricky. It taught us to plan, think and have resilience. Once they learned how to do it, the “den experts” helped others.
Feel Your Bones!
We had a feel of our bones today. The felt all knobbly and bobbly. We knew that our ribs protected our lungs. we didn’t know that children’s bones are “bendy” and aren’t fully formed. We looked at an x ray of an adult hand and a child’s hand and compared the differences.
We made our skeletons with cotton buds.
Let’s Look at Bones!
We have been looking at bones in the class, following on from our look at fossils. We even have ” Mr Bones” the skeleton in class! Bones are amazing!
Learning Through Play
In P2, we continue to learn through play. More than ever, it is so important that the children learn to socialise again after being at home for such a long time.
Free play!
Little genius!
We continued being creative using our imagination skills with construction materials; Lego’s, Kaplas and with little world settings. We kept on challenging ourselves making more and more complex structures. Look at our beautiful creations!
De-constructive role play area!
This week Mrs Patra transformed our stage area into a de-constructive role play corner. We were so excited to play there as we can use any resources we want, and can pretend to be any character we like! Look at how busy we were this week. A big thanks to all the parents who kindly donated all the resources for us to play.
Learning through Play
We love our free play time in P1, where we can work on our motor skills, be creative & investigative. But most importantly, have fun with our friends. We loved the role play corner & playing the role of a teacher.
