Hi!

We hope you have had a good week. Last  week we started our Designers Mearns Masters . For this Mearns Masters we will be designing toys for the nursery. We split into little companies and  went down to the street and got the nursery children to design a soft toy.  For example group 7 are making sonic for Calum and group 4 are making a mermaid for Hania.

Today we enjoyed a lovely Christmas Party in our gym.

We participated in party games such as pass the parcel and more. We had a lot of fun and over all it was a great party.

We got a packet of sea salt  crisps and and a carton of juice.

In the party there was a lot of running around, and some dancing. 

Happy Holidays Everyone!

Today  we did  some Maths Top Trumps  based  on the Men’s World  Cup. The cards had times tables and division questions on them.

How we used math for each of the categories – we did a quiz about the countries that played in the World Cup and we were in teams of 4.

How you play –   you see which category is the highest and the other players say their calculation  and the biggest answer gets everyone’s cards.

It was fun.

This week in P5.18 we played with construction toys, learning about 3D shape and materials.  We also made Christmas Cards that we are able to buy once they are sent away. We painted Dias for Diwali  in the art room with bright metallic paints.

We also started our new Mearns Masters called Gastronomers  also known as cooking. We made shortbread, it was tasty. One half of the class went but the other stayed and wrote about shortbread and the recipe. 

This Thursday the oak group is going to a movie as a reward for winning the house points for Term 1. On Friday all of us are going to a movie! We are very excited!
