It has been another busy week in P1. The boys and girls wanted to change our small world area to sea creatures, so we used some blue material for the water and decorated our under the sea background to help us in our play.

There have been lots of fantastic buildings and creations in the block area this week with a movie theatre, castle and motorway being built.

Lots of creativity on show during our weekly dance lesson. This week the boys and girls had to think of all of the ways they could move their body using an imaginary ball. It was of no surprise how inventive their moves were with some imaginary throwing and catching, slam dunkin and spinning really fast whilst dribbling on display for the audience.

We are continuing to develop our understanding of money specifically ordering the value of coins, creating amounts using a specific number of coins and adding and subtracting with money.

We finished our week making some ‘midgie shortbread’ which was inspired by our story of the week ‘There was a wee lassie who swallowed a midgie’. It was a class effort to select and mix our ingredients before rolling them out to make our shortbread shapes. The classroom smells amazing and the recipe was a huge success!

Have a lovely weekend!
