Painting and Predicting

We have had a wonderful week in P1B and have enjoyed lots of painting, exploring and learning.

We drew a self-portrait and then created a colourful background for it by painting different coloured shapes.

Our self-portraits are now proudly displayed in our classroom.

We have been reading The Colour Monster and discussing each of the emotions from the story. We have learned what each of these emotions might look like and how we respond if we are feeling a particular one. We painted our own Colour Monster the colour of how we were feeling at that time. Next week, we will be thinking of a time we felt a particular emotion and drawing a picture of it.

In Literacy we have enjoyed the story ‘Spinderella’ by Julia Donaldson. Mrs Agnew read part of the story and we had to use our imagination to predict was happened next. We drew our predictions in our Literacy jotters and then shared our predictions with the class.

In Numeracy and Maths we have been doing lots of different activities to help with our number recognition. We used the number fans for the first time and enjoyed searching through the fan for a number.

We have continued to explore our classroom areas and enjoyed being creative and curious!
