This week we have been continuing to learn about the months of the year. Here you can see us working in groups to put them in the right order.

On Friday afternoon we worked as a team to create a porthole display for the entrance to P2. Each class is going to make their own porthole.

We talked about what we might find under the sea. Mrs Grieve was impressed by the amount of things we could think of!

Next we all made our own sea creature. We could use whatever we wanted to decorate and create it. Some of us wanted to use the fish outline Mrs Grieve had printed out, but some of us drew our own.

When we were finished, we helped create the porthole. We did this like a collage, by sticking on pieces of blue and white paper and tissue paper.  We also cut strips of green paper with our fancy curvy scissors to make seaweed.

We are looking forward to seeing the finished article soon!

We have been talking and learning lots about emotions this week. We read ‘The Colour Monster’ and sorted different emotions into the colours we thought they would match.

Then we created our own Monsters! In the morning when we come in, we put our own monster into the bowl which best describes our emotions that day. Green for calm, red for anger, yellow for happy and blue for sad. This means our teachers can check in on how we are feeling.

We looked again at ‘The Koala Who Could’ and wrote about his emotions and how they change over the course of the story.

This week we have also been introduced to Daily Literacy Learning (DLL). We have been learning all the different tasks and are doing very well at keeping our group boxes organised and tidy.
