In Numeracy this week, we have been learning about money and loved using our shop role play area!

 

 

We also worked on some 3D Shapes.

 

 

We loved Musicality this week and making our own class band, trying out all the different instruments!

 

Some snapshorts from our phonics learning this week, ‘z’ and ‘w’!

 

 

 

 

 

We had so much fun being cars, trains and rockets shooting to the moon the week!

 

We love the the listening circle games, especially the clapping one!

 

This week we explored lots of percussion instruments –  the triangle, tambourine, maracas and bells and loved guessing which sounds we could hear.

This week we learned more about our local area and looked at some people who help us in our community.

We learned about how waste is collected in our local area and the different ways in which we can recycle.

We learned about why recycling is important and shared different ways we have cared for the environment.

.

We then identified the different types of recycling bins we may have at home and in school.

The children loved sorting some rubbish into the correct recycling bins.

 

We finished this week by thinking of some of the ways in which we have cared for the environment.

 

 

This week in numeracy, we loved learning all about time! We learned about the analog and digital clock and had lots of fun doing all of our different activities to help us learn!

 

 

We loved loved learning all about Book Week Scotland, reading lots of stories and designing our very own book creations!

 

 

 

This week was also our revision week of “ai, j, oa, ie, ee and or”

We loved our visit to Mearns Library today to collect our Book Bug Bags. We enjoyed hearing the two stories “Inch and Grub” and “Arlo ” as well as hearing about some of the different animals in “My first book of woodland animals”. We voted for our favourites before heading back to school to look at all of the fantastic resources in our bags. Everyone was so excited to take their bags home, as you can see in our photo!

This week we also started our new block of Mearns Masters.

We are ‘The Campaigners’ for our new block and this week, we enjoyed learning about our local area. We used google maps to pick out the key features and then the children designed their own map. To finish off, everyone loved creating their map out of lego!

We can’t wait for next week!

 

This week we loved our visit from Mrs Kelly in the nursery. The children enjoyed taking part in a Musicality session with music, dance and lots and lots of fun!
