P3.11 Blog 2023/24

I’m super impressed with how much thought and effort the boys and girls put in to creating their time capsules. I loved the variety of items and the reasons why they were included in their box. Everyone did a great job presenting them to the rest of the class and I couldn’t believe how confident you all were. Great job everyone👍😊!

Last week we were learning about the effect of pattern and shape in art. We decided to create some wonderful art for our rainforest role play area by focusing on patterns and colours that we could see on rainforest animals. Some of us were inspired by the red eyed frog, tiger, cayman, jaguar, parrot, toucan and different snakes. We can’t wait to add them to our role play area😊.

Yesterday the boys and girls in 2.8 were having lots of imaginative play in our outdoor area. We decided to use it to inspire our story writing and wrote a story today about ‘A Magical Journey’. Great job boys and girls!

Eirikur kindly brought in some information about the Faroe Islands which he loved sharing with the class. He brought in a map and even taught us some Faroese words. Thank you Eirkur and well done for being a confident individual!

This morning we had a visit from St Ninian’s Beekeepers. We listened to lots of interesting information, touched some honeycomb and some of us even got to try on some of the protective suits.

Learning how to work out the age of trees in our woodland area today. 

Here are some pictures from us engaging in play! You will see some of us at the ‘Creative Area’ painting our clay models. Others are building using Lego at the ‘Construction Area’. Some boys and girls are playing in our role play area which we made into Hamden stadium! There are also some boys and girls completing their Numeracy and Literacy targets at our ‘Target Table’ and finally some playing at the ‘Fine Motor Skills Station’. Well done everyone!
