We had lots of fun exploring Symmetry and reflection outdoors. We imagined we were looking in a mirror and used our bodies to make shapes. Our partner then copied the shape to show the reflection. We then used natural materials to create symmetrical patterns, faces and animals.
We made the most of the sunshine this morning and took our language work outside. It was fun writing our words in chalk and using them to build sentences.
A huge thank you to everyone who supported the children in preparing their solo talks. The children were nervous, excited and very impressive. They were immensely proud of themselves when they got a round of applause from the class.
Well done Primary 1.1
We cleaned away the Autumn leaves 🍂 and planted spring bulbs in the Eco garden. We look forward to observing the growth of our plants and watching them bloom 🌼 🌷
We had a lovely time hearing all about Alexandra’s toy reindeer. Muhammad Fareed and Matthew talked about their favourite toy cars. Emily shared stories about her dog Pebbles. We heard about trips to London, Edinburgh Zoo, France and Disneyland and about being a big sister.
Well done to all of the boys and girls who spoke to the class today.
In ICT today we logged on with confidence before opening up ActivInspire.
Then we created and explored various 2D shapes.
Group by group we also got to explore the VR headsets.
So many exciting places we can explore!
This morning we went on a nature walk around the school to look for signs of Autumn. We gathered Autumnal treasures in our paper bags.
Once we returned to our classroom we worked together in groups Using our treasures collected on our walk as props for storytelling.
We had wizards wands, dragon scales and poisoned berries.
In the picture above you can see a map of the swamp that featured in one story!
Some of our leaves were also changed into different characters.
Here are some of the children’s thoughts about our learning this morning.
This was an exciting day. We found a forest full of wonderous nature. Aaron
