Area 1 with P1/2 Mrs Turner and Miss Gilmour
We have PE on Thursdays and Fridays in Area 1.
Crazy Critters Enterprise Project
In term two, Area 1 made an outstanding profit of £92.50 through the sale of their crazy critter soft toys and biscuits. We have used some of this to buy the gift of Queen Bees from CAFOD. The queen attracts more bees to the hive, and more bees mean more delicious honey to eat and sell! Helping others enjoy their right to nutritious food. Lots of great ideas and decision making.
We learned lots of skills about working in partnerships and teams. We were able to solve design problems and apply learning from our work on minibeasts to make realistic critters.
They were very popular and inspired other pupils to make their own critters too!
In term one and two our topic is minibeasts. We are enjoying learning about the different types and their habitats. We are especially enjoying learning about their life cycles and observing caterpillars in our classroom as they grow and change.
In Literacy, Primary 1 are learning sounds and blending them to make little words. Primary 2 are working on blending consonants at the beginning and end of words. As well as expanding our writing by adding adjectives to our sentences.
Everyone is given reading books home on Mondays and Wednesdays.
In Numeracy we are focusing on numbers, counting, ordering and comparing amounts. We’re also learning about 2D and 3D shapes.
