Wednesday to Friday with Miss Mathers.

Hello! It has been a lovely couple of days getting to know all of the children again and seeing how much they have grown since primary 1.

We all took part in a get to know me activity which was focused around numbers in our lives. The children were able to tell me things about themselves such as their birthdays, their favourite numbers, and for some, pretending how many of our favourite foods and drinks we could eat a day!

In literacy we focused on my favourite book ‘The Gruffalo’. As the children also know this book very well, it was a great choice to pick apart the literacy within further. We were able to answer questions about things that happened in the book and then use our imagination to imagine the mouse meeting a different animal. We then used our previous knowledge of adjectives to describe our characters. We then used more adjectives to describe ourselves and 3 of our friends!

In gym we were able to work as a team, doing listening games and ball games.

We came together with the whole school and had together time. We all celebrated gaining our first green eco flag! So many of the children looked fab in their green and blue colours.

In Halloween spirit, we designed our own pumpkins of all shapes and sizes using zentangle art. They were all very creative and original. This was a lovely activity to let us all relax and prepare for the weekend.

Have a lovely weekend everyone!
