Monday to Wednesday with Mrs Meiklem

We have had a busy week so far. We have made our class charter and talked about our rights. We also made our own 5 point scale and shared strategies that make us feel better.
We used the iPads to log in to Sumdog independently and also did some addition work.
We have done lots of writing this week. We wrote a recount about our weekend and also a description of the main character in our book ‘Pirate Sparklebeard’! In our Big Writing lesson we made up our own imaginative stories and they were fabulous! Some of us went to read them to Miss Donaldson and she was very impressed.

We had Loose Parts on Tuesday and we made our own pirate ships in groups, learning to work together and follow the FAIR agreement. In drama we played some games using different character voices and mime.
PE was fun with lots of throwing and catching games to music!
Mrs Meiklem heard us all reading this week and was so impressed at everyone’s hard work.
Our class trip to Friarton farm is next Tuesday. Please remember to send in your form.

 

Friday 23rd August 2024

We have all enjoyed our first few days back after the summer break. We have loved catching up with our friends and meeting our new teachers. We have been busy sharing and writing about our holidays. We learnt about Mrs Robertson and made all about me pictures to help everyone get to know each other.

We started learning about the Wellbeing Indicators which are important to help us be the best we can be. We set up different stations, in the classroom, for each indicator. Our favourites were the safe indictor where we got to cosy up with soft toys, blankets and pillows and listen to stories and the healthy indicator station where we ate apples and bananas and played healthy I spy.

We enjoyed Loose parts play outside where we had to work well as a team, communicate and problem solve. We made some very cool structures!
