This week in PE we took part in different stations where we practiced our throwing, catching, balancing and jumping skills. In outdoor learning we had lots of fun creating mazes for our friends to follow with chalk on the playground. we used our creativity, communication, problem solving and team building skills. In health and Wellbeing we have learnt about what we need to be ready to learn, the importance of sleep and a good bed time routine. we loved creating our sleep superheroes. We have started exploring 2D shapes in maths and some of us went on a shape hunt and used natural materials to create shapes. the others will do it next week. We learned how to draw self-portraits focusing on line, shape and colour. 

The children have had a lovely week welcoming everyone back and getting to know their new teachers. This week we have played lots of getting to know you games and enjoyed exploring our new classroom. In PE we played at different stations working on a vide variety of skills such as skipping, throwing and catching, balancing… In outdoor learning we explored the school grounds and did a colour hunt to find things that matched our chosen colours. In Health and wellbeing we have discussed how we want our classroom to feel, our class charter. in art we started self portraits to make our space and to celebrate our classroom community.

Wednesday with Mrs Meiklem

What a lovely first day today! It was so nice to see everyone and share our holiday news.

We enjoyed playing class bingo and started to create our new class charter.

We liked exploring the classroom with our friends and playing outside together.

We were practising letters that start like a ‘c’ for handwriting heroes and we shared some books from the class library. At the end of the day we played spelling sparkle to practise our common words.

 

 

We hope that you enjoy sharing the learning that is happening in P2/3 at Newport Primary School.
