Hello everyone,
We wanted to share with you our favourite activity this week.
“We had to listen to our partner’s instructions.” M
“We couldn’t touch the people when they were walking, we needed to say the directions to help them.” E
“We were learning to listen and to give instructions.” A
“We had to direct our partner from the class door to the outside door.” D
“We were blindfolded and couldn’t see anything, we had to listen hard.” S
We all had great fun exploring positional language and creating instructions to our friends.
Thank you for reading our blog. We hope you have a lovely weekend.

Good afternoon,
Room 1 have had a great week this week and have enjoyed lots of new learning. We have been very lucky with the weather this week and have loved taking our learning outside. For example:
We took part in a fun fitness session on the pitches with Miss Finch and the Primary 1 and 2s.
We took our reading outside, and partner read our books.
We played show me don’t tell me with chalk to practise spelling our common words.
We practised writing our numbers to 20 with chalk and recalling our numbers before and after.
Please see pictures below of some of our outdoor learning.
Have a lovely weekend.
Thank you!

In class we have been looking at the different ways that children learn. Some people can listen, some can read instructions and others can watch a demonstration. We found that the best way to learn is by getting someone to demonstrate as you can get to see exactly how something is done.
During PE this week Mr Allen demonstrated a game to us and we got to play the game which was good fun. We were then split into groups and we then got to design our own game using different equipment. When we were finished we got to try it out. After trying out the game we had to make lots of changes because things didn’t work out at first. Even though we made mistakes during the planning process, this actually helped to make our games better. So always remember it is ok to make mistakes as long as we learn from them.

As part of our nurture afternoon this week, Room 6 focussed on the principle ‘Children’s learning is understood developmentally’. We discussed the importance of understanding that people learn in different ways, before making a whole class poster about some ways that we like to learn. We came up with some super ideas and these can be seen below.
On Thursday, Room 6 have many exciting things coming up. We are looking forward to going on a trip to Euromix in the morning and welcoming family members in the afternoon for our learning showcase. As part of our planning for the showcase, we all picked a piece of work that we are proud of to put up on our WOW wall. Each piece is something that we enjoyed completing to support our learning and that we like talking about. Have a look at our great display.
We have been using our voices this week to identify what we have liked to learn about and why. We have made a PowerPoint for the showcase which highlights different learning experiences we have loved during P2 and reasons for this. We also had a chance this morning to complete thought bubbles on different curricular areas to show how we have found areas of our learning.

Here are some comments on our learning this week:
Have an amazing week!

As part of our literacy today, we decided to enjoy some outdoor learning to also celebrate World Earth Day! We love our outdoor environment and enjoyed practicing this weeks spelling words in loads of active ways! We worked individually, in pairs and in groups to spell tricky words with lots of different resources!

Room 5 enjoyed being back at school this week, catching up with all their friends. It was lovely to see everyone again and hear all about their Easter break.
This week in Maths, we have been completing some data handling work. We have been looking at organising data for various graphs and diagrams. We used tally marks to collate information and then compiled it into bar graphs and Carroll diagrams. We were able to answer questions based on the data collected.
On Thursday 25th April we would like to welcome parents/carers to our ‘Learning Showcase’. This is a child-led experience where the children will be showing some of the learning that has taken place in our class and completing some activities with you. This event will be from 1:40-2:40 and we look forward to seeing you then.
