Wow, what a week…we’ve been busy bees in P1.
At the start of the week we planted seeds as part of our living things topic. We learned what the seeds would need to survive and wrote about it. We know that the seeds will need water, light and air to grow and survive. We also thought they would need our love and care!
we also started learning about symmetry in maths. We made symmetrical butterflies for our living things wall by painting one wing of the butterfly then folding it over to make the other wing exactly the same. Symmetry is like matching only the other way round. The two sides are the same but one will be back to front of the other. We also made symmetry patterns with pegs and with lots of art materials.
At the end of the week we were printing with the bottom of bottles. We made lovely spring blossoms using beautiful spring colours. They are up in our classroom and it looks very spring like!
this morning we watched the eclipse with P1/2. It looked like the sun was actually the moon. It looked like it was night time but it wasn’t! We then used pastels to draw pictures of the eclipse!
That was a really busy week P1. I hope you are still looking after your plants.
I love the printing you did with the bottles. They look beautiful in class.
