P1b

We have been reading The Enormous Turnip. Next week we are going to be making and tasting turnip. Turnip is a vegetable. We are excited to try it.

This week we have been busy measuring the length of different things in our classroom and outside. We have used cubes, our hands and our feet.

What a wonderful week in P1/2! We have enjoyed lots of different P.E. lessons. Have a look at our photographs.

Today we had an Apple Day in P1/2. We all brought an apple to school. Ashton had eyes on his apple! We found out there are lots of different types and names of apples. Everyone cut apples into halves and quarters and then we tasted them. In the afternoon we printed with apples. It was fun!

We were all working hard on Monday and then a man came into our classroom with 10 live eggs. We have loved watching them and we have taken excellent care of them all week. On Wednesday 6 eggs hatched. When we came to school on Thursday 3 more had hatched overnight. At 11.30am on Thursday we watched the last egg hatch in front of us. Next week we will have the chance to hold the chicks.

On Tuesday we went on our class trip to Summerlea. We went on a tram and looked at different houses from the 40’s, 60’s and 80’s. Some of us were very brave and went down the mine. We enjoyed our lunch in the park. We had a great time! Miss Wallace was delighted with our behaviour.

We have had great fun out in the sunshine. What a cracking week we have had!

We are learning about back in time. This afternoon we looked at different objects, photographs and pictures in groups. Then we had to sort them into old and new. It was fun!

We are all excited for our Assembly tomorrow. We have all been practising hard at home and in school. We will see you all tomorrow.

We are learning to go forwards, backwards, left and right. Here we are outside practising.

Yesterday P1/2 went to the post office. We put letters into the post box and we looked at some stamps. We all enjoyed it very much.
