Today we made our very own winter snow globes. We drew a winter scene and then used paint and glitter for the snow.

We were all excited today because it was the first day of December AND the first day of winter.

We decided to put up our class Christmas tree and make some decorations.

Today we learned all about St. Andrew and made our own Scotland flags 🏴.

We had a St Andrews Day lunch too.

(having photo issues….will try and upload again later).

We had more fun doing science this afternoon. We blew up a balloon using a chemical reaction then made our very own erupting volcanoes!

We love science!!

aaaaaand….the biggest, most exciting news of the day was …. WE WON COOL CLASS CUP 😎. We are going to get a special treat next week.

Well done to this Star Pupil for her super artwork and reading in class.

We loved your Santa picture this week.

Today we had a science afternoon.

We learned about chemical reactions and predicted what would happen when we added warm water to some skittles.

We were all SO EXCITED! What a great science afternoon we had. We are going to do some more science tomorrow too.

Your child came home with a letter about this years Christmas Lunch. Can you please fill in the slip at the bottom and hand it back into school by this Friday (27th November).

P1’s and P2’s are entitled to a free school meal so the ‘Christmas Lunch’ will be at no extra cost.

A few people have asked me about handing in Christmas cards – unfortunately this isn’t going to be allowed this year. BUT we spoke about it in class and have decided we will make Christmas cards and decorations in class and use them to decorate the classroom.

Thank you.

Today we played our favourite game – I-spy.

In the afternoon we LOVED practising our drawing using ‘how to draw’ on YouTube. We concentrated so hard and were SO PROUD with how our drawings turned out.

Today we made a ‘kindness heart’ as part of Anti Bullying Week. We spoke about kind things that we do for others and how it makes us feel when someone is kind to us.

Today we had a mental maths challenge: if p1/2 got all the answers right they got to go outside for an extra play in the sun. Well done everyone on super maths!
