P1/2/3 have been learning about sharing and division.
We practised with cubes the skill of sharing equally.

The Sun, Moon and Earth
P1/2/3 split into three’s. One child had to be the Earth, one had to be the Moon and another had to be the Sun.
They then had to show how they orbit around each other.
Mrs Allardyce Visits
On Wednesday we had the pleasure of Mrs Allardyce visiting our class.
This term our topic in Health has been Medicines and Safety with these. Mrs Allardyce kindly talked about this and the different medication available.
The children got to try inhalers, use syringes, pretend giving injections and looking at different medicines. (No medication was involved)
Thank you Mrs Allardyce!
Forest Schools
P1/2/3 went off to the forest today and did a number of Numeracy activities with their partners.
This included number work, counting and adding activities, making symmetry pictures, problem solving and measuring.
Having Fun in the Snow
Snow is here! Working together trying to build an igloo!
Materials
The children worked together in co-operative groups to sort out the materials of toys.
They had to choose which toys were made of fabric, metal, plastic and wood.
They took turns at different tables.
Baking Christmas Biscuits
The children learned different skills when making Christmas biscuits.
They learned and followed hygiene rules throughout baking.
They followed the recipe, took turns, measured with scales, beat ingredients together, roll out the mixture and use cutters too.
Finally in the afternoon, they got to taste them too!
Making Electrical Circuits and Lighting up our Lighthouses
P1/2/3 made simple electrical loop circuits with wires, a battery and a light. They also added a buzzer and a switch in some of their circuits too.
After experimenting with these, they used their electrical circuit to light up their lighthouses which they had made previously. They all looked lovely, especially with the main lights off.
Building Towers in Science
After reading the Light house Keeper’s Lunch P1/2/3 were learning about building strong towers.
They looked at different lighthouses and most of them had a wider base, so the children worked together in groups to build one of their own.
One group built a superb tower with a very strong base, which even impressed Mrs Gaskell’s P6/7 class.
