We\u2019ve made a good start with our Wild Challenge in P1 and P2\/1. We\u2019re regularly spotting chaffinches, great tits and blackbirds among many others on our bird table and in the playground.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday afternoon we learned about what birds and other animals need \u2013 Shelter, Water, Air and Food (SWAF). We talked about where the birds could find each of these things and then made our own fat balls and kebabs for the children to take home for the birds where they live. The children have said the birds are eating the kebabs but they\u2019re not too sure about the fat balls!<\/p>\n
We had great fun with the fat balls in particular \u2013 squidgy, slimy and absolutely disgusting were just some of the words used to the describe the texture!<\/p>\n
Also this week in phonics we\u2019ve learned the long \u2018oo\u2019 (as in pool) and short \u2018oo\u2019 (as in book). We worked together to create a plasticine zoo, sharing our ideas with our friends and listening to other\u2019s suggestions to all make a different animal. We\u2019ve also been doing lots of reading and practising our key words.<\/p>\n
In numeracy we\u2019re continuing with subtraction and linking subtraction and addition facts.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
