Here is our curriculum overview for this term.
We listened to the story called ‘What the Ladybird Heard’ and then we followed it up with ‘What the Ladybird Heard Next’
It got us thinking that we could be quite creative and make some ladybird stones while we were doing outdoor learning. We had great fun, here are some pictures. We learned about colours, symmetry, numbers, ladybirds, language and many other things. All whilst having fun and working with friends.
Today we have been learning about constellations. We listened to the story of Orion the Hunter and went outside to try and make our own Orions using shells and chalk on the playground.
However, it was a bit too windy today and some shells (and our paper copies of the constellation) were blowing away! Well done P1/2 for having a go and working well with friend to make Orion!
Play in P1/2 is out of this world!
We have been learning how to use information books to find out about our Seashore topic. We now know how to use a Contents page, an Index and a Glossary too!
On Tuesday 5th June P1/2 visited the beach down from the school to explore the rockpools as part of their Seashore Topic. Mr Rose helped us to find lots of interesting creatures lurking in the seaweed! Everyone LOVED seeing the hermit crab swapping its shell!
Yesterday, Mrs Tait took advantage of the fine weather to take the children outside to work on science activities. They explored our nature garden and worked together to find examples of living and non living things. Back in the classroom, they sorted the examples they had found in different ways and recorded their findings. What a beautiful day to be outside, exploring and learning in our outdoor, school surroundings!
We have made it to the last day of term! Today we have enjoyed listening to Christmas stories in the Library and have caught up on Topic work that was delayed due to our days off with Storm Caroline. We have enjoyed playing Jingle Bells on instruments in Music time and listened to the older pupils perform for us in the afternoon. Sadly, lots of pupils have been absent today so were not here to receive their gifts, cards and decorations. They will be waiting for you in the new term.
We would like to take the chance to wish all the children and their families, a merry Christmas and a happy new year!!🎅🏻
We have been learning about the 5 senses. With me, they have been looking at our sense of touch. We measured how far our skin would stretch if you laid it out flat. The children were fascinated to see how big an area it would cover! We have been naming parts of our hands and skin and looking closely using magnifying glasses. We have talked about the “receptors ” under our skin that send messages to our brains to help us make sense of what we are touching. Very carefully, we tried using paper clips to help us feel which parts of our bodies were more sensitive to touch. We have tried using just our sense of touch to name hidden objects.
