Jasmin chose the Fine Motor Skills “Moon Shoes” activity when playing today. She was very proud that she had tied the laces by herself, well done Jasmin! This is an excellent skill to learn and now you can be a helper for all those laces that become undone in P1/2!
We were all very proud of the children who managed to fit the blocks back in the box at tidy up time (except for a few shapes that simply couldn’t fit in!) Well done everyone!
P1 have been busy listening to and identifying the first, middle and end sound in words. We have even been using coloured salt on a light box to write words! Our words shine through!
For our end of term Maths assessment task, the pupils have enjoyed creating robots that have control panels that can be changed. The first control panel we made had to have a repeated 2D shape pattern. Some pupils chose to colour the patterns in order too. The second control panel needed to show symmetry. This was harder and some pupils took a couple of attempts to get this right. Symmetry has also been worked on at home where pupils created symmetrical butterfly patterns and also as our Maths Task this week. Some great symmetrical patterns were created. Look at some of the super work that has been completed by P1/2!
Working on symmetrical patterns in our Task time. Good work you two!
P1/2 have been learning about money during Maths time and while at play. Our gallery of photos show some of the practical activities they’ve been doing.
Recognising the coins we need to use.
Matching, sorting and naming the coins.
Leighton thought the till was untidy. He sorted all the coins for us! Good work Leighton!
