P1 enjoyed having Miss Gibson in the classroom.  They loved baking and decorating cakes.

Today we had Christmas dinner at school and then we had a party!  We had turkey and trimmings for the main course followed by ice cream, toffee sauce and sprinkles.  Everyone got crackers too. We played lots of games in the hall in the afternoon. A great day was had by all.

We have been exploring our 5 senses as part of our topic this term.  Today we explored our sense of taste.  We used our sense of sight to look at the outside and inside of different fruits, we used our sense of smell to smell the fruits and finally, we tasted the different fruits.  We had to used lots of descriptive words to say how the fruits looked, smelled and tasted.  Can you guess the fruits we tasted from our photos?

The number 8 is a tricky number to write.  Today we read a story about Amazing Eight and then we did lots of different activities to help us to write the number 8.  We used our fingers to draw number 8 in sand and in shaving foam.  We practiced using whiteboards and pens and also on practiced on giant bits of paper.  Levi drew a number 8 on his whiteboard and turned it into a dinosaur with 8 spikes and 8 spots!

This morning we had a freeflow play session with Little Tykes.
