It is great to have everyone back in P1 after the holidays. It has been a busy week and the class have had fun creating stories and characters based on Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s Room on the Broom.  As well as thinking about the rhyming words included in the story, the children thought about what kind of character they would include if there had been another page. We had suggestions of penguins, hedgehogs, monsters, rabbits and many more!  The children also created a story about what kind of broom they would create, who would be on it and where it would go.  The children painted their favourite characters from the story, paying attention to colour, shape, line and patterns from the book.

The children also had fun with Halloween themed play areas this week.

Symmetry

As part of our practical math, we have been learning about symmetry. We also used paint to create symmetrical pictures. The children took responsibility to take pictures of their own learning today, well done everyone!
