Happy New Year!

This has been a short week to start the New Year but we have had a very positive start!  We have been learning about the origins of New Year’s celebrations and we have also been writing  our New Year’s resolutions for 2016! We hope we will be successful with them.

 

Busy start to 2016

P2 had a very relaxing Christmas holiday and are glad to be back at school.

  • We wrote our New Year’s resolutions and made sure we all had the capital letters and full stops in the right place.
  • In maths, we learnt how to take away small numbers from bigger numbers using cubes and sweets.
  • Sachin and Jack learnt how to draw facial features by carefully considering the proportions.
  • Ryan learnt that one type of dinosaur had a head that was the size of a modern car!
  • Daniel learnt to spell ‘beavers’ when writing about his beavers club.
