P1/2 were shocked to find some big glittery footprints in the classroom on Tuesday. We also found a letter which turned out to be from Sir Helpalot – a knight who used to live in Fairyland before it disappeared.  Sir Helpalot has asked us to help him to save Fairyland by learning more about the stories and characters from various fairytales.  We are going to write back to him to tell him that we will help and are looking forward to reading lots of fairytales.

In maths, we have been revising how to add and subtract within 10. We have also been practising our doubling skills and used bingo dabbers to make spots and double the amount.  We have been looking at the different coins and have been learning how to pay for items using different coins and different amounts.

In literacy, we have been continuing to work on blending our sounds together to read words and have been working hard in our reading groups.

Well done boys and girls!  Keep up the good work!
