This week, P1/2 have been showing off their addition skills! The boys and girls have been working hard finding all the different number stories of 4 and 5.  We have used lots of different strategies to help us do this like using our fingers, cubes and magnets!  We have spotted a pattern with the number stories!  Can you spot it too?  There are 3 number stories of 2, 4 number stories of 3, 5 number stories of 4 and 6 number stories of 5!  We have also been practising our money skills and have been using different coins to pay for items.  Lots of fantastic independent work has been carried out this week and Mrs Lloyd is very proud of everyone!

Thank you to all the parents who were able to attend our bitesize reading sessions this week.  It was great to have you there and the children really enjoyed showing off their skills!

Well done to all the boys and girls who stood up in front of the class and managed to say their Scottish poem this week.  Mrs Lloyd had trouble narrowing it down to four finalists – well done to Chloe, Brooklyn, Olivia and Tobi.  It was a hard decision choosing the final two people who stood up in front of the whole school at assembly to recite their poems – well done to Olivia and Tobi – you represented P1/2 really well and made us all proud.

On Thursday, we listened to the story called ‘The Disgusting Sandwich’ and used this to help us make some disgusted faces in our art work.

Finally, Mr Wedlock and Mr Evans made an appearance during maths this week when they decided to have their own number talk during independent maths work time.  Great job boys!

It’s been another fun and very busy week.  Keep up the good work!
