P2/3 had great fun yesterday for World Book Day.  It was fantastic to see so many different book characters in the classroom.

At assembly we had chosen a group to perform a drama based on The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig.  They performed confidently and we were very proud of them.

In class we developed our team work skills when we completed the World Book Day Quiz.  Mrs Thomson was impressed with our knowledge of different books and we found some new books that we would like to read.  We assessed our team working skills at the end and decided that we still need to work on this.  We hope to develop our skills further over the next few weeks.

We created book covers for our favourite books after reading Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book and enjoyed it when P7 came to visit and read with us.  All this and having to be prepared for the reading alarms that kept sounding during the day kept us busy!

Another fun filled week in P1/2.  In maths this week we have been working on the number stories of 6 and 7 and have been using cubes and counters to help us to work out the missing numbers in sums.

We received a letter from Sir Helpalot who has asked us to build him a strong castle.  After discussion in the class, P1/2 came up with the idea of building castle models to help keep him safe.  He also left us a clue and after a while we managed to work out that he wanted us to read Goldilocks and the Three Bears.  We read the story and had lots of fun in the structured play area around the theme.

We had super fun on world book day and enjoyed dressing up as our favourite book characters as well as talking about why we like bedtime stories, voting on our favourite fairytale and reading books in the library.  We also had an extra special treat when P5/6 came down to read to us.  It was so much fun!
