P6 welcomed Scottish Fire and Rescue to our school on Monday. With Bonfire Night fast approaching it was great for the class to hear all about not only the Firework code but also how the Fire service responds to incidents at this time of year. We linked the visit to our learning by thinking about the features of the poster genre and what sort of layout and organisation would grab the readers’ attention.We used this information to create a Firewok code poster for a Primary School audience.
This week has been very busy in P2. We have been making 3D shapes out of lollipop sticks and play doh to create shapes. We have also been looking at subtraction skills and using loop cards to practise this. We began our group projects in our topic work and each group is looking at a different climate zone and thinking about the animals that live there. We are hoping to finish these in time four our Sharing the Learning afternoon in a couple of weeks. We have also discussed Bonfire safety this week and created posters to show how to be safe and have fun on the 5th November.
The Hive children have been very busy working on their Numeracy skills using the numicon and counters. Alex was practising recognising numbers, matching, sorting and counting accurately. Henry, Aria and Eoin were finding different ways to make 100.
Glen enjoyed joining in with his classes Fischy Music session and worked very hard on his gross motor skills learning how to use the scooter!
