Sharing Our Learning
P3/2 have enjoyed learning lots of different ways to communicate. We collaborated in groups to create outdoor French games to teach P4 about the weather in French, learned how to say hello how are you in Spanish and Sign language. We then enjoyed a Spanish, Greek, Portuguese, Polish and Cantonese workshop. We finished off our Languages week by learning all about Braille and learned how to spell our names in Braille.
P6/5 have been learning the skills of benchball and enjoyed a spirited game this afternoon. We are encouraging teamwork and cooperation.
Slime club became play dough club today for our last session. We measured our flour, sale, oil and water and then got mixing.
During Collaboration Hour the nursery and P2/1 class learned about the celebration of Lunar New Year that is coming up soon in Chinese culture. Nursery and P1 children enjoyed a range of options including costume-play, dancing, sensory exploration, traditional games and woodworking their own dragons! P2 children researched some key elements of this celebration, and used their presentation skills to teach the younger children what they learned. All children had the chance to enjoy some healthy snacks related to the event, with several children discovering a new taste they enjoyed!
Maths this week has given children lots of opportunities to apply their new skills in subtraction. We have used counting objects, number lines, dice games, online robot-matching games and outdoor experiences. P2 children are learning to use number lines and 100 squares to solve subtraction challenges up to 100, while P1 children are working on challenges up to 30.
