We have had a busy week as always!

In Literacy we have been learning the sounds: z and g.  Ask us words/items beginning with these sounds! 🙂 To help us remember these sounds we created our own zebras and goats!

In Numeracy we have been learning to add and focusing on the concept of counting on.  We have been consolidating all the phrases associated with adding (count on, add on, jump on, add, more) and trying to keep “numbers in our head” and counting on.

We have been continuing with our Scotland focus in IDL.  We learned all about Scotland’s famous flower the Thistle, the Loch Ness Monster and Tartan.  We created our own tartan pattern by paper weaving!  This was tricky but none of us gave up!  We kept trying “like Ormie”.  (Ask us about Ormie…..you can even watch the little clip of Ormie on Youtube with your child! 🙂 )  In funky fingers we finger painted our very own Thistles and at our imagination station we created our own stories about Nessie!

Nativity practise has come to an end this week as we put on a dress Rehearsal of it for the whole school!  We hope to see you there on Wednesday.  We have worked so hard and want to show you our amazing singing! 🙂
