This week in Primary 1/2 we have been solving some very tricky problems. After reading the story of The 3 Little Pigs, we were set a challenge by the Big Bad Wolf. He dared us to try and build a house that he would not be able to blow down. We used our team work skills to design a house and discussed the materials we would use. We then had a go at making some houses out of paper, wood, Lego and straw. It was a lot harder than it sounds. We had to show resilience when things got tough. 
We have been playing lots of games with our new sounds. Miss Mudd was in a real muddle this week and had jumbled up all of her sentences so she needed help putting them back together in the right order.
In PE we continued to work on our basic skills and moved around different stations to practise. We also got the balloons out to help us develop our throwing and catching skills. It was great fun!
In our writing, we are planning a story about a spider than lives in the Enchanted Forest. We have each developed our own main character and have described them using some awesome adjectives. We made our spiders out of different materials and really brought them to life!
We hope everyone has a wonderful holiday and a well deserved break. Be safe and enjoy your family time.
P1/2 and Miss Mudd
