It may only be a short week but it has been packed full of fun activities in Primary 1/2 this week. A strange parcel arrived in our classroom on Monday. It had a big sticker on it saying ‘Fragile’ and ‘Heavy’. Miss Mudd peered inside and found the one and only Paddington Bear staring back at her!
The Brown family were moving house so he needed someone to look after him. He had heard all about our wonderful class so came to stay with us. He brought a letter with him asking us to help him find a way to get back to Peru. Luckily, we are learning all about transport so we can help him with this.
He is going to set up weekly challenges for us to help with our learning. This week we had to help him pack his suitcase and write lists of things he would need to take. We then had to see if we could fit it all in! It was quite tricky.
We have also started learning about money. We used the story ‘The Great Pet Sale’ to help us understand how money is used. We have been identifying coins and using these to make a different totals. We made posters advertising our own pets to sell. We used describing words and a new traffic light system to try and push ourselves with our writing. We had to ‘go for green’ to try and improve our sentences. We also wrote labels for our toy pets and set up our very own pet sale.
We hope everyone has a wonderful few days off! Enjoy the break.
