This week we learned the ‘oo’ sound. We matched ‘oo’ words and pictures, played ‘oo’ games on Education City, looked for ‘oo’ words in a word search and made our own ‘oo’ sentences. We are able to use capital letters, full stops and finger spaces in our sentences and can use our sounds to spell words.
Our favourite ‘oo’ activity was making and playing with goo!
This week, we have been continuing to learn about subtraction facts to 5. We learned that there are different words that you can use for subtraction such as ‘less than’ and ‘take from’ and we are beginning to link our addition and subtraction facts. After the holidays we will be learning subtraction facts to 10.
On Thursday morning, we had our Easter parade. We wore our fantastic Easter bonnets and went along to the hall to show everyone our wonderful creations and to sing ‘Spring Chicken’. A huge thank you to our parents for helping us to make such amazing Easter bonnets and for supporting our Easter parade.
On Thursday afternoon, we continued our Easter celebrations. We went to the Outdoor Classroom and had a huge Easter egg hunt with P1B. Afterwards, we went onto the football pitch to have some egg and spoon races. The wind made it quite tricky as we were using plastic eggs but we still had fun!
We had some special visitors on Thursday. After lunch, we had some nursery children up to visit. Miss Harrison read us all a story and then we showed the nursery children all the activities and resources in our classroom. Miss Harrison was extremely proud of us as we looked after the nursery children very well and we were very kind, helpful and caring.
Today we went to St. Michael’s Church for our Easter Service. We were a little tired after the walk there and back but it was a lovely way to end the term. Thank you to our parent helpers who helped us to get there and back safely.
We would like to wish everyone a Happy Easter!
P1A and Miss Harrison 🙂
