On Tuesday afternoon we had our first PE lesson. We learned to develop our movement skills and to take turns with others to use the equipment safely. We enjoyed skipping, throwing & catching with the balls and bean bags, jumping with the space hoppers, balancing on the bench and running.
This week we have continued to work with our buddies to learn how to use the laptops. The P7 buddies showed us how to log on to the laptops, play games, draw pictures and look for information on the internet.
In Literacy we have been learning to listen for different sounds. Miss Harrison played different sounds and we had to identify the first and the last sound. We found the sneezing, baby crying & toilet flushing sounds very funny! On Thursday we also used our listening skills to find rhyming words. We looked at the rhyming words in Room on the Broom and played a rhyming game on Education City.
In numeracy we have been learning to form ‘0’, ‘1’ and ‘2’. We used our fingers and cotton buds to paint different numbers, made 0-2 with counters & jewels, used play dough to make numbers and practised writing the numbers in our workbooks and on the whiteboards and smartboard.
On Thursday we learned about 3D shapes. We looked at cones, cylinders, spheres, pyramids, cubes and cuboids. We used the 3D shapes to build towers and robots, played 3D shape games on the smartboard and used our play dough to make spheres, cubes and cuboids.
Thank you very much for reading our blog post. We hope that you have a lovely weekend & enjoy the sunshine!
P1A and Miss Harrison 🙂
