We have been busy preparing and practising for our assembly this week, this included each of us being filmed – we love watching the video of ourselves! We are really looking forward to performing next week and are going to try hard to have big, loud voices, and to speak clearly. Please keep practising words at home.
In maths we have been working on subtraction word problems, we played with skittles as they are a fun way of talking about subtraction. ” There were 10 skittles to start with, I knocked down 6 and there are 4 skittles still standing.” It is also a good way to see the link between addition and subtraction.
We have been writing about what makes us happy. We have been discussing how we look and feel when we are happy and how it makes others around us feel too. We also learned that when we feel sad it is good to know the things that make us happy so we can try some to cheer ourselves up.
We have continued to ‘walk a mile’ on quite a few days. A mile is five times around our school pitch. The fresh air is good and as well as getting exercise it also helps us to concentrate better when we get back to class.
As always, Mrs Kennedy has seen lots of learning through play in P1B. We have been architects and engineers, artists and designers too.
The nursery children continue to visit us each week as part of their transition into p1. We are very good at showing them around, playing with them and setting a good example of how to listen and tidy up! Mrs Kennedy is delighted at how the P1 children have looked after the nursery children and they are passing on a lot of their learning too, well done!
Have a lovely sunny weekend.
P1B and Mrs Kennedy
