What an extra busy week we have had in P2A. It has flown by, must have been all the singing and dancing we have done!
Look below at what we have been doing in our play based learning…
This week we showed our Nativity: ‘Lights, Camel, Action’ twice in one week. The church was such a special place to perform in. We acted, danced and sung our hearts out. We loved wearing all our costumes, it got us into character! Miss Muir was very proud of us all and thought we were all stars. Thank you to everyone who came and for being so kind with your donations at the end of the performances. You were so kind in fact that we did get our special party! We played lots of fun games and had some food as well. Even though we were Nativity mad in P2A we were still learning as much as ever.
In Literacy, we have been revising our P2 common words. We were able to create some fantastic festive sentences, played common word board games in pairs and used play dough to make our words. Miss Muir noticed how kind we were when playing the board games. We were taking turns and helping each other out if we weren’t sure about a word. We could even spot common words in festive sentences on the board.
In Numeracy and Mathematics we have been recalling our number facts for 20 and adding 3 numbers (2 digits and 1 digit numbers) up to 20. Some of us have even been challenged to solve number facts up to 100 and adding 3 numbers up to 100 as well! To help us with adding 3 numbers we played a game called ‘Dice Addition’. This is where we rolled three dice, wrote the sum on a whiteboard then solved it by ourselves or with a partner. We were even giving each other clues as to what the answer could be. We enjoyed it so much that we were filling our whiteboards full of calculations! Miss Muir couldn’t believe how many we had solved. We were very proud of our work so we showed the class.
We have had a fun week this week but are definitely needing a well-earned rest. We hope you have a relaxing weekend and see you next week ready for a busy last week of term.
P.S. Please remember party clothes for Monday!
P2A and Miss Muir 🙂
