We have been getting into the Christmas spirit in P2A and we can’t believe Santa comes next week!
We had our Christmas party on Monday where we had lots of fun with the P1’s and P2’s. We played lots of party games like musical statues. The teachers found it really tricky to spot who was moving, we were all so still. We looked very smart in our party clothes, even Miss Muir wore her special reindeer antlers. We even had a surprise visit from Santa at the end who gave us a class present. He was making sure that we were all on the nice list first before he gave us it!
As a class we have been doing some Christmas themed French. We played Camembear’s bauble challenge on his Christmas tree. We had to say the colour of the bauble that was shown to us on the board then find it on the tree. The bauble then had a number on it which we had to say in French to guess another bauble on the tree. We had lots of fun practising our French colours and numbers playing this game. We also learnt some new Christmas words in French. We learned words like Christmas tree and presents. We played a fun presents game to help us with this learning.
We had a special visit from P3 this week. They had created their own games with magnets as they have been learning about magnets. We worked in pairs and the P3’s told us how to play their game. There were so many to choose from such as catch the fish. We were great at taking turns playing the games and being kind towards one another. Hopefully P3 can come back again one day with more games to play!
In Literacy we have been revising some of our blends. We have been able to create mind maps of words that have the blends and been finishing off sentences using them. Some of us were able to make them Christmas themed! In Numeracy and Mathematics we have been solving number problems and recalling our number facts to 20/100. We are looking forward to starting subtraction in the New Year.
We hope you all have a fun filled Christmas and a Happy New Year when it comes. See you in 2020!
P2A and Miss Muir 🙂
