Hello P2A families!

Here are the learning highlights of the week from the Red Table:

Olivier enjoyed the lesson about the Angel Gabriel visiting Mary with the message that she would have a son, Jesus, the son of God.

David S loved our St Andrew’s Day celebrations, especially drinking Irn Bru and eating shortbread.  Thank you Mrs McKissack and Mrs McLaughlin for this lovely treat!

Julia said the best part of the week was today, Crazy Hair Day!  We noticed that Julia’s hair was symmetrical with all her lovely, bright hair bobbles.  We had been learning about symmetry with Mrs Brand this week!

Joe also loved eating shortbread.

David K liked making paper trees today for our window display.  The children completed instructional drawings for the trees and robins.  Be sure to have a look at our lovely Christmas themed window display when you are next in the playground.

Chiji liked listening to the story ‘My Big Shouting Day’ when the class explored the feeling of anger and how to self-regulate to calm their body down.  Chiji said he liked the strategy of getting a hug to help him feel better.

Zosia enjoyed the maths lessons this week where the children were learning to read and write number words up to 100.

My highlight has been watching the children become more independent in the Nativity rehearsals.  Most know their stage directions without prompt and the singing is beautiful!  We are very excited to have our dress rehearsal on Tuesday and filming will take place on Friday.
