Another great week in P1B.

One of our favourite tasks this week was learning about Shrove Tuesday. We carried out a survey to find out the most popular topping in the class and then Mrs Russell gave us a pancake with our favourite topping on it. They were delicious!

We also learned about the meaning of Ash Wednesday and enjoyed a visit from Father Simon, when some of us received ashes. We learned about Lent and discussed something we could give up or take up for 40 days and 40 nights.

We enjoyed taking part in World Book Day activities, such as ‘Drop Everything and Read’ and a mystery reader to the classroom. We enjoyed listening to her read to us beside the fire.

This week in topic we read the story ‘The Cautious Caterpillar’ and learned all about the life cycle of a butterfly. We enjoyed making a life cycle craft using pasta and rice.
