P2B have been busy during this short week at school.

We have been practicing the 5 times table and exploring division too. We have been learning how to say the months in Spanish and will continue to practice this. For some revision, we have been playing different games to practice spelling common words – bingo was the favourite!

We read the story ‘The Three Billy Goats Gruff’ and discussed the message about not being too greedy. We then looked at different famous bridges – the children recognised some of them and Sean shared that he went to see the Forth Road Bridge and Rail Bridge yesterday. The children then took part in a building a bridge challenge. In teams they had to make a bridge that would be strong enough to hold the Three Billy Goats so they could safely cross over to the other table. They made super bridges and worked really well in their teams.

Here are some pictures from our bridge challenge:

 

Highlights from the blue table:

Sean – I thought PE was the best because I love throwing things as far as I can.

Rowan – I liked building a bridge for the Three Billy Goats to cross. My bridge was super strong and my team won the challenge.

Nicolas – I liked the building challenge too because I really like building bridges and other things.

Olek – I liked the building bridges because we used lots of things to make the bridge strong and long enough so it could hold the Three Billy Goats toys.

Moeez – I liked common word bingo because I won the prize.

 

Congratulations to Sean who is our new Reading Champion!

 

Have a lovely weekend,

Miss Lawrence
