Hello P2B families!
Here are our highlights from the Green Table:
TJ enjoyed our Mindfulness lesson during Health this week. The children, once again, have been learning about their feelings and strategies for how to get ‘Back to Green’. This week we learned about Mindfulness. We know that means to slow down and pay attention to what is around us. We examined our fingers and veins as a means of paying attention to what was around us and slowly walked around the room to see if we could spot something that we never noticed before. Sometimes our brains can feel like there is a storm in there, so we need to calm the waves down. Mindfulness is one way of doing this.
Eli liked our final Magic e lesson this week. This time it was with the vowel ‘u’. He liked the word ‘cube’ best. Next week we will explore other spelling patterns that also make this sound (ew and ue).
Lilly loved making our April Showers pictures. We hope to send these home next week.
Sofia loved playing with the loose parts in the outdoor sheds. She enjoyed the tyres best.
Karina said the best part of her week was our learning about dividing. We know that this means sharing equally. We discovered that Multiplication and Division are linked! For example, 2×6=12 and 12 ÷ 6=2! The same digits are used.
Mrs Devlin’s favourite part of the week was our maths lesson on Area. The first item we found the area of was our jotter. Once we fully covered it in cubes, we wondered how we were going to count all of them without getting ourselves in a muddle as there were quite a lot of cubes! Theo was a clever clogs and discovered that each row had 10 cubes so we could count in tens! Mrs Devlin and P2B were very impressed! Well done Theo! We are going to be learning about the 10 Times Tables soon. Our ability to count in tens is really going to help us.
Congratulations to Georgia-Rose, our Hot Chocolate award winner for this week!
I hope you enjoy the long weekend and look forward to seeing everyone on Wednesday. I can’t believe we our in our final term already!
