Hello P2B families!
Here are the learning highlights of the week from the Red and Green Tables:
Ollie said the best part of his week was when we were counting in twos during Maths. He did a super job organising a pile of socks into pairs and counting in twos to find out how many there were altogether. He discovered that counting in twos is quicker than counting in ones!
Ishaan absolutely loved watching a cartoon his grandparent may of watched called, ‘Morph’. We then using the app ‘Stop Motion’ to create our very own Morph cartoons! We manipulated playdoh to create different freeze frames that the app then put together to form a short film. They were super! Some children still need to make theirs as we ran out of time.
Maya liked playing ‘Green Light, Red Light’ during PE with Mrs Laffterty.
Olivia said the favourite part of her week was revising the ‘ch’ sound. We discovered that ‘tch’ makes the same sound too and mostly comes after a vowel at the end of words. She liked cutting coin shapes out and sticking them into a piggy bank that contained that sound.
Lewis loved our lesson about Capacity. The children learned that the packaging of liquids tell you exactly how much liquid is in the bottle. In P2 we focus on litres and half litres. The children guessed the capacity of different sized containers and then compared their results withour findings after we actually filled them with a measuring jug that held one litre.
Evana said the best part of her week was watching the Morph cartoon. They can be found on Youtube but the one we watched can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgeUu8pXDeY&t=453s
Safaa liked the game we played linked to our learning about the ‘tch’ sound. We had to throw a ball or beanbag up into the air and catch it when we heard a word that ended with this sound. Safaa was one of the winners!
Theo enjoyed the Autumn art we completed this week. Look out for your child’s beautiful Autumn art on Seesaw over the weekend!
Amariah-Grace chose the House Group winners reward as her ‘best bit’ of the week as she was in the winning house, St Filan! The winners enjoyed a movie in the Hall with snacks.
Mrs Devlin’s highlight was when we talked about the changes we see all around during the season of Autumn, Mrs Devlin’s favourite season. We marvelled at the beauty of God’s world at this time of year.
Congratulations to TJ, our Hot Chocolate award winner this week!
I hope you all enjoy the break and I will see you all back to school on Wednesday 19th! I cannot believe we are at the end of Term One already! Before we know it, it will be Christmas! How time flies when you are having fun!
