This week in P3B during PE we showed Mrs Lafferty our best dancing. When we came in on Monday, we had a visitor in the classroom. Buster the Elf has been visiting us from the North Pole every day this week. In science we learned about nocturnal animals. We learned about advent and made kindness advent calendars. For writing we created an elf profile. For maths we had to solve The Mystery of the Missing Reindeer Bells by solving different problems to find clues. We also learned about the properties of different 3D shapes. For our topic we started learning about how Christmas is celebrated in different countries around the world. On Friday morning we learned how to draw The Christmasaurus!
