P2 Update

Here is a snap shot of our learning this week;

Our newly resourced playroom is now in use and we are loving all the new experiences we are having.

For maths this week we have been learning the names of 3D shapes and we worked out which shapes roll because they have curved sides.

In Numbertalks this week we have used the rekenreks.  We have been working out how many swooshes it takes to make a number.  It has been a lot of fun and it is great to use the huge Rekenrek to share strategies with the whole group.

We had our class mass on Tuesday and it was beautiful.  The readers did very well reading the Bidding Prayer and we all sang our prepared hymns with enthusiasm.  Well done everyone.

We used this experience of going to mass to help us learn further how to write a recount.  We all recalled the order of events from Tuesday morning when we went to mass and then wrote a recount of this.  It was great to see all the details the we remembered!

As it was the end of National Science week on 17th March we finished our Science learning by looking at Stephen Hawking.  We used a book we bought as a class during World Book Day and learned who Stephen Hawking is and what he is famous for in the field of Science.  It was great to hear Leon’s own knowledge of Blackholes too!  What super facts Leon, thanks for sharing.

Have a lovely weekend,
