It has been a very chilly week but our learning in P2/1 has been keeping us warm. This week we have continued to learn about our topic of Our Community and we have focused on Fire Fighters. We heard the story of Charlie the Fire Fighter, we learned about her uniform and the skills she has to have to be the best Fire Fighter she can be.
In literacy;
P2 – We have rounded up our work on writing descriptions, we have used lots of adjectives and learned that colour and number words can be used as adjectives to describe things. We used our PM Writing programme of work to help us with this.
P1 – We have learned the sounds g and d this week. We have been colouring pictures that show these sounds.
In Numeracy;
P2 – We have been adding this week. We explored how numbers get bigger when we add. We used rekenreks, counting beads and ten frames to help us. We developed our learning of adding on ten and nearly ten, and we could do this in our heads.
P1 – We have been exploring through play and concrete material as well as pictorial representation addition within 10.
Have a lovely weekend,
Mrs Currie and P2/1
Your topic sounds really interesting, firefighters do such an important job! Perhaps you could contact the local fire station for more information, they might even come and visit you.
