P6/7’s thoughts for the week!

‘In maths we have been learning about money, using chimney sums and practising our times tables for our new topic Fashion and Retail’. Chloe

‘We’ve been practising how to make a 999 call in Health and Well Being’ Donnie.

‘We were practising our 17x tables using number lines’. Wiktoria

In French, we have been learning greetings, numbers and colours’ Carlotta

‘Mrs Browne gave us a decade to research about fashion. We did this with partners. My partner and I looked at 1910-1919’. Ryan

‘We have been doing a block of hockey in PE. We learned passing skills.’ Abby

‘Today in drama, we carried out emergency calls so that we know what to do in an emergency’. Katie

 

 

 

 

Another busy week in p1/2

We started our topic of minibeasts this week and have used it as a context for learning across much of the curriculum.

Brodie enjoyed hunting for minibeasts in the playground in the rain on Tuesday. He particularly liked the green caterpillar he found.

In maths  we have been learning about symmetry and Stephen enjoyed painting a symmetrical butterfly. Findlay enjoyed using a laptop game to match symmetrical shapes and Ciara enjoyed using the 2d shapes to create a symmetrical butterfly (see photos below).

We read ‘The bad tempered ladybird’ and then wrote our own stories about a bad tempered minibeast and thought about what another creature could say to make the minibeast happy. Kaila enjoyed writing her story about a grumpy spider who ended up happy because a butterfly said it could share her bugs.

In number, P2s have been practicing counting forwards and backwards to solve addition and subtraction problems and Elyse has enjoyed this. P1s have been learning how to write numbers up to 5 and practcing counting using active activities and laptop games.
