P1/2 have been learning all about writing intrsutions. We made some delicious Top Hat buns to tie in with our theme of celebrations. We then used the pictures we took during the lesson to sequence the instructions.
We have been busy over the past couple of weeks welcoming lots of new P1 faces to our LSC as well as an extra classroom assistance - Mrs McFall. It has been great playing some get to know you games as well as learning about our daily routines within the classroom. The P1's have settled in so quickly, we cannot wait to watch them grow this year.
On Thursday P1 traveled to the People's Park to take part in some forest school activities. They made 2D shapes out of natural materials in Numeracy and looked for signs of spring as part of their Literacy lesson. Of course they had to play in the brand new park before returning to school. A great day!
This term we have moved onto a new topic called 'People Who Help Us'. So far we have looked at people who help us in school, in our community and when we are sick. We met Linda (our school caretaker) this who told us exactly how she keeps us safe through tidying our school, locking the school gates and turning on the heating.
P1 and the LSC had great fun taking part in lots of Christmas Activities linked to their Literacy and Numeracy topics. Today we worked on listening carefully and following simple instructions. We played a game of pass the parcel and when we opened each layer we were given an instruction to follow. In Numeracy we are exploring capacity and measure. We talked about full, empty and half-full as we measured out the ingredients for hot chocolate. We even toasted some marshmallows on a pretend fire on the IWB to put on top of our hot chocolate!
