Today we read a poem called ‘ I Like Me!’ by Babs Bell Hajdusiewicz. We then talked about what things we like about ourselves and others. We then decided to write our owns poems adding in all things we like about ourselves.

We have been working on our ICT skills today using the laptops.
The pupils have been able to:
– Turn on the computer
– Log on
– Find and click on the internet button
– Close a browser
– shut down the computer
Well done P1/2

In PE today we had four different stations to build on developing our rolling, jumping, throwing and co-ordination skills.

Today before assembly we did a variety of activities: P1’s were practising writing the letter ‘g’, some of the P2s were doing different literacy activities,(buildings words, spelling). We also done some different numbers games.

In our writing lesson today, we decided to write letters to Santa to thank him for all the wonderful presents he gave us.

P1/2 had fun In PE today doing a Christmas game called Elf Express where they had to work as a team to collect and deliver presents. They were able to listen and work collaboratively with each other. Well done

This afternoon the P1/2 enjoyed doing some paired reading with the P5/6/7.

We have been working on our number bonds today and doing some fun number games to help with our addition and subtraction.

We have been making reindeer dusk to help guide the reindeer to our homes.

P1/2 received a letter from Santa this morning letting us know that Rudolph had been found in the field at the back of the school. Santa saw all the missing posters and thought they were fantastic and was really grateful for our help. He looks forward to coming back to Elphinstone on Christmas Eve to deliver all the presents to the children. Well done P1/2
