Today we had a visit from a police officer, she talked to us about online safety and how we can protect ourselves online and if we do become aware of something online we can tell an adult. We also talked about road safety and how to stay safe on the road.
This week we focused on two different types of dancing. We looked at modern dance and highland dancing. We tried different elements of each dance style and started to create a small dance routine. We had loads of fun but our feet were very sore with all the dancing. 💃
Well done to everyone this week.

As part of our Winter wonderland topic we have been learning about celebrations and festivals in Winter. Chinese new year was celebrated on January 29th, we read the story about how the animals were selected for each year and as this year is the year of the snake, we made our own snake puppets. This was lots of fun!
In Numeracy we have been learning about length, comparing the length of different objects and using the correct words to describe them. Using paper chains, we made snakes with our partners. Then we compared the length of our snakes with the children at our tables. Those with the longest snakes then came to the carpet where we decided who had the longest snake in the class!
We all enjoyed drawing shapes with chalk and shading different fractions. We were lucky to get outside before the rain came!
We walked to the shop to visit the post office. Jennifer and Jacqueline kindly showed us the sacks the postman puts the parcels and letters into. We got to use the stamp with today’s date and we posted three letters of our own. These letters needed weighed, measured and stamped before they were placed into the sack for collection. The letters were too big for the postbox outside! On the postbox it said the post would be collected at 4pm, on our way down to the shop we met the postman delivering the mail sacks to the shop. What a fun morning we had! Thank you so much to our local shop, Spar for having us!
