Our new topic for term 2 is ‘Toys’. This week we have been talking about our favourite toys. Our P1 boys and girls were given the opportunity to bring their favourite toy into school today. Firstly, we enjoyed a circle time, where each child had the opportunity to name and describe their favourite toy and tell the class why it was their favourite. Then we used our toys to complete a sorting task for different criteria, such as hard/soft, big/small, noisy/quiet. After break, we enjoyed completing an observational drawing of our toys. We also discussed how their choice of toys has changed as they have grown from a baby to a child, and why this might be.

Over the last few days we have been having lots of fun making food for our class Christmas party. We have made jelly in our World Around Us lesson, looking at how jelly dissolves in hot water. We have also enjoyed making melting snowman biscuits. This morning, we joined our other P1 friends in our assembly hall for a Christmas disco and ended up very tired after all of our dancing!! We are now really excited about our Christmas Fun Day tomorrow!
