We had our Christmas party today and what fun it was. We ate our jelly that we made in class on Monday along with some ice-cream. We then enjoyed some treats before burning off all the extra energy with a game of musical statues. We also played pass the parcel before having a disco with the other P1 class in the assembly hall.

P1 had a fantastic Christmas trip to the Navan Centre in Armagh. We were entertained with a Christmas play, before enjoying a Christmas story and making a Christmas craft. The children were also thrilled to get a present from Santa.

We have been learning about Nocturnal Animals in World Around Us as part of our Light & Dark topic. We read the story Owl Babies and completed some lovely pieces of work on this, including some Owl Baby craft. We used pastels to create the grassy branches and then dipped a Pom Pom in the paint to create our fluffy owls. When this was dry we added orange feet with paint, some material, eyes, nose and star stickers.

Today we took our numeracy lesson outdoors for a carousel of number activities. We used natural materials to make our numbers, practised our number formation on chalk boards, made sets for numbers 1-6, played number ladders and beanbag toss.

This week we have enjoyed learning about nocturnal animals and making clay hedgehogs. We rolled, pinched and moulded our clay into a hedgehog shape before adding wooden matchstick spines and googly eyes. We then finished off our hedgehogs with brown paint and a sprinkle of glitter.

We have been looking at the book ‘Brown bear, Brown bear what do you see?’ within our literacy lessons this week. During our art lesson, we used forks to paint the fur on our brown bear and then printed ears, before adding facial features using a variety of materials.
