P2 Term 2

P2 Party 

We had great fun at our P2 Party. We were fabulous at dancing the Holm School Jig with our partners. We raced round a large circle to play Santa, Santa, Reindeer. At Christmas Corners we showed our knowledge of French:

le pere Noel - Father Christmas

un renne - reindeer

un sapin de Noel - Christmas tree

un cadeau de Noel - Christmas present 

Stretchy Snowmen

We are so proud of our creative skills in designing Stretchy Snowmen. Challenge - can you transfer these skills to design a Stretchy Santa Claus?

 Joyeux Noel a tous.

       Merry Christmas everyone.

Festive Friday 

Look at our wonderful Festive Friday jumpers. We are all getting excited about Santa and Rudolph visiting us soon on Christmas Eve.                           Do you know all the reindeer names?

We are so proud of our problem solving skills.

We used our skills to solve this jigsaw puzzle called British Isles. It has 120 pieces.   Wow!!

Money 

We are developing our awareness of how money is used and have been playing games to help us to recognise and use a range of coins to the vaue of £2.

We have been applying mental addition and subtraction skills to work out the exact value for items and exploring different ways of making the same total.

Next we will be learning to record amounts accurately in different ways, for example:

          5p = £0.05        105p = £1.05

We will be asking Mums and Dads to let us handle real coins and to set up mini shops so that we can practise giving change.

Thank you to our wonderful P6 Playground Buddies who organised fun games for P2 to play in the Honey Bear Garden.

We practised many literacy skills including:

•  listening 

• following instructions

• talking 

• feed back to Buddies

Halloween comes to P2 at Holm.  Look at our amazing costumes and pumpkin lanterns.
