Day and Night

P2 and 3 were lucky enough to have a visit from Generation Science, who came to help them understand the difference between day and night and why there are different time zones.

They had great fun with Benny and Jack, and some were even lucky enough to hold the Sun!!!!!

Numbers!!!!

We have been working very hard on different aspects of numbers. We have been counting forwards, backwards, counting up to 100 in fives and tens and learning the numbers before and after. It has been a lot to remember!
To help us we have been using songs and games. Below you will find links to some of the songs and games we use.

Smiley Shark!!!

We have been reading the story of "Smiley Shark" in our friendship topic. It is about a smiley shark, who has no friends because all the fish are afraid of him. But when the other fish get caught in the fisherman's net it is Smiley Shark that saves them and they all become friends.

We were painting the characters  from the story for a wall display and making our own underwater characters as well.
