The Run Up To Christmas

What a busy term, P2 have had. We have been preparing for the Christmas Nativity, learning speaking parts and the lyrics to 8 songs. We worked with primary 1 and the other primary 2 classes to put on a fabulous show for our parents. The last performance was today and Miss Breslin was extremelly proud of us.

We all got to see the Baldy Bain panto. This was our end of term reward and we had so much fun booing the baddie and helping all the others. Miss Breslin was not surprised at how loudly we could shout!

We still have our Christmas party to look forward to, we can't wait to dance and see Santa.

In between all our rehearsals for the nativity, we have been doing our maths and language work. We have been looking at numbers to 100, area of shapes, rounding to the nearest 10 and odd and even numbers. We have been reading Six Dinner Sid and doing lots of writing about it, describing Sid and retelling the story. We made bar graphs and a venn diagram about Sid and his life. We enjoyed doing work about Six Dinner Sid.

We have also been learning about Martin Luther King and his dream for everybody to be treated fairly. We worked in our co-op groups to create posters showing what our dreams are for this.

We have had a fabulous term and are excited about Christmas. After Christmas, we are back in our Ard Road building. We can't wait to see how fantastic the school looks and exploring it!!
