Jingles has made his appearance…..Primary 3/4 were visited with a fully decorated classroom and a note left from our visiting Elf this Christmas. He started the week being very kind decorating our classroom and bringing us a new Christmas novel to read together (he did cause a mess with our books though). He has started becoming very naughty. He took down the tree decorations so he could fit and has created a naughty and nice list.
Primary 3/4 enjoyed learning more about the Eatwell plate focussing on fruit and vegetables. We discussed what sort of foods are healthy and those that are unhealthy and were able to sort the pictures into the correct category. We also created our own healthy and unhealthy plates. Everyone enjoyed tasting the healthy foods brought in and many people tried something new.
“The pineapple was super sour” Caleb
