To finish our Guy Fawkes celebrations, we had great fun creating and painting these fantastic salt fireworks 🎆🎆.
As part of our new topic; celebrations, we have been learning about Guy Fawkes. Today we had a bonfire themed “Attention Autism” session💥🔥, followed by making yummy chocolate apples 🍫🍎. Our favourite part was getting to lick our spoons clean 😋.
This week in P4/5 we have started our new numeracy topic; shape and space! We have been working hard to identify and sort 2D shapes 🟥🔺🔴
Today we were learning about Guy Fawkes 💥 We had great fun being rockets and got messy making gunpowder explosions 💥☄️
Look how good we are at lining up 🚶🏼🚶🏻🚶🏻🚶🏻🚶🏻🚶🏼♀️👍🏼
Halloween Party day in P4/5 😊. There was lots of eating yummy treats, dancing and party games 🎃👻🥳 Sorry if some of the images are a little blurry, everyone was too busy throwing shapes on the dance floor to stop and pose for a pic 😊💃🏼🕺🏻
Today in P4/5 we had the best day to end this half term! As our sound focus this week has been the “p” sound, we made pizzas, popcorn and pumpkin slime 🍕😋🍿🎃
To finish our handling data numeracy topic, we worked hard to sort and create these Halloween bar graphs 🎃👻
We had so much fun in art today 🎨. We created fantastic, colourful firework pictures 💥🌟 and used leaves we had collected earlier in the week to do some autumn leaf prints 🍁🍂🌿
We are so good at our sound work 😊🤩
This week in PDMU we were focusing on matching our feelings and emotions to our facial expressions. We also played a game to see how well we could read other people’s expressions 😊🙃
Happy Birthday to Miss Macey 🎂🎉❤️🥳. Lots of love from all of your friends in P4/5 😊🥰 xx
Halloween art has started in P4/5 🎃👻. Today we used pegs and cotton wool to make cool bat prints 🦇. We then used our foot prints to create scary ghosts 👻👻. Although Miss McNeilly ended up with more paint on her than our ghosts 😂🙈.
A super fun P.E lesson with Mrs Curry 🏃🏻♂️🧍🏼♀️
Happy Birthday Zak 🥳🎂🎉 lots of love from all of your friends in P4/5 ❤️
Travis is doing a great job signing our “sign of the week”, which is “help”! Well done Travis 👍🏼
A super phonics lesson😊. We can now recognise and sound out the “t”, “a” and “s” sounds! We are especially good at the “a” sound 😊🌟💫
Now taking bookings for the Killard House Hair salon 💇🏻♀️💇🏼♂️ Our stylists have been working so hard on their scissor skills ✂️😉😂
Yesterday during numeracy topic work we collected data to find out which fruit we all like to eat🍏🍎🍐🍊🍇🍌. Today we used this information to make our own pictograms.
A lovely sensory based afternoon in P4/5 😊. We played in the water tray, sand tray, pasta tray and even had time to make some edible marshmallow slime 🦄
Today for our movement break we enjoyed playing in soft play and completing the circuits course 😊.
As part of our “all about me” topic work, we have been working so hard learning all about our senses. Today we had great fun testing them! We had to listen to sound clips and match them to the correct pictures, smell mystery smells, use our hands to find out what was inside the magic feely box AND eat crisps to test our taste buds! Not sure who enjoyed that part more, the adults in P4/5, or the pupils 🤔😂👁🖐🏼👂🏼👃🏼👄
Lots of hard work going on during numeracy topic work today! We were learning about pictograms. We started by playing some fun games on the interactive whiteboard and then used mirrors to check our eye colour. We then used this information to make our very own pictogram showing the different eye colours in P4/5 👁🤩😊
Good morning Miss McNeilly 👩🏼🏫 😊....... that desk is looking a bit messy, you better get it tidied up! 😂
🎼 “Lean on me, when you’re not strong and I’ll be your friend, I’ll help you carry on” 🎼
Continuing with our “All About Me” topic, we have been learning about our senses. Today we were matching pictures to the correct sense 👃🏼👂🏼👁👄🖐🏼
A quick movement break after lunch to get us ready for getting back to work. We were working on our communication and co ordination skills. So much fun ⚽️👐🏼🤗
We worked so hard in numeracy today. We were counting, ordering and recognising our numbers 👍🏼👏🏼😊
Last week we visited the Killard green house to plant some seeds. Just 1 week on and look at how much our grass heads have grown! I think some of them may need a trim soon 😂. Luckily I know 6 people who are going to be working on their scissor skills this week.... 🤔💇🏼♂️💇🏻♀️✂️
For this weeks art lesson, we used a combination of blowing our paint using straws and dabbing it using cotton buds, to create these beautiful autumn paintings 🙌🏼😊🍂🍁🍃🎨
Here is our lovely James doing a wonderful job of demonstrating this weeks sign, which can be used for both “please” and “thank you”. Well done James 😊👍🏼
This week we started our numeracy topic “handling data”. We worked so hard to recognise our colours (which we are amazing at 🎨) before using a Venn diagram to sort objects and pictures by colour, first during circle time, then independently! Just look at all our fantastic work! The grown ups in our class are so proud of us they could almost burst 😃😍 We are such superstars 🤩✨👏🏼
As part of our world around us topic “Autumn”, we had a lovely autumnal walk in a secret forest, just 5 minutes from Killard House School 🍁🍂🍃🌳
We love “Attention Autism” in P4/5 😁✨🤩🙌🏼
As part of our “All About Me” topic we have been learning all about our facial features and body parts! We had great fun making our very own Mr Potato Heads (and searching for his missing body parts in the sensory tray 😱🥔👁👀👃🏼👂🏼😂).
This week we have been learning all about the letter “a” and the sound it makes! We have been matching pictures, practising writing the letter “a”, searching for the missing “a” in the sand box and sorting capital and lower case “a’s”! Wow, we never stop in P4/5 🤩😁

We had so much fun exploring our WAU topic ‘Autumn’. First we watched a ‘sounds and sights of autumn’ video, then we went for a walk around the school grounds to collect autumn leaves. We then matched our leaves to colour visuals. After all of this hard work, we were ready to paint our autumn trees 😊🍁🍃🍂🎨

A super fun music session with Mr Scates 😊 We listened to a song about the rain, then made our own rain sounds using the instruments! Just look at how focused we all are 😁☔️💧
P4/5 working hard on our counting, number recognition and number formation!
