• Room 1 – 2 Week Round Up!

  Hello everyone, Sorry for the late blog post, I will do a double week round up! Last week we had a great day celebrating World Book Day, every pupil confidently shared their favourite book and explained to the class why they chose it 📚 we made paper dolls just like the Julia Donaldson book and we created a deck for our own 100 decker bus inspired by the book. We also were given picture clues and had to match them to the correct book, we were excellent detectives 🕵🏻‍♀️ We have now learnt every sound in the alphabet and we …

• Room 24 – St Mungo Museum Trip

  

  On Thursday this week we went to St Mungo Museum for our class trip. We started the day off with a scavenger hunt around the museum where we had to find statues and objects from small picture clues we were given. After that, we went to see inside Glasgow Cathedral and search for the stained glass windows that had animals on them. We got to go down into the crypt and see where St Mungo is buried too! In the afternoon, we took part in a WW2 workshop back at St Mungo’s museum. We learned about real Jewish people who …

• Room 11 preparations for Mother’s Day

  We have been very busy learning all about sustainability and how to reduce our plastic waste.  On Wednesday we learned that many household items that we weren’t expecting contained plastic and also how difficult it can be to recycle.  We are hoping to create some art next week with our plastic rubbish. We had a week of consolidation with our spelling, as some of us found the ‘ie’ sound and the ‘f’ family difficult.  We are also getting to grips with fractions.  Fractions of a shape and of an amount. In preparation for Mother’s Day we made some paper flowers.  …
