This week we have been learning more Scots words with Mrs Simpson. We learned the songs  Head, Shoulders,  Knees and Toes and the Hokey Cokey in Scots.

We also made our pictures for the art competition. We used paint and collage to illustrate our poem My Wee Rid Motor.

In numeracy we have been learning our number stories to 5.

This week was also the first week of our new My Time activities and we signed up to either Role Play/Dressing Up, Movie Club, Construction or Board Games.

If anyone has any spare/unused children’s coat hangers could please send them into Primary One. Thank you.

Primary One have had a very busy first week back. This week we enjoyed listening to The Cat in the Hat by Dr Seuss. We made our own rhyming hats and we made rhyming books.

We have also had fun learning the words for the poem My Wee Rid Motor and the song Coulter’s Candy. We are learning these for the Scottish Afternoon as part of the Burns celebrations and for the Burns competitions. Mrs Simpson taught us some Scots words for Birds and Beasties.

We have also been learning some ceilidh dances in PE and this week our P7 buddies came and showed us one of the dances they had learned for their Christmas Ceilidh.
