Welcome to P1M!
What a super start to the year so far! It has been great to see the boys and girls settle so well into their new class. Some useful information:
Our Gym days this term will be Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Please ensure your child’s gym kit is clearly labelled and in a suitable bag. It would also help your child greatly if they do not wear a tie to school on gym days.
We will be taking learning outdoors in all weather. Please could your child bring a pair of clearly labelled welly boots to school which we will keep in the classroom. Can you ensure your child has a jacket with them every day and a hat, scarf and gloves in the colder weather. Thank you so much to everyone who has done this so far!
If your child has a letter for me please let them know it’s in their bag. If you have any concerns or questions regarding your child please contact me through the school office or catch me at 3 o’clock.
Regular photos will be uploaded to Twitter and Facebook shortly, we are just waiting on permission from all parents/ carers.
I am looking forward to an exciting year of play and learning in P1.

P4W have been busy!
P4W have started their final term before our summer holidays with a bang! We visited Stirling Castle to round off our previous Context for Learning on Castles, we had a great day! Check out some of our pictures below:
This term, our new Context for Learning is the Human Body! We had to work together as team to put together different clues to figure out what it could be. We then completed our plan and thought about what things we would like to learn. We decided we want to find out why we have a funny bone, how we laugh, how we breathe and lots more!
So far, we have had a look inside our bodies at all of our internal organs. Look at some of our pictures below when we pretended to be surgeons and put our classmates back together!:
In Numeracy this term, we’ll be focusing on measuring, angles, position and movement and our multiplication tables. In Literacy, we will be looking at different punctuation in our sentences and improving our WOW words in our imaginative stories. We’ll also be using our Context for Learning to write reports and instructions on how to keep ourselves fit and healthy. We will also be taking part in different STEM activities to do with the Human Body and learning some more French before the end of the school year.
As 2018 is the year of the World Cup, P4W have also decided to have a mini-Context for Learning about Russia 2018. We will have a country who are taking part in the World Cup this year to research and will take it in turns to report on the different games that have taken place. We’re sad that Scotland didn’t qualify this year!
P1M term 4 update!
Term 4
We have had a busy and exciting start to term 4 in P1M.
This term our learning context is Fairyland. The friendly dragon sent P1 a letter asking them to read and share more fairytales and to turn the classroom into Fairyland. So far P1 have heard about Jack and the Beanstalk. We have also looked at different parts of a castle and what their job is.
In Numeracy we have been learning about money. When you are at the shops the boys and girls in P1 could help to identify the coins you are using and as a challenge they could help to count out amounts up to 20p and beyond. We will also be learning to tell the time using o’clock and half past times. Each day try to point out an o’clock or half past time and discuss where the minute and hour hand are.
We have been to visit the Community Garden. Mr Martin told us all about the plants that grow in the garden and how to look after them. We have been learning about the different parts of a plant and their jobs in class.
The Abercromby Bake Off house challenge is taking place on the 4th of May. Pupils can enter by baking a minimum of 6 cupcakes, biscuits or a ‘Showstopper’ style cake. Each pupil who enters will receive 100 house points for their house team!
We will be heading to Glasgow Science Center for our School trip in May. We can’t wait! Sports day is also in May – what a busy month we have coming up!
We are rehearsing for our school show ‘The Bee Musical’ – look out for a letter about costumes. A yellow t-shirt should be handed in by the 18th of May. Please clearly label these with your child’s name.
What a busy term we have ahead! Lots of exciting learning experiences to look forward to!
