Sleeping Beauty

  Hi everyone!

We have had a very busy week. Here is what we have been learning.

We have been learning new sounds p, i, and n. And we are beginning to see if we can blend these sounds together to make words. We are continuing to write on our sound sheets and send them home.

We have been learning about our Oxford Reading Tree characters that will be in our story books. We have heard stories about Kipper and Biff and Chip.

We have been listening to lots of Sleeping Beauty stories and have lots of different areas of learning which will help us learn about Sleeping Beauty. After we listened to all the stories we voted using Active Expressions. We had to think about which one was our favourtie.

    

We also have been listening to stories about princess too. We have a castle, puppets and Sleeping Beauty’s Bedroom in Mrs Munro’s Learning Zone and have been making crowns in the classroom.

   

We have also been watching a DVD about Sleeping Beauty made with shadow puppets. We were amazed with it and are going to vote about whether we like the book or the DVD the best. We have a big floor book and will start to put all the things we are learning about Sleeping Beauty into it.

   

In maths we have been counting, learning numbers and sorting. We used maths boxes. We used the frogs maths box and sang five speckled frogs and we used the Bad Tempered Ladybird box. We listened to the story and counted the ladybirds with spots.

   

We used the Promethean Board to sort bears and sorted buttons and other things into sets too.

A New Primary One

Welcome to all our new Primary One pupils!

You first week at Dens Road has been very busy and we cannot believe how quickly you have all settled. Let’s see what we have been learning about….

We were introduced to Walt and Wilf this week. Walt is the teacher’s friend and tells what to teach us. Wilf tells us what to do to succeed. They are both there to help us learn.

We have been learning new Jolly Phonics sounds s, a and t. We have been trying to write those sounds and think of words that begin with them. We have been using the promethean board to practise writing them too.

Our number work this week has been practising writing numbers and drawing how many. We are very good and lots of us can count and write lots of numbers. We will be counting how many days at school. We have been at school 3 days to far.

We have been learning about the rules in school and about trying very hard to be green. We have a wall with our names on it. If we follow all the school rules we stay on green and get special treats. We also have sticker charts too and get a special prize when we complete our sticker chart. We love getting stickers for our charts!

We will be learning about Sleeping Beauty and have started reading different stories about her. We will be doing lots of activities about Sleeping Beauty.
