Sounds, Shapes and Bugs

Leave a comment

Welcome to the end of week three for our P1’s. It’s been a busy week with parents joining us for a school lunch. And it was Elaine the Cook made yummy spaghetti bolognese!

Our latest Jolly Phonics sounds are c, k and e. We have been looking for things beginning with these sounds and playing memory games to test our brains.

In maths we have been sorting. We can sort things by colour and size and put them into groups. We have also been making patterns with beads and peg boards. Try asking us about shapes because we have learning about triangles, circles, squares and rectangles.

Look out for our entry at the Dundee Flower & Food Festival at Camperdown Park as we have put in a P1 entry. We had great fun with our first art lesson and made bees, ladybirds, caterpillars and butterflies.

Full time on Monday. Looking forward to being in school from 9am till 3.15pm.

Here you can keep up to date with regular updates of the learning taking place in our classrooms. We’ll keep you posted with activities that the children have enjoyed, photos of displays and daily life in our classroom.

In our first week we have been learning our Jolly Phonics sounds s, a, t, i, p and n. We have practised writing them on our magic whiteboards, Nintendo DS’ and our class Promethean board. We have been making letters with play dough and thinking of words that begin with these sounds.
