A busy week in P1!

P1 have had another busy week!  

We have learned 2 more sounds this week, ‘z’ and ‘v’ and we have been practising hard learning the Jolly Phonics songs and actions that go along with our sounds.  

the 'z' sound
the 'v' sound
The action for 'v'. Can you tell we're driving vans?

We have also been searching for sounds and numbers hidden in the sand tray and we have been recording what we find onto a grid. 

look how many sounds and numbers we found!

We have also been very clever and used our knowledge of sounds to make words! How smart are we?  

 

In our number work this week we have been learning to count on 2 more using cubes and we have been writing what we learned in our thinking books. Counting Ted has also been helping us to remember the number after and the number before on the number washing line. 

 

Counting Ted is helping us!

We are still working hard on looking for patterns with Pattern Ted and making our own patterns.  

We have also been learning that in Autumn, food starts to become scarce for the birds and we made our own bird feeders using fir cones, peanut butter and bird seed. Birds won’t go hungry in our gardens.  

We are practising hard with the P2’s and the P3’s for our Christmas production of “The Grumpy Sheep.” I’m sure you’re hearing the songs at home! We had a competition to draw a design for the stage back drop. Keep your fingers crossed it’s someone in P1 who wins!
