Hello and welcome back to Longhaugh Primary 1’s blog!

Only 10 more sleeps until Chrismas Day!

We continued to look at the medial vowel this week. This week it was the turn of the vowels ‘e’, ‘i’, and ‘o’.

In number we were doing some symmetry work, Christmas themed, of course! Have a look at some of our symmetrical trees below.

  

Our P1 Christmas party is on Monday the 17th of December. No party is complete without a party hat. We made ours this week cutting out our own shape from the paper and decorating it with lots of jewels, feathers, gold paper etc. We think we’ll be very festive.

  

We also made place mats for our party. We coloured them in using our own choice of colours and our own design.

  

On Friday we had a very exciting Glow meet with Santa! Yes! Can you believe it? Santa! He visited Stonehouse Primary School in South Lanarkshire and lots of primary schools all over the country watched and listened to his visit. The boys and girls asked him some very interesting questions. We wondered if he already knew if we were on the naughty or nice list……

  

We also had a craft afternoon. Our parent/carers and adults that live with us came into school and we worked together with them on our craft activities. It was a great success!
