Look at us investigating number in a fun way. we have been learning about the 100 square and how it is full of interesting patterns. We spotted how all of the numbers in the columns share the same end digit. We practised our counting in 10s and tried to spot 10 more and 10 less as well as 1 more and one less. We guessed the hidden numbers and used the spinner to investigate 2 digit numbers in a range of ways. Some of use even spotted that the numbers with 2 digits the same make a big long diagonal line across the 100 square…. amazing work p1!!!

P1- Imaginative and inventive play
We love working together to create fabulous things in our learning and play. Here are a few examples of our imaginative creations this week- an enormous duplo model with so much detail and input from many different people to built their own ideas into a larger group design and some creative dens along with a camp fire to cook on and keep cosy!
P1- All things Measure
We have loved learning all about measure in our play and mathematics lessons this past week. We know all about length, weight and capacity and enjoyed trying lots of games and play activities to explore, develop, extend and share our learning.
Getting to know some of the new P1s
We have been sharing some of our learning and skills with the nursery boys and girls who are coming to Primary 1 after the summer. We have been telling them about some of the things we love about school! This week we had a joint play session and made the most of the lovely weather by getting outside into the garden. Next we are going to be showing them some of our favourite numeracy games with the numicon.
Super Scientists
Today we learned more about how a seed grows into a plant and what a plant needs to grow effectively. The 2 things are light from the sun and water. We have set up an experiment to test out our ideas. We have a seed with both light and water, another with just light, another with just water and another with none. We guessed what we thought might happen and can’t wait to see if we are right! We also checked on our sunflowers from last week….they have grown so much already. We passed them around to take a closer look at the roots and shoots developing. Finally we had fun planting our own mini- grass garden and teeny pots of grass which we are turning into crazy grass heads!
