Happy Easter break to everyone, I hope you all have a lovely and relaxing holiday and I look forward to seeing everyone in two weeks.

Miss Gordon

Today we said goodbye to Jacob as he is moving to another school. To say goodbye, Miss Gordon surprised Jacob and the rest of P1 with an ice cream party! Here they are having lots of fun eating their ice cream.

Good luck in your new school Jacob, we will miss you!

P1 spent the afternoon with the P6s creating cards for the special women in their lives. They had so much fun making them and they hope that each and every one of them has a lovely Mothering Sunday!

This afternoon we had a walk down to Menzieshill Library to return our books. We love our visits to the library and enjoy picking a book and spending time there. Today some of us read our books to our friends, well done!

This afternoon, Primary 1 spent time with their buddies and played bingo together. The Primary 1’s were great at recognising the numbers and many of them even managed to spot the numbers before their buddies!

Primary 1 had a lot of fun shouting out “Bingo”! Well done to everyone who managed to get a full house.

P1 have been using their knowledge of 2d shapes to help make different pictures. Miss Thompson was impressed with their shape knowledge and how well they could count the shapes they had used.

P1 have been learning about the differences and similarities between the night and day sky.

Miss Gordon asked the class to sort different pictures of what we see in the sky into day and night. There was lots of discussion around the pictures as some of them were a little hard to put into one category.

With the help of the pictures, we made our own day and night art! It was lots of fun and very messy.

P1 have been having fun exploring different 2d and 3D shapes and using them to create pictures of outer space. Each team worked incredibly well together and Miss Gordon was very impressed with our hard work!

We had a fantastic day at Sensation! We had a chance to explore the centre after we took part in our Space Workshop. We got to climb up the giant nose and come down the slide, we played in the medical level that allowed us to take part in different operations, we dressed up as astronauts/scientists and we even made music from light!! The man who did the Space workshop was very impressed with all our fantastic learning about Space, well done everyone!

In literacy this week we have been discussing our favourite books and reading some of them. We designed a book cover for our favourite books and wrote a little blurb, they look fantastic!
