We have had such a busy week here in Primary One.  In literacy we were learning the ‘j’ and ‘v’ sounds. We played in jelly,  built volcanoes, designed a village and pretended to be vets.  It was so much fun.  The new sounds are in the book bags for you to practise at home.

 

For our writing this week we made delicious jam sandwiches and we then wrote a set of instructions.  We even took our crusts out to feed the birds so there was no waste.

In maths we have been working on Subtraction within ten and have been learning to use a number line to help us work out the calculations.

Finally, we started our new topic on Lunar New Year today and we watched a video clip of two children explaining how they celebrate this wonderful festival.  The children in the video cleaned the whole house and then decorated it with beautiful red banners.  This inspired us to do the same with our house corner and we even made some of our own lovely banners which we will display next week.
