P1 love using the ActivPanel to show their learning in Active Literacy. Today we were spelling ‘oa’, ‘wh’ and ‘-an’ words.
Dumfries House
Primary 1 had an amazing day at Dumfries House.
We learnt about what a plant needs to grow and planted our own broad beans.
We learnt about our senses in the garden and did a senses hunt in the garden. Then we made our own lavender bags.
Facial Expression PicCollage
Through PATHS and our topic, we have been learning about different feelings and talking about how we can show different feelings on our faces.
P1 took photos of each other and then made a PicCollage with labels to show the different feelings.
Monster Description
We have been reading the story, The Huge Bag of Worries.
We drew a worry monster and then have to describe it in our writing. After that, we had to read our description to a partner and they had to draw it to check that we had included enough detail.
African Assembly
Left and Right
We used the construction area to build mazes for the cars to travel around. We had to use the directions – forward, turn left and right.
Health Week – Daily Mile
P1 worked together to complete the challenge of running/walking a marathon. We managed all 26 miles over the week.
Health Week – Massage in the garden
We enjoyed a massage session out in the garden. We practised mindfulness too and used our senses and listened to sounds we could hear, things we could feel.
Health Week – Dentist Visit
Our parent volunteer talked to P1 and P2 all about the importance of tooth brushing.
Some pupils even got to do an experiment to see how well they can clean their teeth.
Health Week – Taekwondo
Thanks to our volunteers from Phoenix Taekwondo who took a session for us where we practised different punches and kicks.
We were lucky enough to see and hold some of the medals and trophies our volunteers have won…World Champs!
