Thank you to all the parents/carers who came to join our Health Open Morning. We played fruit bingo, working out how many teaspoonfuls of sugar are in some foods and used the laptops to make a healthy lunch box.
Health Week – Drum roll please…Circus skills!
P1 loved their session working with their P7 buddies on a range of circus skills.
Health Week – Yoga
What a lovely way to start a Monday morning with a yoga session with one of our parent volunteers.
Technology
What a fun afternoon in P1! Having learnt about Abu from Kenya, who makes his own car/truck toy using milk bottles and shoe boxes, we decided to make our own. These will also be our entries for the Gala Day Art Competition which had a recycling theme.
After all this hard work, this pupil transferred his skills into our construction area where he made a tractor with a trailer.
Forces Poster using PicCollage
We have been learning about different forces – push, pull and twist.
P1 has to use the camera on the iPads to take photos of these forces in the classroom.
We then used the app, PicCollage to display the photos with captions.
Fruit Smoothies gone digital!
P1 used Immersive Reader on Word today on the iPads to listen to and follow the recipe to make fruit smoothies.
We have been learning about the importance of a healthy, balanced diet and designed our own smoothies. – Strawberry and raspberry and Orange and pineapple…delicious!
Sharing our writing
P1 love sharing their own writing with the class. Today we wrote a sense poem about what Handa might see, feel, taste, hear and smell.
P1-3 Glow Masterclass
Our P1-3 Glow Masterclass are becoming tech geniuses by logging onto Glow and starting making a Sway to show their highlights of their school year.
Numicon
Primary 1 loved using numicon to help show them how to make amounts to 10p.
Our Senses
This week we have been exploring our senses.
We enjoyed feeling and smelling our ‘mint’ and ‘cocoa’ playdough. Good enough to eat, but we all resisted!
We used our eyes to look for this week’s common words in books from the library.
We got to taste a range of fruits from the story Handa’s Surprise and talked about words to describe the taste.
