We made predictions about how many cups of water it would take to fill different objects. We then measured accurately to check the actual capacity of the objects.

In P1, we linked science with World of Work Week and discussed a variety of jobs that involve science.
Here are some of the jobs that the class discussed:
We created questions we wanted to answer about bees  including what can we do to help bees? Where do bees live?
We used cheesy crisps and paper bags in an experiment to show how bees fly from flower to flower and transfer pollen.
We also made seed bombs full of bee and butterfly friendly seeds. Â The children followed instructions to mix compost, flour, seeds and water to make the seed bomb mixture. Â Our seed bombs are currently drying in the classroom and then they will be send home with the children.
We continue to be inspired by Claude Monet and we worked as a class to produce a piece of artwork.
We discussed what we could see in his pieces, what colours and what technique he had used.
This is our finished result. It’s pretty spectacular!
We have been learning about Claude Monet and we created our own art inspired by his work, Water Lilies.
What a lot of budding artists we have in Primary 1.
We were exploring measure in the classroom today using pipe cleaners, ribbons and sticks. Â We practised using the language – long, short, longer, shorter, longest and shortest when comparing the lengths of things.
We created symmetrical patterns and pictures with numicon today.
Today we have been learning about symmetry and we  had fun painting symmetrical pom pom hats.
We used the beebots and Lego people to find different Christmas objects. P1 created beebot mazes as well. Super use of directions!
We learnt about directions and have been practising our left and right.  Mrs Conetta’s top teacher tip was to hold out our hands in front of us, keep all fingers straight and stick out thumb out to the side and see which hand makes a capital L. This is our left hand!
We directed our friends around a grid using the directions – forwards, backwards, left and right.
