Good afternoon!

I hope you are enjoying this beautiful weather. It’s so good to see the sunshine at last. We have had another fun week in Primary 1. We wrote stories about Goldilocks which were super. We were learning all about ‘ee’ and were able to look through our story books to find words with ‘ee’ in them. We made sheep for our new Spring display .

       

We have been working hard learning all about subtraction and addition and this week we explored symmetry too. The children brought some symmetrical items from home and were able to explain what made them symmetrical. We looked around the room for symmetrical things too and played fun games on the whiteboard.

            

Our favourite activity this week was ‘gym time’. We used some of the large apparatus and had fun  jumping, balancing, climbing, sliding and crawling.

        

Next week our new sound is ‘sh’ and we are still working hard learning our common words. When you are looking at the common words card at home ask your child if he or she can put each word in a sentence. We will continue with addition and subtraction using lots of games and equipment. In the afternooon we will plant seeds and learn all about how plants grow.

We will pop outside for some outdoor learning too, which I am sure the children will love.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend
