27.10.26 Hallowe’en activities 
This afternoon we were involved in different Hallowe’en activities.
We were problem solving as we made towers to hold small pumpkins. We had to try different ways to use the cups and lollipop sticks to hold the pumpkins.
Take a look at our towers.
We also had a go at creating bubbles using bubble painting. We mixed paint and fairy liquid to create the bubbles. The witches spell is bubbling over the cauldron!
Then we created our own spells in a witch’s cauldron. Take a look at our spells and what we put in them.
26.10.26 Literacy – consolidation week – focus c & k
This week in literacy we are consolidating the phonemes – c, k, r, d, m & e. Today we were focussing on c and k. We were spelling at the teaching table using c & k.
We had to say the word, break it up into the different sounds, make the word with the letters, read the word and finally write the word.
Some of the pupil even completed a chilli challenge and were able to spell a 4 letter word starting with c or k!
We also focussed on our letter formation using the playdoh.
As a class, we identified that castle begins with the phoneme c so we made castles. Some of us made them together. Take a look!

Dumfries House Farm Trip – 29.9.26
Yesterday we went to Valentin Farm at Dumfries House to learn more about the farm animals. We got to hold a freshly laid egg, feed and stroke the pigs. We also got up close to rare breed cows and touch their growing horns.
When we were in with the chickens and ducks we looked closely at their feet to see how different they were, allowing the chickens to grip the ground and the ducks to swim.
Then we did something really fun! Can you guess what it was? We all got to milk Rosie the cow!
We go to PE on a Monday and a Friday. Please ensure your child has shorts and trainers/gym shoes that they can independently put on, in their school bag. Could all jewellery please be removed and long hair tied back. Thank you.
Welcome to P1H blog. Each week we will be posting some of the amazing learning that we have been taking place in our classroom.
