To celebrate International Lego Day we took part in a range of activities connected to Lego.  Our writing was to design and describe a Lego character.  We also had Lego challenges and worked through design problems.  We used Lego bricks to help us with our counting or subtraction sums.  SLC1a had lots of fun and watched a little bit of the Lego Movie while we worked on our Lego models in the afternoon.  To see some of our photos click the link below.

In SLC1a we had lots of fun during our Touch of Tartan celebrations.  We have been enjoying learning new Scottish words through learning our Scots Poem and Song and also through taking part in a variety of literacy jobs linked to the well loved ‘Hairy Maclary’ books.  On Friday we enjoyed creating our own tartan, tasting traditional Scottish foods, taking part in Scottish dancing and listening to Scottish music.  Click the link below to see our photos.
