Imaginative Writing

Our plans took a little change waiting for our P1 picture to be taken. Because of this, P1 enjoyed a surprise adventure instead! 🌙🚀 We watched Wallace and Gromit: A Grand Day Out and then designed our very own rockets. The children shared where their rocket would take them – from the moon to magical lands

 

Maths Week Scotland

P1B had lots of fun taking part in Maths Week Scotland.

We explored outdoors looking for shapes, children were able to draw they 2D shapes they recognised and name the 3D shapes they could find.

We also listened to the Rainbow Fish and discussed what 3D shapes made up the Rainbow Fish and then made our own mini fish using playdoh.

Finally we went on a number scavenger hunt while enjoying the sun (while it lasted).

 

Important: Kilmarnock Standard

Reminder P1 will be having a visit from the Kilmarnock Standard tomorrow 30th September!

Please be aware if you have not yet completed your photo permissions or have answered no to newspaper publications you child will not be in the newspaper photo.

If this is something you did want your child to be a part of, please don’t hesitate to catch me at the door or contact the school office before 09:00am.

 

MacMillan Coffee Morning

We would also be very grateful for any baking donations, either homemade or shop bought. Donations can still be handed in (tomorrow morning).  Please ensure any Tupperware/containers are labelled with your child’s name and class so that they can be safely returned after our coffee morning.

As we are a nut free school, please do not hand in any donations containing nuts. Children with an identified food allergy will be provided with a piece of baking from the catering team.

We very much look forward to seeing you. Thanks!

Happy Monday

Our new homework folders have arrived! 😀 However, 1 went walk about BUT has now thankfully been located.

This means our new homework folders will come home with your child Tuesday 16th September.

This includes

  • A workbook with suggested activities, you can additionally find more activities on the Home Learning section.
  • A homework jotter for children to complete any written homework, in a jotter with lines that reflect what they are using in class.

As homework is not compulsory jotters will not be monitored, but from experience, children take a lot of pride in their work and like to share this in school. So please send these in for me to see if this is the case!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Homework Update

Homework will be available every Monday, to access this please follow the Home Learning tab on our class blog.

We are hoping our homework folders arrive soon and when they do, jotters will be sent home with our Boost learning log ins, these will allow you to access your child’s reading book when they’re assigned. 

Our Families

In HWB we discussed family and how each family may look different but are all special. Once we had drawn our families we shared these with our peers and discussed who each person was.
