Primary 1 Homework
New reading books will now be assigned every Monday on Rocket Phonics. Please continue to read at home, as much as possible. Children are making some great progress with their reading! If you are having problems accessing Rockets Phonics, then please speak to Miss Barrett.
All previous homework can be found down the page.
Homework is a way for the school to share what your child is covering in class. We are aware that families have many different activities and structures out with school and therefore it is not compulsory. This is why homework is set on a Monday until Friday to give families time to look at and explore it. The context of the homework is there as a guide but how you choose to explore it with your child is up to you.
Here are some ideas you might want to try for spelling(purple grid), fine motor control (blue grid) and numeracy 
Previous Homework
Due to the February weekend we are continuing our consolidation week. Please revise previously taught sounds through your children’s reading books. Please encourage blending of words in your child’s book and discuss the tricky word spelling rules.
New reading books went out today (Wednesday 29th) Please continue to read these at home, as much as possible. Children are making some great progress with their reading! If you have not received a new book, then we have not received your child’s previous book back at school. Please continue to ensure that all reading books, from the previous week, are returned in order for new books to be issued. Thanks!
In preparation for Scots Language Week (WB 20th January), P1 are learning a Scottish Poem. The poem we are learning in class is called “The Wee Rid Motor”. For homework this week, we are asking all learners to practice this at home with an adult. In the coming weeks, three pupils (chosen from each class) will be invited to perform at the Celebration of Scots Language assembly. P1B, lets get practising! A copy of the poem can be found here The-Wee-Rid-Motor
Additionally, P1 are learning the chorus and first verse of the Jeely Piece song. We have been doing an amazing job of this in class. Find below the verse and chorus we are learning and feel free to practise this at home too. P1 Jeely Piece song

Value of the Month Family Challenge – Respect
As our value this month is respect, we are spending time thinking about how to be respectful. In school, we have identified the following ways we can show respect and we are working hard on this.
- Being polite and kind to others
- Treating others the way you want to be treated
- Consider others’ feelings, wishes and rights
This month, we invite you to:
- Discuss with your family what things you can do to show respect at home and in your community. This might be making your bed, spending time with a family member or walking the dog.
- Carryout some things that show respect and fill the inside and outside of the house with pictures or words to show what you have achieved this month. You might need to ask an adult at home to help with this. Your teacher will give this out.
- You will be discussing how you have displayed respect in your home and community during week beginning Tuesday 26th September. We can’t wait to hear all about your experiences.
To support living by our values in school, at home and in our local community, we will be giving every family one of our values magnets to display in your home as a reminder.
