First of all, Mrs Ferguson and I would like to thank everyone who attended our literacy morning on Wednesday.  We know how hard it is to fit these things in around work and other commitments and we really appreciate those who were able to attend.  We love having you in the school and the children love showing off their learning.  We are so lucky to have such supportive parents and it really helps to strengthen the link between school and home.  Here are just a few pictures as we were so busy chatting we forgot to take more!

Literacy Superstars

The children have been learning the ‘c’ and ‘k’ sounds this week and have had great fun doing activities relating to the sounds.  We made Cards for someone we Care about, we typed our words on the Keyboard, we made Cakes, and Cookies with the Cutters and decorated them with Candles, we made beautiful Crowns fit for a King.

Here is the song to practise the ‘c’ and ‘k’ sounds.

In maths we have started looking at addition and Oh, My Goodness, the children have been absolutely AMAZING! We looked at part-part-whole models and used them to create our own calculations.  The children have been practising using the addition and equals signs to create their calculations. Maybe you could practice this at home, especially with the magnets that came in the Book Bug P1 bags that were sent home.

The boys and girls looked fantastic in their casual clothes and Pudsey outfits today.  We had a lovely relaxing time doing some Pudsey mindfulness colouring in this afternoon.
