In literacy, we have been learning the ‘d’ and ‘e’ sound.  We played with dinosaurs, drew doodles, played games with dice and made d’s with dough.  We posted letters in envelopes, explored the earth and had to dress up in costumes to attend emergencies.

In numeracy, we challenged ourselves to count to 200! We also learned about the numbers before/after and higher/lower.

We had a fantastic literacy open morning.

“The mums and dads were playing with us.  My favourite thing was playing with the playdough.” Coila

“My dad was reading a book to me when he was there and he made two words with me at the playdough.” Mirryn

“My mum played with me at the computers and also played with me at the playdough.” Claye

“My mum played with me at the laptops” Allie

“The first thing I showed my mum was the laptops then the playdough.  I liked when my mum came in.”  Miller

“I showed mum my drawing and I went to the laptops with my brother and my brother played on the laptops with me”  Brie

“My mum made me happy because she played with me at the playdough” Elliott

“Mrs Watt read me a book”  Riia

This week we have also been learning about how to save energy at school and at home. We made ‘switch me off’ signs to put in every room in the school to remind people to turn the lights off when they leave. Great job!

Primary 1 visited the school library for the first time. Thank you to our P7 helpers who showed us how the library system worked. Everyone has a book they should keep at home for the week as they will need it for their homework. Please return the books in the book bag provided next Friday. Enjoy reading these together.

We all looked great for our dress down day for Children In Need and we even had our very own Pudsey bear.
