The children have had a great last week at school. We made paper plate snowmen, had great fun at our party and loved our cinema trip! Thank you for all your support over the last term too and we wish everyone a lovely holiday

This week we have been revisiting our sounds ‘g’ and ‘l’. We have also been making CVC words.
In numeracy, we have been learning how to use the Rekenreks to help us add numbers together.
Jessica helped make new playdough for the class and they loved making winter cookies.
We had a lovely walk on Tuesday wearing our Christmas and Winter hats.
P1 visited the school library again last Friday and have taken a book home, which I hope you have enjoyed reading together.
Please return all books by this Friday 13th December.
Thank you

Miller brought in his rugby medal to show us and told us all about his team at Cumnock Rugby Club.
Well done Miller!
As part of our Information Handling topic we have been learning how to complete Carroll Diagrams. We worked together on the board then completed some individually.
This week we have been learning the ‘g’ sound. We had great fun creating golden g’s, glitter glue pictures, drawing and building houses for Goldilocks.
In numeracy, we have been continuing to use a Numberline to help us add.
We also created paper snowflakes to add to our winter display. Doesn’t it look fantastic!

Last week Coila brought in her dancing medal to show us.
Coila told us all about her dancing show, her costumes and how she performed to a big audience.
Well done Coila!
This week’s homework task is story writing.
At the beginning of Primary 1 we have been focusing on adding details to our drawings in order to tell a story. We have focused on facial features (eyes, eyelashes, eyebrows, nose, mouth, chin) as well as ears, hair, neck and body. We then concentrated on what our arms and fingers would be doing then focused on our legs and feet.
Now that we are learning our sounds we are beginning to use these to make words and sentences focusing on letter formation, capital letters, finger spaces and full stops.
The homework task this week involves pupils drawing a detailed picture for the story, ‘I am building bricks’. Pupils should focus on all the details above as well as including their building blocks in the picture.
Some pupils may want to copy the sentence.
I look forward to seeing all the super drawings.
