P1/2/3 took their learning outdoors today and what a beautiful day it was! 😀

Primary 2 and 3 have been investigating and exploring arrays to solve multiplication calculations while Primary 1 have been looking at subtraction and number sentences.

Take a look at our wonderful numeracy morning!

 

We will be celebrating Red Nose Day at Sorn Primary tomorrow. Take a look at the posters below to see what we will be getting up to!

What a super morning we had here in P1/2/3 😁 Lots of learning and thinking taking place whilst consolidating our spelling and phonics knowledge through bouncy blending and spelling splat games! Take a look at our active literacy in action 😍

Primary 1/2/3 have been working hard during numeracy time this week.

P1 have been revising subtraction where P2/3 have been exploring the 5 times table through array patterns and repeated addition.

We took our learning outdoors and created number lines for the 5 times table, counting in 2’s and up to 10.

Super work 😀

Primary 1/2/3’s phoneme and spelling words will be posted on the blog each week and should be practised at home. The words will be linked to the phoneme taught that week and common words which coincide. Children should use their alphabet letters or phoneme cards to practise spelling and build phoneme words. The attached picture below includes suggested activities to practise spelling of common words.

This week is consolidation week which means no new spelling or phoneme words are issued and children should practise and consolidate prior phoneme and spelling words.

We have had a super busy day in P1/2/3! 🥰

Through our class novel ‘Zog’ we discussed the main character’s  thoughts, feelings and appearance to create  a “Role in the wall”. Some super thinking going on and fantastic discussions 😁 From that we were able to create and write a few descriptive sentences all about Zog 🐲

We have also been super busy doing some different science activities for British science week 😍 We experimented with Miss Evans to create higher and lower sounds using water and different jars.

We have been learning all about The Solar System through our Space topic and so created our own! A great visual tool for remembering which planets are closer to the sun and which are further away.

Amazing work P1/2/3 you are just superstars 🌟

P1/2/3 have had lots of fun today celebrating World Book Day 📚😁 We all looked AMAZING in our costumes, from Harry Potter to the Cat in the Hat.

We brought in our favourite book and showed them to the class, sharing our favourite characters or part in the book 📚

We participated in a World book day “Scavenger hunt” and had some quiet reading time in our class library 😍

We loved listening to Angela Proctor speak about her books and answer some of our questions!!

A reminder that pupils in P1/2/3 can dress up as a book character tomorrow for World Book Day. They can also bring in a favourite book to share with the class 😁

The Sorn community book trail will be up all weekend for everyone to visit. Look out for the laminated QR codes along the way to hear short messages about our favourite books and childhood stories 📚
