In the coming weeks we are going to begin our Christmas jars to go on sale at the Christmas Fayre. Please donate any unwanted glass jars you have (with the lid). When dropping children off please send these in with them to be handed straight to either Mrs Stephenson or Mrs O’Donnell (to ensure none are left in bags). We are needing 24 in total.
Thank you,
Mrs Stephenson ☺️
During our ICT time we have been working on logging in and improving our mouse control skills. Today almost all of us managed to successfully log in without teacher support 😁 💃🏼
We were called for our flu vaccinations at 9.30 this morning. Everyone was very brave ☺️ The boys and girls are very pleased that we still made it to P.E 👍 Your child will have a note in their homework folder confirming whether they have received the flu vaccination or not. If a child did not have written consent they will not have been vaccinated today.
The children were all very keen to discuss the recent fire at Mearns Primary. We took the opportunity this afternoon to explore fire safety and decided to write a letter of thanks to the fire service. This letter has been sent for the attention of Clarkston fire station. As you will be aware, the fire service arrived within minutes of the fire being reported and as a result our classroom was left unharmed. We are very thankful for the work that they do.
We also met two nurses who came to our class and spoke to us about CPR. They showed us how to help someone when they’re not breathing. We practised this on our teddy bears. We pressed our teddies chest to the tune of “Baby Shark.”
This week has been Health Week in school. 1.4 had a visit from a doctor , who spoke about his job in a hospital. The children told him about some of their trips to hospital too. We then got to listen through a stethoscope , try on a mask and put bandages on each other. Thanks so much to the doctor ( the dad of a P.1 child) for popping in to see us.
We had a great time outside today writing numbers, counting objects, ordering numbers and making patterns. We were very glad the rain stayed off for us too!
The class chose something they would like to learn about. After some discussion, they chose ‘aeroplanes ‘. In Art we made planes of various sizes and colours. We took them outside and flew them. It was very exciting and we had great fun. In our next lesson we’ll measure , in steps, how far each plane flew. We’ll then make a graph to show our results.
Today we had a leadership assembly. Boys and girls from our class and across the school have been chosen or volunteered to be part of a school group.
Today we were practising both our number and letter formation. We are continuing to focus on correctly forming numbers to 10 (although we are now exploring numbers to 20) and today our sound was ‘g’.
