February has been a busy month with lots of new learning and exciting adventures. Here is a sneak peak into some of the things \u00a0Primary 1 have been up to.<\/p>\n

Reading in our new and improved library area. It\u2019s been a big hit, lots of reading and exploring books.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Practising our subtraction skills and the language of subtraction. Less than, the difference between, take away, minus, there are so many different ways to say subtraction.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Children had to make the correct number of play doh balls then smash them following the verbal calculation. Great job everyone, subtraction can be really tricky but you have mastered it!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Heart Start<\/p>\n

We were learning \u00a0how to call for help in the case of an emergency. Following our heart start programme everyone \u00a0practised calling 999 and had a go at checking for a response on a casualty. We have a class of very responsible Primary 1\u2019s.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When exploring volume the children investigated quantities that were full, empty, half full, nearly full and nearly empty. They ordered and estimated volumes in a variety of containers.<\/p>\n

Children have been developing their confidence in number stories to 10. With February the month for celebrating love and friendship we had some number story themed activities.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

Revising o\u2019clock and half past the hour, we can read and make the correct time using the small clocks.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\"\u00a0 It\u2019s fun to choose which medium to practise spelling with. We have been learning consonant blends this month.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Using the story world software is a fun way to develop our reading confidence. It also helps to practise mouse control.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/u><\/b>Muddy Movers<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n

We too muddy movers to the Quarry recently. It was an amazing adventure, walking through streams, listening to the waterfall and birds singing. We spotted tracks on the ground and investigated floating and sinking in the streams.<\/p>\n
