Some clips from the day🎥
Well done everyone!👏🏼
In May, we were learning all about People who Help Us. We worked together to come up with some questions to ask the Emergency Services🚨. The class loved hearing the answers from the Fire Service and Paramedic and even had the chance to look at and try on a real fire fighter’s helmet👩🏽🚒.
The class enjoyed P.E. outside and playing different ball games in groups⚽️.
May and June have been so busy and we have been working very hard! See the next post for Sports’ Day🏅!
March and April have been busy months in Primary 1 and the class have all been working hard🐝.
Before the Easter holidays we had a Fairytale themed topic. A special, secret visitor came to our classroom each week to leave us treasure chest clues for each Fairytale we learned about. Below are some pictures of when we learned about Three Little Pigs and tested out technology and design to decide which materials would work best to build a house🏠.
We also learned about The Gingerbread Man and experimented some more with different materials we could use to help him get across the water without being eaten by the fox🦊!
For Jack and the Beanstalk we planted our very own beans which are continuing to grow, the class are enjoying looking after these🌱.
In Maths we have been learning about doubles and number bonds, using some different ways to practice these🔢. We are starting to learn about time and measure🕒📏.
We have been working on our sounds and Tricky Words lots!
In French, we have read two bilingual books. Arc-en-ciel (The Rainbow Fish) and Les Couleurs d’Elmer (The Colours of Elmer). The class have loved exploring French colours with these stories. We enjoyed some celery printing art to give The Rainbow Fish scales and drawing rainbows with big chalk outside to practice French colour vocabulary🌈!
A cover letter has been issued within each of the grab bags explaining more about home learning and how this will work. Below is another list of what is included in our grab bag.
If you have a chance, please try to log onto our Google Classroom on Friday 8th January to ensure you can access this. All login details have been inserted into the cover letters for each individual child. If you scroll further down the blog you will find a guide to Google Classroom titled ‘Google Classroom’ that was posted by Miss Galloway.
Thank you,
Miss Payne 🙂
A big Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all in Primary 1🎄💫

As we can’t invite our special adults to see what we learn and how we learn in class, Primary 1/1 have created an interactive video of their classroom to share what a typical day in school looks like and sounds like.
The short video has hotspot (+ signs) that appear throughout the clip. Please click on these to see photos, videos and some information.
Learning in Primary 1 is a balance of child-led and adult-led learning and exploring.
We hope you enjoy the video,
Miss Payne
October has been a busy month for Primary 1💡! The class have had the chance to work with our Active Schools coach, Chris Rose, for some P.E. lessons. Everyone enjoyed taking part in the games on a Wednesday morning and are looking forward to working with Chris again!
Primary 1 have been working on their fine motor skills through engaging with Funky Fingers activities which they are having lots of fun with👍🏼.
We have been continuing to explore different things during Muddy Movers and in October we worked hard on balancing. The class worked in teams to create bridges on crates and over muddy puddles and tested their strength by completing the obstacle course.
The class have been enjoying our new construction bricks and building different things in the construction area🚧!
October was finished off with some Halloween fun where the class did a ghost writing tricky words task, played games, won prizes and had an afternoon of fun🎃🏅!
Here are some more active ways to work on Tricky Words at home!
This month, Primary 1 have been working very hard. We have had a focus on Literacy and Numeracy, the class have enjoyed learning their new sounds and engaging in number work.
In Maths we have been working on numbers to 20, 2D shapes and patterns. The class have enjoyed taking part in learning through play.
We have created patterns with big and small pegs, cubes, shapes and even toilet rolls!
The class are very proud of their work and are enjoying seeing it displayed on our walls.
The class have liked learning their sounds in a number of different ways. They especially like using cotton buds and paint to form their letters and our Hungry Hippos game to say their sounds to each other.
On Mondays we do Muddy Movers. This is a great chance for the class to explore the outdoors, work together and discover different creatures. Last week, we discovered a family of frogs living in the tires🐸!
This week was Maths Week and this is our winner for the homework challenge, well done!🌟
Some Reminders:
We are looking forward to seeing what October brings for Primary 1😀!
