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:

• For those who haven’t already done so, please note that wellington boots are required for a Monday along with a bag to keep these in for Muddy Movers.
• Tricky words are given out every Friday. Children are asked to please bring a tub to keep these in, separate from their homework bag, so that they can practice these throughout the week.

We are looking forward to seeing what October brings for Primary 1😀!

Primary 1 are settling well into our new classroom and are enjoying exploring their learning in different ways.

We discussed our rights in class and decided on how we and our teachers can uphold these rights. We also used these to create our classroom rules.

In class we read ‘Have you filled a bucket today?’ with Miss Payne and spoke about how we can be kind to others to fill their buckets. Primary 1 have been doing some excellent bucket filling, keep up the good work!

We created these nature inspired owl pictures with Mrs Berry

This week, we have learned the sounds ‘s’ and ‘a’ and have enjoyed learning the actions for these.

The class have started to learn French and are enjoying doing a miniature book study on Madeline. This week we painted some Madeline inspired hats!
