Primary 1/1 have had a busy month! The class have continued to enjoy Muddy Movers and have been working on balancing, team-work and communication skills.

We have been enjoying listening to stories and discussing our likes and dislikes as well as beginning to sequence stories with and without picture cards📖.

Primary 1 are working hard to learn tricky words and have loved our roll and write/make station🎲.

The class enjoyed learning about Guy Fawkes Night and were able to identify different ways we could be safe on Fireworks Night🪄🎆. We wrote our tricky words in glitter✨.

We were lucky to be working with Miss Cherry during November and the class enjoyed learning about water during a mini-topic. This involved stories, water exploration and play💧. We also experimented with different water states, including ice, to rescue treasure🧊💎!

The class enjoyed taking part in activities during our Children in Need charity day, including some gym hall activities run by our Primary 7s and a toy and book sale🐻.

Primary 1 have been working hard in Maths and have learned about symmetry. They have enjoyed making symmetry pizzas🍕.

We have been learning our number bonds and loving exploring these through play✨.

The class expressed an interest in learning about maps. We made links with French, Maths and Social Studies when exploring this. They enjoyed looking at different types of maps in the class atlas and using the globe to find Scotland and France. We explored directions using maps outside and with the Blue Bots and mats in class🕹.

We have been developing our peeling and slicing skills. The class worked very safely when working with knives to chop fruit and peeled using their hands and a peeler tool. We made fruit salads🍎🍊🍌 and Scotch broth soup for St. Andrew’s Day🍲🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿.
