Teddy Bears Picnic
We brought our favourite special teddies to school! We talked about our teddies and why they are so special. We all wrote instructions how to look after our special teddy!
We also made fruit salad to have at our teddy bears picnic in the afternoon. We talked about healthy foods.We read the fruit salad recipe together to help us make it. We noticed the recipe used ‘bossy words’ like cut, chop, slice and words like ‘first’, ‘then’ ‘next’ to help order the instructions
At the picnic we enjoyed eating the fruit salad! It was delicious! We sang songs about teddies, listened to a teddy story and read stories to our teddies.
We then had a go at writing our own fruit salad recipes using ‘bossy words’ and sequencing words like ‘next’. We were very good at remembering to number the instructions and that instructions are not set out like a story.
International day
On 27 March we celebrated International Day with lots of fun activities and were very lucky to have lots of visitors.
Christopher’s mum taught us all some Scottish dancing!
Some children chose to wear National dress.
We learned about the culture, dress and food of many countries from our parent visitors! A huge thank you to the mummies who visited from all the boys and girls for making International Day such fun. We learned a lot by listening, taking part in activities and asking questions.
Ben, the French assistant from Eastwood High School, also visited us and we asked him lots of questions about living in France. He was very impressed with our knowledge of French words and phrases and he read us part of a simple French storybook. We enjoyed hearing his beautiful French accent as he read and we listened out for words we know.
Outdoor Play
We have a fantastic outdoor play area!
We are improving our skills and knowledge in many areas while having fun outdoors in the fresh air!
Well done Primary 1a!
