This week in Primary 1A we have been working on our listening and talking skills. In Circle Time, I was very impressed with the way all of the children shared their ideas and listened carefully to what their classmates had to say.

We have all been writing Helicopter Stories and acting them out with out friends.

And we have been further developing our phonological awareness and early literacy skills.

We have been developing our Fine and Gross Motor Skills.

After lots of deliberation and debate, the children have selected Minibeasts as their first topic. We spent time outdoors looking for creatures and very carefully catching them so that we could get a closer look at them through the magnifying glasses. Mr Weir showed us some great bug hiding places.

Even in the classroom we discovered a huge moth that had flown inside so that we could have a look at him too!

 

 

 

 

 

Everyone who passes through our classroom comments on how fabulous the creations in the construction area are.

The children have all settled in so well and it is lovely to see their friendships developing as they play.

Finally, these wee super sleuths were undercover in the library, it looked like they were sharing a book, until you looked closer and noticed the binoculars!

 

I hope you have a great weekend and look forward to another great week of learning.
