Look who came to visit us this week! After a huge amount of debate and finally a vote, we named our Class Elf Elfie! He’s already been up to mischief. I wonder what he’ll do next week?

Our new phonics sounds this week were sh, ch and th and we had a special visit during one of our Literacy lessons from Ms Rodriguez who is  our QIO responsible for early years. She was so impressed with our classroom environment and how well the children manage their own learning. Everyone was so excited to show her around and tell her about everything we have been learning in P1 so far.

In Maths we have been learning the words for numbers.

In PE this week, we were working on our racket skills. We started balancing bean bags on rackets, but were quickly able to move onto tennis balls, we could bounce and catch them on the rackets and even pass them to our classmates.

Here are some more pictures of the amazing learning in class this week!

And finally I leave you with this picture – it made me smile and as Mrs Slorach said at the time, this just shows  how keen the children are to get into class and start learning!
