It’s beginning to look a lot like… EASTER!

Easter is approaching and you may be able to tell in our classroom!

We have created our Home Corner into an Easter Home! We have made signs, posters and Easter Masks! We are also learning about the importance of Easter too.

We have been learning about warm and cool colours! Using this knowledge, we discussed Spring colours and plants too! We drew a rabbit in detail discussing shapes and painted flowers.

Our love for Painting has grown so much that we have developed a designated painting area against the window!

In Literacy, we continue to explore sounds and practise our blending skills to read tricky words.

We have been learning about Speech Bubbles and their purpose!

We are becoming super confident at recognising phonemes and using our knowledge of these sounds to create words.

In the library, we enjoy reading non-fiction books with our friends!

We have been practising our reading skills! We use our book to help us answer questions.

In Writing, we have been exploring how to use openers whilst remembering to use punctuation!

We are securing our knowledge of number bonds up to 10. We have been using Numicon to add and subtract amounts, to practise our subitising skills or to make number bonds.

We are learning how to solve the missing number in a calculation!

Although we are super confident at using a number line to solve calculations, we are practising to use our mental maths skills!

WOODLAND!

We love exploring the woodland area!

We have noticed changes in the Woodland area since Winter!

We notice plants beginning to grow, the leaves are appearing too!

We were reinforcing our learning for Forces – push and pull!

We were using our imagination to create stories and we made apple cake!

Parent’s Evening was incredibly positive! I hope you are all proud of your superstars for working so hard in Primary One. I know they will continue to make you proud just as much as they make me proud!

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!xxx
