This week P1C were so excited as we had our milestone class photo taken. Pupils listened carefully to the photographers instructions and were keen to smile for the camera. We look forward to seeing the end result! When we were finished we got a photo in groups afterwords to mark the occasion.

Mrs Grieve here! Last week we enjoyed learning how to use a mouse in our technology lessons.  The Primary 7 digital leaders are helping us with this!

In French we have been learning some new classroom instructions! We can say and understand the French words for, “cut”, “glue”, “draw”  and “colour.” Why not ask us at home if we can remember any of the words!
Next, we learned how to read the French number words for numbers 1 to 5. We did a “coupez et collez” to show our learning.

Au revoir et passe un bon week-end!

What a great first week back we have had in P1. It has been great to get back into our class routines and take part in new learning. We enjoy taking on the challenge of our daily targets and leading our own learning across the classroom areas. We look forward to growing our brains as we learn new concepts and topics throughout the new term.

P1 had an excellant time at our Christmas party. We took part in party games, had a snack and had a special visit from Santa! He even brought us a special gift to take home. What a fantastic and magic afternoon. ☺️

Over December we had a very busy time preparing, practising and rehearsing for our class Nativity. The children loved learning their songs, lines and actions and it was evident on school day their hard work had paid off!  We were so proud of how well they were prepared and loved seeing them shine in their first nativity performance.

Back at the start of November we created fantastic firework pictures using oil pastels. We used various lines and colours to create the look of the firework in the sky. We also discussed the importance of safety during firework night and how we can keep ourselves and others safe.

In primary one we have been learning about the importance of why and how we brush our teeth. We were very lucky that nurse Claire came out to visit us and spoke about good dental habits.  We all listened very well and asked some excellent questions

.

Preparation for our upcoming nativity performance is underway. The children are working so hard to learn the songs, stage directions and lines for their parts. Today’s rehearsal involved all P1 classes meeting to practise our songs. It was fantastic to hear all the classes singing together and is clear we have a talented bunch at Crookfur! 🙂

On Monday we took a lovely walk to Mearns Library to celebrate Book Week Scotland.

The children listened to some very funny stories and were delighted to receive their Read Write Count bags which they proudly carried back to school.

A big thank you to our parent helpers for supporting us on the trip and to the team at Mearns Library for giving us such a warm and welcoming visit!

Primary 1C had a fantastic time at their first school disco!  They enjoyed dancing with their friends, showing off their best dance moves, and playing fun party games. Everyone had big smiles, and it was a wonderful evening!
