P1b have been learning all about the signs for greater than and less than today. The Strawberries and the Pears have been supporting each other to complete a task where they have to work out which way round the arrows should go for the number sentence to make sense!

 

Primary 1b have been reading the story Oi Frog! We were so inspired by it that we decided to use it to make our own Easter poems!! We talked about lots of things to do with Easter and then we used them to make silly rhymes. Well done P1!

Thank you to P7 for inviting us to their USA landmark showcase!! We loved learning all about your models!

This week we will have our last non fiction reading books before going back to our reading markers. Books this week are:

Sunshine group – Let’s go to the park

Snowflake group – I can help

Rainbow group – Make a monster

There are also games available on Education City this week for each group that reflect our maths and numeracy work for the week.

Whole school homework this week is reading challenges for the First Minister’s Reading Challenge.

This is an embedded Microsoft Office document, powered by Office Online.

There will also be paper copies in homework folders.

Happy homeworking!

We are so proud of the books we created during golden time! Well done Primary 1!

P1b have been continuing to develop their skills in number this morning! The Strawberries have been applying their knowledge in numbers to 100 in different contexts in building numbers using concrete materials this morning and continuing to practice creating their own 100 squares. Through doing this we have been noticing patterns in the numbers!

The Pears and Apples have been continuing to work on identifying missing numbers and today completed 5 calculations independently! Unfortunately we didn’t manage to get any more pictures of them because they were doing so much jumping on the number line that they were all blurry!!! They have also been challenging themselves to create 100 squares too! Well done!

P1b have been working really hard on their number work this week. The Pears and Apples have been using a giant number line to find missing numbers in a calculation…

The Strawberries have been working really hard on their numbers to 100 and have been filling in 100 squares independently! Well done!

Primary 1b have been celebrating World Storytelling Day! We had some lovely Primary 7 visitors who came to read us some of the stories that they have been writing in class

We have also been using our storytelling basket today and we have created some fantastic stories which we will be turning in to books! Well done Primary 1!

This week we will be continuing with our work on fiction and non fiction texts. Again, the non fiction reading books that your child will bring home this week do not feature in the reading markers so your child will not have this home with them. Reading books this week are:

Sunshine group – Wild Rides

Snowflake group – Going Camping

Rainbow group – Is Teddy Too Big?

Whole school homework this week is around Modern Foreign Languages. Primary 1b have been learning about French colours and have a rainbow sheet in their homework folder. Please can you support them to have a go at the vocabulary and colour in the rainbow using the appropriate colours 🙂

Thank you to P7 for coming to listen to us talk about our favourite animals and listen to us tell our stories, we hope you enjoyed listening to them as much as we enjoyed telling them!
