Primary 5b 23/24

P1b have been learning about St Valentine today! We talked about the people that we love most and we wrote about why we love them so much!

We also made some beautiful cards today to take home!

Well done Primary 1!

Primary 1b are celebrating some star writers this morning! We have been writing about our February weekend. We have used the words first, next, and finally to help us to sequence the events of our weekends. We talked about it first with our learning buddies before we had a go of writing. Jack and Zara have both produced fantastic pieces of writing this morning all by themselves. Fantastic work!

Well done our award winners from last week! Anas received our literacy award for working so hard on his sounds both in class and at home! Arya was our star of the week for being a superstar helper in the class for both her friends and for the class teacher! Well done to both of you!

Primary 1b have really been enjoying supporting each other with their learning this week! Our learning buddies have been working really hard on their sounds, tricky words, numbers, days of the week and months of the year!

We have also been continuing with our daily challenges in class this week!

We have also been up to lots of interesting things through our play this week.

We hope all of our families have a lovely holiday weekend!

Primary 1b have really been taking control of our own learning this week! We have been enjoying both literacy and numeracy challenges and have been supporting each other to calculate our number stories and to fix mixed up sentences!

We’ve also had a lovely golden time this afternoon exploring a new construction resource and playing with our STEM resources.

We have started our learning buddies activities this week, please ask us to explain this to you at home.

Have a lovely weekend!

 

This month P1b will be learning about Scotland! We started the planning process by talking about what we already know about Scotland.

We then explored 2 Scotland talking tubs! Our talking tubs were full of all things Scottish. We had a good look through them and selected things that we were interested in.

We placed the things we were interested in on to our floor map and then drew pictures of the thing we were most interested in and placed those on our floor map too.

 

Fantastic work P1b!

P1 and P2 had a brilliant morning down in the hall showing off our very impressive dance moves!

We can only apologise for the blurry photos, we were moving too quickly to pose!

We would like to wish all of our children and families a very merry Christmas and a happy new year! See you all bright and early on 6th January!

Mrs Carwood and Miss Gemmell 🙂

Primary 1 would like to extend their thanks to all of our families for your support last week for our nativity performance! The children had a wonderful experience and we are all feeling very festive now!

We have had a very busy day today. We have been doing some dictation for the first time and we have been working on remembering to include capital letters, finger spaces and full stops in our sentences.

We also have been learning mental maths strategies, please ask us to share our doubles with you!

This afternoon we received a letter from Santa himself, looking for help with his sleigh! We designed new sleighs for Santa and we will post them to him tomorrow for his approval!

Hi all,

Copy of the nativity costume letter below.  Dress rehearsals are on Monday so please send costumes in as soon as possible. If you have any questions please contact the school.

We can’t wait to show you all of our hard work!

In order to keep the cost of costumes as low as possible, can we ask that you send in a pair of pyjamas for your child to wear when in the chorus (slippers etc if you wish!). We have costumes for all other parts but we will need:

Mum/Dad: Dressing gown for over pyjamas

Stars/North Star: White tights, light coloured shoes/ballet shoes, piece of silver tinsel if possible.

Angel Gabriel: White tights.

Shepherds/Innkeepers/Wise Men: Dark coloured trousers and t shirt.

Donkey: Dark coloured trousers and long sleeve t shirt if possible.

Camels: Shorts and t-shirt.

Please send costumes in to school in a plastic bag with your child’s name labelled clearly.

 

Thank you,

St Mark’s P1 staff
