We have loved celebrating World Book Day today!
We started today with The Masked Reader!
We have to guess what teacher were in disguise and what book they were reading!
We were also very lucky to have the reading committee lead an exiting activity.
Finally we finished the day with a BBC authors live event.
As part of our Mark you Mark passport, we’ve been preparing and trying a simple recipe. We’ve been learning all about Oats. We’ve had a virtual visit to a farm in Stirling and seen the journey from seed to store. So we used Scottish Oats to make flapjacks.
We took turns to pour, weigh, stir, flatten and decorate.
Everyone had a taste and it was a thumbs up all round!
Welcome to the Laragh Library.
P2 visited the new school library and choose their first loan. The books selected will be kept in school.
Parent and Pupil sessions for P1 and P2 have been arranged for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday next week. See emails for more details.
P2 were over the moon to be back to school and back in the Forest this week. Together they explored the environment, visited Grandfather tree and set off for an adventure. They were straight to work climbing trees, making ‘concrete’, playing on the rope swing and of course looking for worms.
They work in teams to create, explore and climb, all topped off with a lovely singsong around the camp.
It was great to see how much everyone enjoyed the day and we are looking forward to next week.
Reading Buddies
Over the past term we’ve been meeting our Reading Buddies twice a week. For both P2 and P7 pupils, this is an opportunity to practise their reading skills such as fluency and expression.
P2 love working with the older pupils and hearing the stories that P7 like reading.
We will continue this over the next term.
As part of our World Book Day, we had a visit from Author Alan Windram. We sang songs and listened to his stories. We loved hearing about Benny. There was laughter all afternoon.
During Book Week Scotland we went to Foundry to select books for our Borrow Basket. We selected Christmas tales, funny stories, fact books, novels and so much more. Some books we can read on our own whilst other books we will listen to others read for us.
We had a great time.
Today we worked with our tally partners to colour our little bears.
We had to give and follow instructions from each other.
This week Primary two have been encouraged to share books which they enjoy. We listened to the stories two pupils brought in and both got a big thumbs up.
On Friday we received our Read, Write, Count book bags and took these home. Today we read The Perfect Fit. We were thinking about how our class community comes together.
We then used shapes around our class to show how every shape can be useful to make the perfect thing.
The boys and girls have loved getting to know their classroom and all its resources over the past few weeks.
We have also been working hard learning new sounds and numbers. This week we have been learning the sounds s, a and t.
