World of Work

Next week is World of Work week.  On Monday 16th November, we can Dress For the Future  and think about what we want to do when we are older.

“I want to be a doctor.”      Jessica

“I want to be a ballerina.”   Emily

“I’m going to be a footballer.”    Ibraheem

“I’m going to be a footballer too.”   Saoirse

This lead to an interesting conversation about girls and boys BOTH being able to do whatever job they want to.  We watched clips of  the World Champion Women’s football team and Rudolf Nureyev, the most famous male ballet dancer.

“I’m going to be a police officer.”    Maisie

“I want to be a taxi driver.”    Jayden

 

Sparkle Time

We love Sparkle Time in Primary 1.  Lots of active learning with our friends.  Have a look at what we can do!

We can make repeating patterns with different colours . IMG_4299 IMG_4298 IMG_4297

We can make the pattern very complicated too!

Five cubes repeated!      IMG_4300

 

 

We are able to sort objects into groups.

Blue and not blue.

We like choosing different ways to sort.  Four legs/not four legs, objects on the land/objects on the water to give you just a couple of examples.

 

 

 

Dental Health

We are doing a topic on dental health.  We will be learning how to keep our teeth healthy and thinking about the foods we should be eating.

 

‘We have to keep our teeth healthy and clean and sparkling.’   James

‘We brush our teeth three times a day to keep them healthy. We brushed them for the first time today in the classroom.’  Saoirse
