P1-4EM enjoying Zog by Julia Donaldson
We have been enjoying reading the book Zog by Julia Donaldson. We have been learning about rhyming words and enjoyed some challenges to write as many words as we could of a particular rhyming pattern on a white board, whilst P1 had to look at strips of rhyming words and spot the odd one out. P3 and P4 were busy skimming and scanning the text of Zog and highlighting all the pairs of rhyming words they could find!

Saidheans: Ar Corp
Tha Clas 1-2 air a bhith ag ionnsachadh mu dheidhinn ar corp ann an saidheans an teirm seo. Chord an topaic gu mor ris a h-uile duine gu h-araidh na “experiments”. Seall cho trang sa bha sinn!
Dh’ionnsaich sinn mu an obair a bhios ar cridhe a deanamh. Thuirt a chlann gu robh e coltach ri pump a cuir fuil timcheall ar bodhaig. Dh’eist sinn ri fuaim ar cridhe a cleachdadh stethoscope.

Tha patrain air ar corragan a tha eadar dhealaichte airson gach duine san t-saoghal!
Chan fhaca sinn bitheagan sam bith ged-ta!
Chleachd sinn inc airson larach ar corragan fhagail air paipear. Chunnaic sinn na patrain eadar-dhealaichte a tha aig gach duine!
