Hello

We hope you are well!

This week in P1 we have been learning the ‘ng’ and ‘oo’ sound. We have had fun creating our own ‘books’, blending words with these sounds and writing interesting sentences.

In P.E we created our own Scottish Country Dance in pairs. We had to show good listening and talking with our partner, count in 4 and be in time with our partners. It was so much fun and we enjoyed performing to the rest of the class.

For our topic we have been comparing trains from the present and past. We could share some interesting facts about steam trains from the past such as what they were used for, what they looked like, their speed and sound. We then compare this to electric and diesel trains from today. There was some great listening and discussions!

In maths this week we have been learning to identify and tell half past times on an analogue clock. We recognised that the minute hand points to the 6 and the hour hand sat past the hour.

In Outdoor Learning, we took part in the RSPB birdwatch with our Buddies. It was great fun trying to spot the different species and we used tally marks to record how many of the different species we saw.

We hope you have a lovely weekend!
