In maths, we have been learning about number bonds, multiplication and division, data handling, and time. In IDL, we have explored toys from the past and compared them to the toys we have today. Our favourite parts have been learning about forces and electricity \u2014 we even made our own electrical circuits!<\/div>\n

In gym, we have been creating gymnastics sequences; you can see our performances on Seesaw.<\/div>\n

We love our visits to the library with Mrs Reid and also enjoyed having families in school to explore our Read, Write, Count bags together. World Book Day was a real hit \u2014 we enjoyed a whole\u2011school book study and came to school dressed as book characters!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Merry Christmas from P1\/2!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We have had a fantastic term filled with lots of learning, bucket filling, and nativity fun!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
\n
<\/div>\n
In maths, our P1s have been exploring counting, number recognition and formation, as well as some basic addition skills. P2 have been learning new addition and subtraction strategies alongside lots of number structure concepts. We especially enjoy our daily number discussions, songs, and Fab Four questions!<\/div>\n
\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In literacy, P1 have been learning how to form letters and even read and write some basic words. P2 have been spelling longer words while developing their handwriting skills. We have all been learning to write descriptions and have linked these to our favourite stories\u2014The Gruffalo<\/i>\u00a0and\u00a0The Jolly Postman<\/i>, to name a few!<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We had an exciting trip to the local post office to hand in our stamp designs\u2014you can see them on display! We learned about all the busy workings of a post office thanks to Heather!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\"\" \"\"<\/div>\n
\n
<\/div>\n
You will all know by now that we are budding actors and actresses after our nativity performance! We have been learning to speak with expression and confidence in front of an audience. We have also learned lots of musical skills and think we can hold a tune not too badly! We hope you enjoyed our Christmas show as much as we loved preparing it. It was very special to think about our own village of Kelty and all our favourite parts about living here in our\u00a012 Days of Kelty<\/i>\u00a0performance.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\"\" \"\" \"\"<\/div>\n
\n
<\/div>\n
We hope you have a very Merry Christmas and that your lights shine very brightly!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Hello from P1\/2! We have had a brilliant first term so far! It has been a joy to welcome our new P1’s, our P2’s have been the best buddies for them alongside the primary 7’s! We have enjoyed reading, singing and playing together!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We began our year by exploring the book ‘How to Fill a Bucket.’ It taught us all about being kind and how to be a good friend.\u00a0 Our class bears have been watching us filling up each others buckets and have been going on amazing adventures with our pupils at the weekends!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In numeracy, P1 have been exploring counting, number formation and recognition. We are getting used to joining in with class jobs and love our number song time! P2 have been exploring place value, number ordering and structure. We’ve been working very hard and especially loved our maths walk during maths week! We went on a hunt for numbers around the village and found loads!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In literacy, we have begun a new phonics scheme across p1 and p2 which has been super exciting! P1 have been learning their initial sounds and P2 have been learning to spell longer words and have been working hard on their handwriting. We have loved our library visits with Mrs Reid and have got to choose our own book every fortnight to borrow.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Alongside all of this hard work we explored the artist Matisee at the beginning of term. We have been learning different artistic skills. Now we are exploring houses and homes and have been creating houses, comparing them, and using the Three Little Pigs story to link it with our literacy!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
All in all its been a very busy and enjoyable term- we will see you in term 2… but we won’t mention the C word just yet!<\/div>\n
