This week, we voted to sit in our own special seats! We will still be learning through play in P1 but these set seats just give us more space for when we are completing independent activities! Look how excited we are!! 

We have been learning loads this week! In Literacy, we are focussing on our new sounds ‘oa’ and ‘ie’ and we are also learning our yellow tricky words! We are working on or reading skills and are loving having our grown up reading books! Ask us to read to you at home! Remember to ask us questions about the story as well as supporting us in reading the words!

In Numeracy, we are working ver hard to learn our number bonds to 10. these are numbers you can add together to make 10! Have a look at our work!

We have also been working on shape! We sorted 3D objects into different categories. Here we are sorting which objects can and can’t roll!

In our PATHS lessons, we are learning about feeling angry. We know different strategies we can use when we begin to feel angry or frustrated. We know when people feel angry, they are angry at a behaviour or situation and it doesn’t change how they feel about us! We had a close look at different parts of our faces to see what angry looks like! We chose angry eyes, an angry mouth and angry eyebrows to make our super angry face!

Happy New Year P1 children, parents and families! I hope everyone had a relaxing holiday and you are all ready for the amazing learning we are going to be undertaking in Term 3 💪🏼

This week’s homework grid looks a bit different! This week we are solely focusing on getting to grips with the new reading books and working on learning the Stage 1 Key Words. These words go alongside the tricky words.

Please support your child’s learning in class by reinforcing these words at home. These words are :

Biff, Chip, Kipper, Mum, Dad, Floppy, and, a , the.

Once your child can recognise these words, they should be able to read the Stage One readers with ease.

Thanks for your your continued support! It’s going to be a good one!
