This week at Forest School, we mixed our own paint! We used mud, fairy liquid and food colouring the create our paints! Then we painted the pallets outside to make them look nice! Have a look at our work!

 

 

 

We we have also been learning the sound  qu this week! We made queen’s crowns and stuck on pictures of things that started with the qu sound!

 

 

On Thursday we finally got to go on our Glasgow Bus Trip! We saw all of the buildings we had been learning about in real life! Have a look at the photos from our wonderful day out!

We had a great day and we were  all very sleepy when we got back to school!

 

In in other news, e have also been doing some real writing and summarising this week. We read the story of The Very Hunrgy Caterpillar and made fruit prints!

 

 

This week we have been loving learning all about books! We focussed on Julia Donaldson books and managed to find loads of books in our class library written by her! We read :

The Gruffalo

The Gruffalo’s Child

A Squash and a Squeeze

Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book

Room on the Broom

The Scarecrow’s Wedding

Monkey Puzzle

What the Ladybird Heard

Aila managed to go to the library and pick up more books by Julia Donaldson too! She found ‘Wake up do, Lydia Lou’ and ‘Paper Dolls’. The library is a fantastic resource! Well done Aila for visiting!

 

We we really loved learning all about the Gruffalo this week! On Tuesday some of us went on a Gruffalo Hunt outside! Look at our learning!

We found clues that led us to characters! Once we came back inside, there were some interesting treats for us! We ate roasted fox, scrambled snake and owl ice cream (or at least we pretended to).

 

We focussed on the reading strategy ‘connecting’ this week. This is when you read a book and you think about how it connects to your life. We played a game called ‘I remember when…’ as Miss Kinloch read ‘What the Ladybird Heard’. Have a look at our connections below!

Book week is all about loving reading. Here are some photos of us relaxing in our library reading our favourite books.

 

We we have started to realise that our tricky words and key words are not just inside our reading books! We explored library books looking for words we knew already!

P1 have had a wonderful week full of stories and reading! Please continue to read to us and tell us stories at home!
