Another busy week…

Literacy

This week the children were developing their ability to draw a detailed picture to match a short story.  If they wanted to they could ‘have a go’ at copying the sentence too. Lots of detailed pictures and some wonderful letter formation!

Nathim and Poppy were letter detectives and used the magnifying glasses to search for some of their initial sounds in the books.

It’s been another busy week in Primary 1.  We went to the ICT suite for the first time this week.  We were learning to name the different parts of the computer and why it is important to have a password.

The children had to use the mouse to point and click in order to navigate their way around the Cbeebies site.

 

Outdoor Learning – We’re going on a Bear Hunt

Mrs McVey and the boys and girls enjoyed getting outdoors and re-enacting the famous story ‘We’re going on a Bear Hunt’.  They used different parts of the playground and their imagination to bring the story to life – the sand pit was the mud, the playground was the river, the bamboo was the forest and the bubbles were the snow. Mason was our bear – I’m so glad we found him 🙂 what a wonderful afternoon we had!

 

Term 2

As we head into a new term we will keep you updated of our learning journey.

This week has been a busy one so far – we celebrated Halloween on Tuesday and we had great fun.  We made spooky crafts, spooky biscuits and had fun at our party.

We had great fun!

Welcome to Primary 1

Welcome to Primary 1

 

This is the first blog post from Primary 1 this session.  We have been very busy settling into the rules and routines of school that we haven’t uploaded any pictures or posts on to our blog page.

We have selected a few pictures to upload to show our journey through Term 1.

Learning Through Play

The children enjoyed learning to write their names and using mirrors to draw themselves.

Synthetic Phonics

This year we are discussing with the children where the sound is made in our mouth when we learn a new letter and its sound.  We have used jam torches and mirrors to help see where the sound is made in our mouth.

We will post updates of our journey through Primary 1 on our Blog page so keep your eyes peeled 🙂

Please leave some comments for us to read.

 

 

 

 

P5, P6 and P7 Go To “Go Yellow!”

On Wednesday the 31st of May P5, P6 and P7 went to go yellow for the day. They did a 5k walk at Bellahouston park to raise money for the Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice. They played in the park, hung about with the mascots and played at all the activities that they set up.

There were also some animals joining in the fun! There was a horse called Spencer who was a famous Clydesdale and a highland cow with its little baby. Spencer was a very proud horse, he had chestnut hair, and white feathers on his feet. He was there with his owner who was talking to all the children about how hard looking after horses were and the responsibility’s of looking after them. The highland cows were making funny noises. When we left we shouted “GOODBYE!” and the mother cow made a great big “MOOOOO” and everybody laughed.

Near the end of the day there was a mascot race with the winner being a blue bird, then a little while later there was a mascot dance off then the winner of that was Champ The Chimp then there was free time for people to go up on the stage to dance sadly when Cleeves was just about to go up we had to leave.

It was a great day and we all had lots of fun!!
