Look at how we learn….

Number Time

The children really are really engaging in the range of different learning opportunities happening in and out of the classroom.  This week we have been focusing on number ordering, formation and being able to sort objects into sets.  Here are some examples of the children hard at work.

Shape Hunt

We took advantage of the nicer afternoons this week and we went on a shape hunt.  The children were looking for examples of 2d shapes in their environment.

Primary 1 hope you enjoyed their learning journey this week.  Have a lovely weekend!

Busy Bees…

Wow what a busy week have had.  We had been busy preparing our songs for the Macmillan Coffee Afternoon but we managed to squeeze some more fun learning in!  Have a look at us in action…

I wonder if you can guess which letter we were learning about?

Yip that’s right ‘l’ – the boys are girls made lollipop crafts to reinforce that sound! Mmm they look good don’t they.

It’s very important that we reinforce our sounds so we did this through sorting activities and roll and cover activities.

The children have started to read, write and identify common words – watch out we have some new readers about 🙂

A listening station has been introduced at language time.  The children really enjoy listening to stories and telling us about what they listened to.

Primary 1 Macmillan Coffee Afternoon

We would like to say a big thank you to everyone who came to support such a worthwhile cause.  I think everyone would agree that the children did a great job showcasing some of their learning.

Together as a school we raised a staggering £295!  Lots of wonderful raffle prizes were won and we would like to thank the staff for donating them.

Primary 1 sharing their learning…

It has been another busy week in Primary 1. The boys and girls have settled very well into the routines of school. They are enjoying the range of learning experiences.

The children have been introduced to digital technologies through the use of digital cameras. The children have enjoyed taking pictures themselves of work they are proud of.
