Term 3 in Primary 1
Good Afternoon!
I hope you all had lovely holidays and I would like to thank you all for the lovely gifts I received over Christmas.
This term Primary 1 are developing further skills in all areas through play activities.
In literacy, Primary 1 are using fairy tales to extend their imagination to tell, draw and write stories. Children should now be blending sounds to read and write words so encourage your child to continue this at home.
In numeracy, Primary 1 continue to count up to and down to 30 and beyond. Children are developing mental maths strategies to add and subtract in their head. They are using concrete materials to add and subtract such as pennies, counters, cubes, pasta, cars etc. Anything you have handy in the house. This term we will continue to learn about money and begin to learn more about telling the time.
In Health & Wellbeing, Primary 1 are experiencing a wide range of social, emotional and physical health lessons taught by teachers who are experts in those areas. Physical Education will be on Tuesdays and Thursdays- Please provide soft shoes and wear T-shirts to school.
Primary 1’s topic this term is Migration and we will be studying the Migration of animals so look out for some practical home learning activities.
Stay & Play will continue and we hope you will be able to continue to support your child’s learning at these sessions.
This blog will keep you updated on primary 1’s activities so look out for photographs of your child here and please leave comments.
Thank You
Primary 1 Contemporary Art Installation
Primary 1 have been investigating different areas of pollution in our environment. They have spotted four main forms of pollution in our area. Air pollution, Land pollution, Water pollution and Light pollution. Each group have worked together to discover the causes, the effects on our environment and the solutions to each pollution problem.
Primary 1 have used discussion to share all their knowledge about pollution in our environment and this is highlighted in our Pollution film. (A must see!)
Primary 1 investigated previous famous contemporary art installations demonstrating pollution. From this thay have used creative art to express their knowledge through posters and art installations ready to view in our classroom.
Please come along to view our amazing informative posters, listen to our stories, discover the meaning behind our art installations and enjoy our short contemporary film.
Here is a sneak preview of what to expect!!
