This week the children have continued to strive for success as we approach the end of P1. This week we have performed presentations which all the children did wonderfully. We have been learning about the feeling of Guilt and explored this emotion through the story ‘Finns Little Fibs’. The children created a comic strip of this story and were able to describe what happened in each picture through writing. The children had a fantastic time at our Summer Disco and all dressed for the occasion. Finally we said goodbye to one of our wonderful classmates and celebrated them with a good bye treat! Good Luck S in your new school next year, we will miss you!

Last week the children loved our Music class. They were learning to use instruments and follow rhythm cards to music. The children loved getting to use each different set of instruments and they did a fantastic job working as a team. Well Done!

Over the past few weeks, the children have be using the story ‘STUCK’ by Oliver Jeffers to explore literacy. They have been answering comprehension questions, predicting, and will be reviewing this book for our response writing next week. For homework the children were challenged to construct and design their very own kites. The final results were incredible. Well done P1c!

This week the children have become History Detectives! They have loved learning about the past and comparing it to the present. This week in the playroom the children have loved being in our very own ‘History Museum’. They have taken on new roles to experience working in a museum, re-creating music videos from the past, matching old pictures of their teachers to now, and drawing old computer game characters.

Welcome back P1c, what a fantastic week have had as we transition into our last term in Primary 1. The children have worked incredibly hard and have show dedication to their learning. This week the children have enjoyed reviewing past knowledge through games and active learning stations. In HWB the children have been focusing on teamwork and collaboration. The children have really enjoyed their P.E lessons this week. They have been learning how to throw a ball to a partner and how to strike a ball with a bat. Take a look at some of our learning.

What an amazing term we have had in P1c. The children have all worked so hard and are making fantastic progress. This week the children have been learning all about Easter traditions. We have had lots of fun in our playroom consolidating literacy and numeracy learning with Easter/Spring play provisions. The children created fantastic ‘Wanted’ Posters searching for the Easter bunny. All children were able to successfully describe their character and use a connective to extend their writing. In Health and Wellbeing we have been learning about Growth Mindset and that mistakes can be marvellous. We also have enjoyed being outside in the Spring sunshine playing with all of the outdoor toys and resources. As always, I am incredibly proud of all the progress the children have made. Well done P1c, have a fantastic break!

The children have engaged very well with our Easter themed play provisions. They loved learning to make Origami Bunny’s and search for numbers in our Easter egg hunt.

The boy and girls loved getting to visit the library last week. The library committee helped support the P1’s to select a story and read it. The children especially loved getting to sit in the staff room to read their stories.

This week the children have a lots of fun in Numeracy and Maths. We have been learning to use money and recognise all the different coins, and how to use grouping to support multiplication. In health and well-being the children have been discussing the importance of helping others, we explored this through drama and the children loved making freeze frames to show them helping others.
