Room 1 – 12.6.26

This week in Room 1:

– we have been working through our data handling block and are becoming tally mark experts! 📈📊
– Lauren came in to teach us dance on Tuesday morning. We learnt a dance to ‘help’ by The Beatles and ‘Stop’ by Spice Girls. Songs that some of our parents and grandparents enjoyed when they were younger. I will get the videos out to you via Parents Portal asap! 💃🏼🕺🏻🪩
– we wrote about Scott McTominay’s bicycle kick in Hampden back in November which helped us reach the World Cup! Pupils used a describing bubble to write a sentence about what they saw in the picture.⚽️ – we learnt how to play ‘kick the can’ a game that some of our grandparents told us they used to enjoy playing when they were younger! 🥫
– and finally we finished our week with celebrations for Scotland ahead of their game on Sunday at 2am. I am not sure many of us will be watching live, I certainly won’t 🤣🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⚽️

 

Have a lovely long weekend!

No Rm5 No Party!

This week we learned about all things Scotland. We focused on our national stadium, the Scotland players, the World Cup and incorporated this into our play and our learning. We built Hampden with Lego, used junk modelling and paint to create goals to practice our skills at football, and created our dream football top. We learned about The Tartan Army, and all about how exciting it is to experience Scotland being in the World Cup for the first time in 28 years! We were surprised that Miss Livingstone was a baby at the last one!

Today, Mrs Meechan and the P7s organised games for us to play including a big blow up ball that was the same as us, beat the goalie, and they arranged for us to have parties with snacks this afternoon. We absolutely loved it and had a fun Scotland themed day. We even got to wear Scotland strips!

Take a look at some our snapshots below.

 

Just a note to say that there will be no more homework, as it is a short week and the end of year is fast approaching. P.E will still be on Thursday and Friday next week. The following week we will go for PE on Tuesday and Wednesday.

 

Have a lovely weekend, and a lovely holiday on Monday (school is closed). Let’s hope we can celebrate a win from Scotland this weekend!

Room 1 – 5.6.26

In Room 1 this week we have been learning about data handling. We created a bar graphs using objects we found outside and compared the most popular items. We also learnt to record information using tally marks.

We thoroughly enjoyed a book called ‘The Barnabus Project’ and were inspired to create our own ‘failed projects’ and ‘perfect pets’. Have a look at some of the brilliant creations!

We are also delighted to share that we have finally reached 20 proud clouds!! This means we have earned a treat of our choosing! More information to follow next week.

A reminder that we are having a P1 class photo on Monday.

Have a lovely weekend!
