Ourselves
We have learning about keeping ourselves healthy. We looked at different fruit and made our own fruit salad. It was
yummy!

Senses activities and visitors
We have been learning about our senses and what it might be like if our senses don’t work as well as they should. We had two visitors in class to help us understand what that might be like. Mrs Piper joined us to talk about Visual Impairment and Mrs Thornhill talked to us about British Sign Language. We also played games where we had to use our senses to work out a problem or solve a puzzle. We even had a go at Goal Ball.
Water water water water!
We are learning about water and its uses. Here are just some of our watery activities. We also learnt about Yero the Rainbow Snake – an Australian Aboriginal story about rain.
Senses- visit from Isobel and Spice
Our new IDL topic is Senses. To get us thinking about how important they are, we had a visit from Isobel who is blind and her guide dog Spice. We learned a lot and was very impressed with how calm and clever Spice was.
It was a great start to we hope will be a very interesting few weeks.
Speyside Care Home visit
Recently we visited the residents at the Speyside Care Home and sang our Spring songs. We remembered all our actions and words. We certainly made everyone smile and we enjoyed ourselves too. Well done everybody you got a class Oscar for all your hard work.
Planting and growing
As part of our learning we were thinking about living and non living things. Primary One grew seeds- grass seed and cress seed. Some seeds had all the right conditions- the needs of the seed and some did not. Look at our yellow grass -it grew in the cupboard!
Needs of a seed
P1 have been learning about the needs of a seed. We made actions, sang songs and made a small play to remember a seeds needs…water, space, light(and warmth) ,air ,soil and time.
Vivaldi’s Spring
P1 listened to the classical piece of music -Vivaldi’s “Spring” and made a spring inspired mural. We had a lovely sunny spring day for it too!
Spring is here!
Spring is here in Primary One. This week we have been studying daffodils, naming the parts of the plant, planting some bulbs and drawing and painting them. We also tried some hot cross buns -yummy!
