Primary 1 and primary 1a have been very busy enjoying their new ‘Creation Station.’ The idea behind the creation station was to allow the children to be creative in their own way and to see what they came up with! It has been great seeing all their fantastic designs. In the Creation Station we have;

• sand and water
• playdough
• construction materials with sheets for children to plan, draw and write about what they want to build
• story area with puppets, sound feely bags and story sequencing etc
• Maths area with 3d shape and symmetry activities etc
• lovely, calm area where children can ‘drink tea’ and have a chat
• creation area with cardboard boxes and various art resources where children have free choice of what to make. They love it here!

In class the children have been working hard on reading their new books, learning new sounds and common words. On Tuesdays they are busy writing about different things, aiming to be star writers!

They have also been working hard on addition and subtraction, symmetry and working with money.

Children have enjoyed our mini Scotland topic and we were delighted at how well the children learned the Scottish poem.

There are lots of photos to look at and apologies for not blogging for a while!
