ACTIVE LITERACY

P1/2 have continued their hard work in literacy as they learn about their alphabet, phonic sounds and common words  to help develop their spelling, reading and writing.   The particularly like to learn outdoors and through active participation, songs and games  etc.

Also P1/2 had their first walk and visit to Bellshill Cultural Centre Library this month. The children learned about joining the library getting their very own library ticket  which they would use if they wanted to borrow a book.  The librarian read them lots of stories, played games then the children got to look at all the great books they might choose when they joined the library.

The  children also found a useful tool for measuring at the library before the went back to school.

STAR WRITERS OF THE MONTH

Here are some of our Star Writers for this month .  Well done Everyone.

NUMERACY

The children have really enjoyed actively engaging with their learning in numeracy and learning about 2 D and 3D shapes.

HEALTH AND WELLBEING – SAFETY                                                                   AND INTERDISCIPLINARY LEARNING

In all areas of Health and Wellbeing  the children have been learning about Safety.  For example, at home/in school/playing in the playground/walking up and down the stairs etc, as well as Internet safety and P.E.

In P.E and Relaxation,  for example  the children are learning about moving safely.  Following instructions.  Finding a safe space with plenty of room around them so they are not bumping into anyone.  This  will help the children to work well on their own, or as part of a team.  Helping them not only to think of themselves but of others so that they can come together as a successful team.

SOCIAL SCIENCES – PEOPLE WHO HELP US

We are learning a about people who help us and have been thinking about all the people who help us to stay safe and what there jobs are.  We have also had the RSPCC in to our school for a visit and they were able to tell us how to stay safe too.
