Hi everyone. I hope you had a nice September Weekend and are ready for the week ahead. 

• After the October holidays p1/2 will have P.E. on a Monday. Children are asked to come to school in a pair of jogging bottoms/leggings on this day as well as trainers suitable for taking part in P.E. outdoors. 

• Children should wear their normal school uniform on the top half (polo shirt/shirt/jumper/cardigan). 

• In class we have been LOVING playing a game of iSpy – why not have a game at home with your family.

• Sumdog are holding a competition this week over the whole of Scotland to see who can answer the most questions – log into your Sumdog account to be in with a chance of winning. As a reward for taking part, each pupil who answers 100 questions will receive an item for their Sumdog House! Good luck!

• Please  log into your Active Learn account and read your book for this week. What sounds can you spot? Can you find any of your common words? 

• Point to each word as you read it to make sure you don’t miss any words. Look at the illustrations and the sounds at the start and end of the words to help you. Happy reading!

•  So far we have learned the sounds: s a t p i r m d e
