Lots of super number work!

Today we played ‘steal the number’. We had to use super mental maths skills to win the numbers. The person with the most numbers at the end won the game.

We also used the number dice to practise our adding. We rolled the dice then had to add the numbers together. We took the big number and put it in our pocket then added the small number on with our fingers.

Homework and Reminders

  • Thank you to all the parents, grandparents and carers who came along to the Parent Open Morning on Friday – it was great to have you all in the class.
  • ‘Snowball Madness’ is this Wednesday from 3pm until 4pm. It costs £1 and children will get a hot chocolate treat. Please hand in permission slips and money if you child wishes to go. 
Reading Books
  • To ensure children are being challenged, and to increase fluency in reading, some children will get 3 new reading books home over 2 weeks (instead of 1 book per week).
  • This will be judged as appropriate e.g. length of book, difficulty of book.
  • I would appreciate your ongoing support at listening to your child read their book whenever you have the time (I understand this is not always possible). It makes such a huge difference to their confidence and really brings their reading on. Thank you.

Burns Day

This afternoon we had a mini burns supper. We sang Auld Lang Syne and ate shortbread and oatcakes. We learned all about Robert Burns and listened to some of his poems.

Then a special Papa came in to tell us all about life at school when he was a wee boy. We asked him super questions and listened to his stories.

Lots of Learning

We played a new literacy game this week – we had to dance around to the music and then when the music stopped we had to find a partner and read our word to them.

As part of our topic we have been looking at how Scotland is different now to how it was in the past. We played different games like hopscotch and leap frog.

We then made our very own timelines.

Show and Tell

A few parents have been asking me about ‘Show and Tell’. Please do not feel your child has to bring things in everyday – once a week is absolutely fine, or if your child has something special they would like to share with the class.

Wednesday

This morning we were busy writing sentences in literacy. After we finished we got to play different literacy games with our friends.

In the afternoon Mrs Rutherford came and did some work with us. She taught us how to spread bread safely using a knife. We had great fun and loved getting to eat our sandwich afterwards.
