P1-3

Welcome to the Primary 1-3 page! Miss Muir is our teacher this year and Mrs Parker works with us to help with literacy and numeracy every morning.  Miss Ingram supports us in class on a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday.

We have all settled in well to term 1 and have been following routines and getting used to our areas. We are very lucky this year to have the whole downstairs area including both classrooms and open area to develop our learning.

We had an interesting visitor to our school at the start of the term who made an appearance at the field. After lots of investigation we discovered it was a tree giant! We started to learn the text of the Tree Giant through out Talk for Writing and innovated to make our own information texts.

In maths we have been doing lots of number work. Primary 1 have been visiting Ten Town to learn all about their numbers to 10. We have met lots of different characters to help us. We have also been learning about pattern and shape and exploring the different 2D and 3D shapes within our environment.

Our Science topic is the Sun Moon and Stars. We have had lots of fun learning about shadows and the different planets. We even had a go at making our own mnemonic to remember the order of the planets.

We have also been learning about the Egyptians this term and are really excited to keep discovering new and interesting facts about them.

P1-3 have been working with Miss Green from Music Heroes to practice singing. She joins us on a Wednesday afternoon and will be with us until Christmas.

Outdoor days will be every second Friday. P1 and P3/2 will be going on alternate Fridays. P1 will be joining the EYC and P4 will be joining P3/2.
