Fun in the EYC

Within  literacy, we have been using the active board and playdough to create  a recognisable person. We have also been enjoying lots of stories in our reading corner and outdoors!

We have enjoyed using the pegs to touch count and challenged ourselves to match numbers to the objects. Bethany used the pegs to make a tower taller than herself!

In our EYC we love to celebrate the boys and girls achievements! Well done to Emily for receiving her certificate in Maths this week!

We are responsive to the interests of the children and this term we have collated many of their ideas.

We have been looking for worms outside and focusing on animal habitats! Lots of learning and fun happening in the EYC this term and we can’t wait to share more with you all.

Gardenrose Primary 1 (2020 – 2021)

Welcome to the Primary 1 page! This page will be regularly updated with information about our learning through the year, as well as photos of all our hard work.

Literacy

In Term 1, we are working on all our initial sounds – we have already covered s, a, t, p, i and n. To help us learn these, you can listen to the Jolly Phonics songs on YouTube. As well as this we are looking at the story of Mr Wiggle and Mr Waggle. Feel free to use the resource below to download the story to practise with your child at home – ask them to show you our fun actions. Mr Wiggle and Mr Waggle

Maths

In Maths we are learning our numbers to 10 this term using the Ten Town program. Use games such as this Underwater Counting game to help your child to practise counting to 10. https://www.topmarks.co.uk/learning-to-count/underwater-counting

Topic

This term we are looking at the Percy the Park-Keeper books, with a focus on Seasons and Woodland environments. When you are out for a walk, try to spot some signs of the changing seasons.

P.E.

P.E. days for Primary 1 are Wednesday and Friday.  Try to make sure your child has outdoor appropriate shoes with them on these days. Full P.E. kit is not needed this term for Primary 1, as P.E. lessons will take place outside.
