We finally completed our Batman portrait. We each made one section and collaborated to piece it together.

It is based on the artwork of Chuck Close.

We are very proud of it!

The fire alarm went off this morning. It was loud but it wasn’t scary. It was important for us to practise in case there is a real fire. It went off just as we were about to start our number lines. When the fire alarm went off we lined up with our partners and we walked down to the field. Brooke’s shoe fell off but it was okay! Everyone in the school was on the field. We listened to Mrs Wilson and she said we all did well.

Today in primary  1  we were talking about what makes us angry and how our body reacts. We thought about what we could do to help us calm down and get rid of angry feelings. We used our peace button (belly button) to help us breathe in and out slowly, helping us to relax and keep calm.  Our plasticine faces show what happens to our mouths, eyes and eyebrows if we are angry.

We were examining different leaves from the trees around the school. We had to think about the colour, size and shape of the leaves. We then had to try and match them to the leaves on our sheet. A lot of the trees in the playground are quite young so we went on to the primary 7 balcony to look across at some of the older trees in the park to compare their size.

Today we were identifying sounds and then trying to build small words with a partner.

Forming Letters

Finding Sounds

Building Words

In primary 1 we have been thinking of different ways to make numbers for example, number 6 could be made with a 3 and a 3 or a 2 add 2 add 2.

We have been working hard at forming our numbers. We have little rhymes that help us for example, round the tree, round the tree that’s how we make a number 3. We talk about what the numbers look like, for example number 2 looks like a swan and number 1 stands up tall like a soldier. We use our number line to check that our numbers are facing the correct way.
