Today we enjoyed a very special Christmas lunch where we got to eat together in our class Bubble.

After lunch, Mrs L set us a Chocolate Data Challenge! Using tubs of Celebrations (and carefully sanitised hands!) we investigated whether the most popular types of chocolate were represented by the quantity of each type of chocolate in a  typical tub .  We also learned some new skills on our iPads for interpreting and displaying the data by creating tables, inputting data and creating charts and graphs.

We were very busy today making chocolate truffles.  Parents and carers please enjoy, these are delicious.

Then we made out Santa Boxes.  We had to measure, cut and fold accurately.

We also enjoyed our Christmas Lunch together.  Thank you Mrs Clyde and staff, it was scrumptious.

Primary 1 were very excited when Santa sent a special Christmas message via the smart board. He also sent  a fantastic big box of play dough with  shapes and cutters as well as a set of Gruffalo games.

Thank you Santa

Primary 1 will be bringing home their sound book and a sheet of keywords. The book is to be kept at home and used by the children to help practise sound recognition. The words on the sheet are currently being focussed on in class, please help your child to learn to read and write them.

Thank you
Mrs Collins and Mrs McGilp

This block primary 1 have been focussing on the four Kingsland Values, respect,  courage, compassion and excellence. We have talked about what these words mean and what we can do to show these values in school. This week we each chose one of the values to focus on in school for example ……

compassion – some of us want to try very hard to help others if they are hurt or sad

respect – look after the toys and the cloakroom by keeping it tidy

courage – be brave and try new food in the dining hall

excellence – to work hard learning  to read

We posted our pledges onto the wall.

Primary 1 have been learning about the changing seasons. They made these beautiful calendars to show the changes in the trees through the year.

We had great fun today in Primary 1. In the morning we made placemats for our movie afternoon snacks, we also made a special Santa star to take home. In the afternoon we watched Father Christmas and our class favourite The Gruffalo, as well as enjoying  tasty snacks and some outside play.

I loved making these drawing on are ipads it was so fun.

We had a great time watching Polar Express.  Thanks to the Social and Leisure Committee for the yummy snacks.

We enjoyed creating these tricky snowflakes.
