Primary 1 Art

P1  have worked very hard to create this  display in the corridor. We painted paper plates to make the body of our robins and covered them in red and brown tissue. We think our little robin “Robin Red” will like them!

This week we have been sharing stories and learning facts about hedgehogs, Mrs Collins showed us a photo of the two hoglets (baby hedgehogs) that she leaves special hedgehog food out for every evening. We had great fun making our hedgehog spines  by printing with card dipped in paint.

 

Different ways of looking in P2/1

We’ve had a lovely week in P2/1. We’ve had lots of chats this week about how we all have different thoughts and can see things differently, looking at stories from different perspectives and also looking at some optical illusions – how many animals can you see in this picture?

We’ve spent more time outside looking at trees, and on Monday collected more leaves from sycamore, oak and lime trees. We then painted roots, trunks and branches and when they’d dried did some leaf printing. We talked about the different parts of the tree before labelling them. We’re also getting very good at recognising trees in the pictures of our stories!

In phonics we’ve learned the h and r sounds and are continuing to put these sounds together to build words. In numeracy we’re continuing to do lots of formation and counting out items.

We’ve had lots of fun in PE this week. We are doing running, jumping and throwing in athletics and playing games to build stamina.

We’re also enjoying playing, inside and outside the classroom. This week our play seems to have a robot theme!
