This week in Primary 1 we started the Daily Mile. The two classes do a short lap of the playground and then a lap of the whole school. It’s great fun! We’ve set ourselves the challenge of running every day until the end of the month.

Also this week we learned the ‘oi’ sound. We did an experiment with oil, dropping in some coloured water to see if they mixed. We’ve also enjoyed reading the Oi stories.

We read lots of stories in P1 but we did enjoy hearing the bell and all stopping to read for six minutes for ‘Keep the heid and read’ on Wednesday.

On Thursday we did some great work on the iPads. In SketchesSchool we drew a picture of a cat on a mat wearing a hat! We used different pens and colours to do our drawing and then labelled it. 

We used the iPads again for our numeracy lesson, building a number line with the numicon, taking a photograph of it and then using the mark up tools to write our numbers to 20.

Here are some pictures we’ve chosen to share this week:
