This week, P1 have begun their technology project based around the ‘Three Little Pigs’ fairytale. The children have been split into groups and have already had discussions in their groups about what they could make their house out of to protect the pigs from the big bad wolf. The children recorded their ideas on their planning sheet and will soon begin constructing their houses. They have come up with the brilliant idea of using a fan to act like the big bad wolf and the challenge is to make a house which will not be blown down! Thank you to all parents who have sent in some junk for us to use. Good luck everyone – the big bad wolf will be huffing and puffing very soon!

Fun in P1!
Primary 1 have been very busy this week with fun lessons planned by Miss Hewit. On Tuesday the children enjoyed listening to the story of Hansel and Gretel before making gingerbread houses using real sweets. The children really enjoyed this experience and although they were tempted, they managed to stick the sweets onto their houses rather than eating them!!
Today, Miss Hewit led a measuring lesson. The children were involved in a variety of activities including ordering items from smallest to largest, drawing pictures of their families – ordering them from tallest to smallest and measuring a variety of items using non standard units including lolly sticks and footprints. The children really impressed Miss Hewit and Mrs Lloyd with their measuring skills. Well done everyone!
