Happy new year!
Welcome back to school! Hope you all had a lovely holiday and are excited for the New Year. This term our topic will be Dinosaurs. We will begin our topic this week and use this to develop our writing and researching skills. We will also use this as a theme for Art, Drama, Music and Technology.
In Numeracy we will continue to develop addition and begin subtraction. We will continue to develop an awareness of numbers and their place value along with problem solving mental maths strategies. We will also focus on telling the time and measuring length this term.
We would like to remind parents that indoor P.E with Mrs Ferguson will take place on a Thursday. Please ensure your child has appropriate gym wear and check that gym rubbers are well fitted. We would also like to remind you that children should not bring juice in their water bottles for P.E and class time.
The Burn’s Poetry Competition will take place on the 22nd of January. Please help your child to learn one of the poems given. There will be winners selected from Primary 1 to perform at the school assembly on that day. Please have your poems ready for the 21st so that we can choose the winners from each class. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask one of the teachers.
Thank you for reading,
The Primary 1 teachers
