Hello All,
We’ve had a very busy week in Primary 1. We have been practising our Scottish poems and songs and learning all about Robert Burns and how people celebrate Burns Day. We really enjoyed trying some Scottish foods including haggis and oatcakes and especially liked the shortbread! We listened to Auld Lang Syne, some Red Hot Chilli Pipers bagpipe music and some poetry recitals.
Also this week , as part of our Dinosaur topic, we have been learning about the role of Paleontologist. We will be excavating dinosaur bones in our role play area and solving the puzzles to create the skeleton of a T Rex and Brachiosaurus! We also had a turn at using tools to excavate some fossils (chocolate chips from chocolate chip cookies!)
This week in Maths, we are continuing with the concepts of subtraction and telling the time.
In Writing, we wrote letters to Professor Rex telling him how we are looking after the egg that he delivered and asking him lots of questions. We decided it would take too long to send so we sent the letter by email as a class. We are excited to see his reply. We will keep you updated!
Thank you for your continuing support,
Primary 1 Teachers.
