We have had another busy week in Primary One, continuing to learn the routines of the classroom and bringing ideas to our play areas. We have been looking at healthy eating this week, starting by sorting foods into healthy and unhealthy. In the areas around the classroom we have been coming up with fab ideas about how we can incorporate learning about healthy and unhealthy foods in our play. In the writing areas we have been busy coming up with healthy menus and lists of foods that we like. In the house corner we have been role playing preparing healthy foods, including some delicious sounding smoothies! We have also been printing with apples and potatoes and have even opening our own fruit tuck shop.
In language this week we have been focusing on ‘s’ and ‘i’. At home you can consolidate what we have been learning by looking out for these sounds when you are out and about and thinking of things that have these sounds in them. Children can also have a go at writing these sounds.
In maths we have been looking at numbers 0-5 and counting forwards and backwards to 20, starting at different numbers. This is something you could be practising at home or children can be challenged by going further than 20.
Reminders for next week-
Mon/Tues- Holiday
Homework will begin week beginning 23rd of September.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to get in touch by speaking to your child’s teacher at the end of the day or contact the school office.
Thank you for your continued support.
