Money, money,money

Primary 1 has been learning about money. We learned all of the coins and have been making money totals to 20 pence using different coins. We have used our rekenrek counting frames to work out change from 10p with Mrs Kerr’s help. Money takes a lot of practise to learn so we will be revisiting it throughout Primary 1.

Ladybird = Clockleddy

We have been using collage to make the characters from our story “What the Ladybird Heard”.

We read the same story in Scots “Whit the Clockleddy Heard”. Comparing the stories we were able to work out what a “deuk in a dub” and a “hairy grumphie” were. Do you know?

The completed scarf

Hamish will look fabulous wearing his new scarf!

Primary 1 has worked so hard to weave a new scarf for Hamish McHaggis. It took a huge team effort to complete it. We think it looks cosy!!!

Yoga in primary 1

Primary 1 enjoyed a nice relaxing session of yoga after a hard days work! The children are learning how to look after their body and mind. They are developing good skills for yoga.

We are not sleeping…..we are doing our breathing patterns!!!
