What a Spooky Spidery week! We have been busy in Primary 1 and Primary 1/2.
We read the story of Aaaaaaaaaaargh Spider! We decided to make some spider webs. We used our cutting skills and glued the art straws down onto paper. Lexie said ‘ It was easy to do and I’m proud of my work’.
Later in the week we read the story of Robert the Bruce and the Spider. Chloe explained, we learned it was ever so important not to give up just like the spider in the story. Kayleigh said ‘We made spider webs by putting a painted marble in a tray and rolling it backwards and forwards then putting it in some glitter’.
Charlie – We used our fingers to print some spooky spiders then drew 8 legs on the spiders because we learned that spiders have 8 legs. We also learned the amazing fact that they have LOTS of eyes!!
Sarah Louise – This is a picture of us sharing our home learning with our friends. We went on an Autumn scavenger hunt to find lots of Autumn natural materials. It was really tricky to find acorns!!
And of course this week was Halloween. We worked hard using our cutting skills to make pumpkins.
Joseph – We used white paper to make the eye balls and then added on the pupils. We drew all the different parts by ourselves. My pumpkin is called Lewis!
In numeracy we have been learning all about the number 6. The rhyme says ‘ down we go and make a loop, number 6 makes a hoop’. We found it tricky to give it a curvy back, we need to keep practising and not give up like the spider in the story!
In literacy we have begun to learn vowels. We learned the story of Inky’s Vowel House. This week we focused on the sound a and we decorated the a’s with ants and a leaf and used the rhyme,
‘Around the apple and down the leaf’
We did a great job at practising in the classroom.
