It’s been another busy old week down in Primary 1 and Primary 2/1.
We have been learning the f sound and been using it to build lots of different words. We have been practising forming the letter using various materials we have found in the classroom, like play doh, buttons and even beans.
We have been working together to build a plan for our work on seasons. We are learning all about Winter. We know lots of things already and have made a map of what we would like to learn next.
Lewis had the great idea of making some winter art. We learned about hot and cold colours and talked about how they made us feel. We used lots of cold colours to paint the landscape and then added bare trees and snow to complete our lovely pictures.
Lucy – I really liked doing my painting because it looked really good at the end.
Kayleigh – I liked using all the different cold colours.
Brendan – I enjoyed tearing the paper to make the snow because I LOVE snow!
Today the British Transport Police visited our school. They talked to us all about their job and how they can help to keep us safe in the community. It was really interesting.
Finlay learned that it was important not to go on the train tracks.
Ethan reported back that if you drop something on the tracks only the police can get it back for you.
Ashley said that if you got lost you can always ask a police officer to help you.
Kayleigh explained that part of the job of the police is to arrest people who steal things. Stealing is bad.
Brendan said that it was important never to touch electricity because we could get electrocuted.
Sophie told us all about the little film clip about staying safe with our parents.
We learned lots of new information.
