We have had the most exciting week in Primary 1! It all began last Friday at assembly. The children who took part in the STEM challenge were all given a certificate and a winner from each class was chosen. Our winner was Elizabeth who created a super model of the Loch Ness Monster. Well done Elizabeth!
Our star award winner for doing extra reading practice at home was Maddison. Well done Maddison! keep up the great work.
On Monday afternoon we came back from lunch to find something very strange on our carpet.
It was a trail of glitter leading into our library. The trail ended beside a cushion and there on the cushion was a scroll!
We excitedly opened the scroll and read it.
The letter was from a dragon. The dragon was very sad and needed our help. He explained that Fairyland was disappearing, he had no castle to protect and all of the other characters had no where to live because people were not reading fairytales anymore. The dragon had already visited our classroom and thought it would make an excellent fairyland from himself and his friends to live in. Our challenge is to rebuild and read lots of fairytales. The children are so so excited. The first things they wanted to do was build a castle for the dragon to protect. They did this by drawing castles,  making them from wooden blocks, cubes and lego.
We have written letters to Mrs Stewart asking for her permission to decorate and change our classroom.
We have read Jack and the Beanstalk and have started building a beanstalk(pictures in next weeks blog) We have worked collaboratively to retell the story in the correct order.
More adventures from Primary I next week. Have a lovely weekend.
