It’s been a busy week again here in Primary 1B. We have been enjoying the sunshine this week with lots of outdoor learning opportunities. We hope the sun continues to shine for our last few weeks of term.

We have been learning a new sound this week ‘ow’, and have been completing lots of different activities to help us learn how to use this sound to read and spell new words. One of the new skills we learned was how to complete a word search. It was great fun trying to find and read as many ‘ow’ words as possible.

We also have been writing some imaginative stories to go with our dragon pictures. We named our dragons and took him or her on different exciting adventures into magical forests and haunted houses!

Mrs Walker helped us to create a wonderful display outside our classroom to showcase our super work.

Our school value focus for this week has been Challenge! We have used our recognition board to display the children who have been ‘caught’ challenging themselves. A proud moment this week has been during the speed writing of our common words, a task which we do every morning. Some of the children took it upon themselves to not just write the word as we always do but to try to put it into a sentence. I am so proud of them all for always striving to improve!!

We hope you enjoyed a little snapshot of our learning this week.

It has been another busy week in P4/3. We  made the most of the sunshine and took our learning outside. Some children presented their class talks out on the field, here are some pictures;

More photos to follow next week.

Numeracy

We continued to develop our understanding of division and looked more at solving division word problems. Some children challenged themselves to look at division sums with remainders. Well done P4/3! Next week we will look at fractions.

Literacy

We explored the  new writing genre of Narrative writing. We discussed what kind of writing this would entail and discovered that if we wanted to become the next JK Rowling or Roald Dahl, then we would need to be familiar with and practise this type of writing. We will work on improving our imaginative writing over the next few weeks.

Health and Well-Being

We continue to explore friendships and the different ways to be a good friend. Next week we will introduce a new topic, ‘Changing Me’ where will explore the changes in our body.

I will update the blog next week, have a great weekend when it comes!
