A few highlights from our very busy week.
Literacy
This week we have been focusing on the c sound. The children have been learning to recognise the sound, as well as read and write it. We have been playing c bingo and sorting pictures according to their initial sound. Some pictures below-
We have also continued our recount writing genre. This week the children had to recall one thing that they like to do at school. They came up with lots of suggestions including painting, drawing, writing sounds, playing in the home corner etc. Below some pictures of their writing and detailed pictures-
Numeracy and Maths
We are continuing to develop number sense and the children have enjoyed taking part in lots of different number games. They have also been exploring the properties of 2D shapes. The buddies supported the children in the making of shape rockets with their names on them.
In primary one, we also understand that play is very important to a child’s development. Play encourages and develops language skills, emotions, creativity and social skills. The children have had great fun this week turning our home corner into an Italian restaurant with real pasta and sauces. Some great pictures of them sharing, turn-taking and role-playing.
I hope you enjoyed this weeks blog. Have lovely weekend everyone!
