It’s been another busy week in Primary 1B.<\/p>\n

This week we have had a focus on the mathematical concept of ‘pattern’. We have been exploring patterns in our environment and noticed that if we look carefully patterns are everywhere! In particular, we have explored some simple repeating patterns, using colours and shape. Here are some of the activities we have been completing in class to help further our learning.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We have been practising simple repeating patterns and after reading the story of the Hungry Caterpillar we decided to make our own pattern caterpillars.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \"\"<\/p>\n

We have enjoyed using the game Complete the Pattern on the Smart Board.<\/p>\n

As we quickly approach the new season of Autumn, a lot of our learning opportunities have came from the children bringing in objects of interest, more specifically leaves! We love it when something sparks our interest and have had lots of opportunities to explore how the seasons change and what we notice. We have been investigating our 5 senses and what they are. We are now able to name each of the senses and in class we have been relating them to Autumn. We drew pictures and labelled them with things we can…. feel, taste, see, smell and hear during the Autumn months of September, October and November.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0 \u00a0 \"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We have also been learning all about the sound ssssssss.<\/p>\n

We created a ‘Spotty Snake’ to help us remember the shape of the letter. We had lots of fun with this activity and the end results look fabulous. We practised writing the sound, S is blue letter sound because we use the tips of our tongue to make the sound. It is a long, soft and stretchy sound. We have been practising lots of different ways of forming the letter correctly. It is a tricky one to get around the right way!<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \"\"<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What a busy and quick week it has been. Just a reminder that Monday and Tuesday next week will be a (well deserved) holiday for everyone and we will welcome the children back to school on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

I have been hearing lots of stories how the boys and girls have already started to get to work on their spelling challenge. This is fantastic to hear and I look forward to hearing all about the inventive methods everyone has developed to help them learn the new words! I may even ‘borrow’ some ideas to use in class!<\/p>\n

Have a lovely long weekend,<\/p>\n
