Literacy<\/strong><\/p>\n

This week in Primary 1 we have been working hard to improve our literacy skills. We have started reading for ourselves! To start with our books feature only pictures, but this means we can use the pictures to tell the story in our own words. This is one of the targets we are focusing on in class. Whilst exploring our new books we have been discussing the setting, this means where the story takes place. We drew pictures to describe this as well as having ago at writing a simple sentence.\u00a0 We have also been introduced to all the characters we will be reading about. Their names are Kipper, Biff, Chip, Mum, Dad and of course Floppy. You will hear lots and lots about them over the coming months.<\/p>\n

We have been learning the new sound t and i, we can identify the sound and we are becoming experts at writing them too. Our new words this week were ‘and’ and ‘it’.<\/p>\n

In writing, we have been learning how to give our opinion. This week we wrote about what we felt about Halloween. Here are some of the sentences we wrote.<\/p>\n

Saatvik – I think Halloween is great.<\/p>\n

Cooper – I think Halloween is exciting.<\/p>\n

Alex – I think Halloween is good.<\/p>\n

Sophie – I think Halloween is scary.<\/p>\n

We have been working really hard to write tricky words on our own and to use the sounds we know to help us with spelling. We have been remembering to use our targets, this week we had a focus on using a capital letter, a full stop and putting finger spaces in between the words. Here are some examples of our work.<\/p>\n

Numeracy<\/strong><\/p>\n

As we continue to focus on teen numbers we found a great game to play that not only helps us to recognise teen numbers but helps us to develop that skill of subitising\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0(seeing the amount without counting) on a ten frame. Here are some pictures of us in action.<\/p>\n

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

It is a shame that we can’t properly celebrate Halloween this year. In Primary One we have decided to make our classroom a bit spookier by creating our own bright orange pumpkins. After reading the story ‘Pick a Pumpkin’ by Patrica Toth we discussed all the different Halloween traditions that our families follow. Carving pumpkins was the most common one! Here are our spooky Halloween pumpkins.<\/p>\n

Happy Halloween everyone! We hope you have a suitably spooktastic evening even if it is a little bit different this year.<\/p>\n
