We had a very active week in Primary 1 this week. We enjoyed our visit from the SSPCA where we learned all about Scottish wildlife and what to do if we found any animals that were sick or in danger.
We also went on a Santa Stroll around our school grounds and the surrounding area. It was great fun! We had to spot letter clues on our journey and note them down in pairs. At the end we slid all the sounds together to make a Christmas phrase…’ Santa Claus’.
We’ve had lots of fun this week during Book Week. We read about Arlo , the lion who couldn’t sleep, and made our own Arlos with a song that helps us to sleep too. We looked at a non-fiction book and made our own woodland animals book for our class library. The book ‘Inch and Grub’ explored friendships and showed us what was important. We thought about what made a good friend and put our ideas on friendship flowers. We also chose a book and used a scene to make a window display.
Our week ended with Children In Need Day. Many thanks for your kind donations.
Happy Red Nose Day! We loved seeing your costumes and hearing all the jokes in class and assembly.
In class, we have recently been learning some new sounds: oo, ee ai. ie, ou and oi. We have also been learning about Spring with Mrs Turner. We are beginning to learn about halves in Maths and have been practising our addition and subtraction.
We have been continuing to develop our reading skills and reading in small groups. Please look at Seesaw for more information.
As the weather gets warmer, please can you ensure that the children bring enough water to school.
Due to current covid restrictions, it is essential that personal items are kept at home. Children are not able to share with classmates.
Have a lovely weekend.
