It has been a short week this week, we hope everyone enjoyed the holidays. When we came in on Wednesday we found a special letter had been delivered from the friendly dragon.  So in writing primary 1 decided they wanted to write back to the dragon and tell it that Rose (baby dragon) had been on her best behaviour and that she had been on great adventures with them

. 

We were also very sad as the letter from the dragon said Rose can now go home now as Fairyland has been restored.  After writing our replies we then packed them up in an envelope and went a walk to the local post box.   Primary 1 were very excited to see the local area.  

In Maths we started to look at time this week.  We found out about o’clock and half past.  We played a matching game and made our own clock faces.

  

We also joined primary 2/1 for some maths outside.  We had to find objects outside or use chalk to create a shape and then cut it in half or colour half.

We had the nursery over this week for our first transition afternoon.  We really enjoyed helping the nursery children.  We were introduced to our new topic of toys.  We all had great ideas of different toys (from a slinky to dolls).

On Friday we had a Kirkhill Chatter so all the children went to different classrooms and did an activity there.  Some were helping keep the school clean, some were learning about fairtrade and others were playing games outside.

The schools Celebrating Success Assembly is on Tuesday so we have been practicing the song we are singing.  We also were making our props this week.  We made suns using paint, paper plates, different coloured of paper and lollipop sticks.

In our homework jotters this week it mentions if the children can bring in summery clothes (for example shorts and t-shirt, sunglasses) in a bag so we can get changed and be dressed for summer for the assembly.
