We have had a couple of very busy weeks recently in Primary 1. We had a busy week preparing and practicing for our assembly on the Life Cycle of a Butterfly. We had our trip to Mill Farm which was fantastic. Photos to follow later. Last week we were learning about i and o magic e sounds. We made words such as bike and home. In writing we wrote about our trip to Mill Farm. In Maths we have been exploring money. We have been taking part in various activities such as count up where we have been counting with money and coin exchange where we have been making values such as 3p which don’t have their own coins. In IDL, We were set a challenge by the friendly dragon. He asked us to build a 3D model of what we thought he looked liked. We could use Lego, play dough or the bricks. On Tuesday we had outdoor learning with Mrs Murdoch. Here are a few of the children’s reflections on their learning:

Lewis: It was quite challenging to make a dragon out of Lego.

Aiden: I found learning the magic e sounds easy.

Alanice: It was easy to learn o magic e.

Jan: I learned why magic e is magical.

Calum: It was easy to work together to make a dragon.

Anya: I liked working with Mrs Murdoch. We were putting objects on a map.
