Another busy week in Primary 1. We have been working very hard and learning lots.  In Literacy, we have learned f and e and the tricky word no. We have made words with these new sounds, learned how to write them and played games with sound dice. We coloured in an Elmer picture as Elmer begins with e and we are going to use them during book week Scotland. In writing we wrote about our halloween costumes. In maths, we have been continuing to learn about shape and in particular 3D shapes. We have gone on shape hunts, made shapes with our bodies, made shape wands then we blew bubbles with them, made shape biscuits, junk modelling and sorting shapes as to whether they rolled or slid. In P.E we were throwing and catching a ball to continue to develop our hand eye co-ordination. In art we finished off our space pictures. We have started preparing for our nativity and we tried to learn one of the songs. Here are a few of the children’s reflections from the week:

Sam: ” I enjoyed being the class helper this week and being responsible for taking messages to the office.”

Ayden: ” I enjoyed learning the tricky word no.”

Isaac: “I enjoyed learning the first song for our nativity.”

Lois: ” I enjoyed learning the shapes and making shape biscuits.”

Ziva: ” I enjoyed colouring in my Elmer.”

Leighton: ” I enjoyed Primary 2’s assembly on kindness.”

Euan: ” I found it tricky learning the letters f and e.”
