P1b brought in their favourite books from home to share with the class for Scottish Book Week. We have really enjoyed sharing our favourite stories with each other. Miss Sommerville set up some fun phonics activities this week. Everyone enjoyed the messy table activity v for volcano. We are very sad to say goodbye to Miss Sommerville, who has finished her teaching placement with us. We wish her every success with the rest of her teacher training.

Miss Sommerville, we will miss you! xxx

Highlights

Austin – I liked the volcano because they were exploding we made lava for them. Volcano starts with the v sound.

Poppy – I liked learning v, down the line up the line because it’s the same shape that you do.

Charley – I like making the penguins they were hard to cut out but they were fun to make. We are reading a story about being different and the penguins are all different on the door.

Nicholas – Volcano starts with v the volcano went splash.

Lewis – Making the volcanoes it was hard to build and get it right it was too high so we made it lower.

Solomia – Putting the shinies in the tub to get popcorn and movie.

Christian – Playing with the volcano

James – You had to build a big a triangle volcano then we put lava it it.

Poppy – The writing in the story corner is hard because its really hard to read the print.

Charley –Trying to collect lots of shinies to get to the top. You need to do good work and good siting and listening to get up to the target.

Nicholas – Collecting shinies by being good.

James – Making the penguin it was hard to cut.
