Primary 1

P1a Learning Reflection W/E 25th January

This week has flown by. We have been revising our set 1 sounds and tricky words. We played a roll and read game, looked for real or nonsense words and rolled dice to make real or nonsense words. In writing we learned what a simile is and wrote our own similes to describe Nessie the Loch Ness monster. “Nessie is like a dinosaur.” said Lois. “Nessie is as big as a cruise ship.” said Leighton. “Nessie is as shy as a mouse.” said Sevinc. We also said our poems to the class. In maths we have been exploring the months of year and the seasons. We drew pictures of the different seasons and discussed each one. We had to sequence the months of the year correctly. In P.E we are still working on gymnastics. We continued working on our different shapes and learned how to do two types of rolls. In Science, we went out in the garden and picked up things from nature. When we got into class we put the things we had picked up in a cup and filled the cup with water and placed it in the freezer. We also got together with Ms King’s class to prepared for the Scottish assembly. We performed the Three Craws. Here are some of the children’s reflections:
Euan: “I found looking for the real and nonsense words tricky.”
Leo: “I found it hard playing the game when we were making real and nonsense words.”
Sam: “I enjoyed exploring the months of the year.”
Ayden: “I enjoyed the Scottish assembly.”
Sevinc: “I enjoyed writing my simile about Nessie.”
Murdo:”I enjoyed the assembly and listening to the poems.”
Rory: “I found it tricky to concentrate on finding the real and nonsense words.”

Primary 4

This week in P4

We have been exploring our class reader called Ottoline and the Yellow Cat, but we have not got very far as the illustrations have so much in them to talk about. The children are being reading detectives looking for clues to the mystery and asking lots of questions. We had a go at some drama too, exploring what might happen next in the story.

The children are really progressing well with their knitting and some have even tried finger knitting and weaving this week. We have had  a mum volunteering to support the children’s efforts which has been fantastic. If you want to help please let the school know.

In maths this week we have begun work on equivalent fractions and will continue to revisit their knowledge of angles during our mapwork in outdoor classroom lessons.

During writing the children have been revisiting openings of sentences and developing their vocabulary.

We have also taken the first step in exploring emotions, behaviour and our thinking. The children have been talking about how our brain works and what it does.
