P2 This Week-7/6/19

We enjoyed performing at the assembly. We liked doing the mini beasts song and the butterfly song. We worked hard to learn our speaking parts. At first we were  a little bit nervous, but then it was okay. Everyone like what they were doing. In writing we finished our storyboards about Mr Grinling. We learned about Grace Darling and how she saved nine people during a stormy night and looked after them in her lighthouse. We watched the lunch-bunch and learned about healthy eating. We have been learning about asking questions using question words and question marks. We continued to learn about division. We also made graphs and asked questions of each other about the information on the graph.

This week in P1b we have been learning ‘ow’ as in how and ‘ai’ as in Spain. In maths we have been programming bee bot to move forward, back, and make left and right turns. We learned about the life cycle of a chicken and enjoyed dancing to the chicken song!

P1b highlights from W/E 31.05.19

This week our highlights are:

Austin – I liked going to Mill Farm. We looked at some animals and we went to the soft play. The best bit was going on the train!

Subhan – I liked learning about the life cycle of a frog.  First it was an egg, then there was a tadpole, then it was a froglet and then it changed to a frog.

Alister – I liked the assembly about being smart and when you grow your brain. You grow your brain by eating food and drinking and learning new things.

P1a Learning Reflection W/E 7/6/19

Another busy week for Primary 1. In maths we have been investigating symmetry. We have learned what symmetrical means and identified lines of symmetry in shapes, pictures and patterns. We had a go at creating symmetrical pictures of our own. In Literacy we learned two new sounds ai and ow and the tricky word they. We completed worksheets where we had to write words with the sounds ai and ow, played roll and read and did handwriting. In writing we wrote about our trip to Mill Farm. We had to include at least three things that we did. We have a new star of the week. It is Emma. This week with the nursery we were learning about the Life Cycle of a chicken. We watched a video and then completed a worksheet where we had to cut and stick the pictures in the right order. We sorted living, non-living and never lived objects into the correct columns. On Friday, we went to Primary 2’s assembly on Minibeasts. Here are a few of the children’s reflections:
Sam: “I learned what symmetry means. It was a little tricky completing the pictures to make them symmetrical.”
Euan: “I found it tricky completing the pictures to ensure they were symmetrical.”
Sevinc: “I enjoyed learning about the life cycle of a chicken with the Nursery.”
Lois: “I enjoyed the star of the week circle time and listening to what makes Emma special.”
Isaac: “I enjoyed Primary 2’s assembly. My favourite part was the minibeast song.”
Ayden: “I enjoyed learning the new sounds and making words with these sounds.”
Murdo: “I learned the new sound ai.”
