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.

Poppy – I liked going to Mill Farm. I liked seeing all the animals and stuff.  My favourite part was the soft play!

Kaelan – I liked going to Mill Farm.  We got to go to the soft play and there was an obstacle course, it was super fun!

Teria – I liked going to mill farm. We saw a turkey and sheep, I liked seeing the guinea pigs. We had a go on the go-karts. I enjoyed the assembly it was about having a growth mind-set.  We learned about the life cycle of a frog and the nursery came to do it with us.

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.

Lewis – I liked the life cycle of a chick at Mill Farm. It starts from an egg and it goes into a ducking, then it grows into an adult duck. We saw ducks at Mill Farm, I saw one jumping!

James – I liked going to Mill Farm because we went to soft play and there is a new bit that they are building. We had lunch then we looked for the pigs in trees but we couldn’t see them. I also liked the go-karts because they we really fast like a car.

Solomia- Singing was cool.  We were singing with the frog, you have to go under it!

Nicholas – we went to Mill Farm, I saw a donkey!

Sushanth – I liked to go to Mill Farm and I liked playing with Poppy in the soft play. I enjoyed my lunch. When we were in the soft play I got tired and I had an ice pack to cool down.

Roshan – I liked bones and stones at Mill Farm.  We found a big a stone. We used a shovel and a brush to brush the sand off the stones!

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.”
