Our first full week in Primary One has been fun but tiring!  We have been learning lots of new things and everyone is settling in nicely to the new Primary One routines.  This week in our literacy we have been learning the sounds m, a and s.  We looked for these letters in the sand, we made them out of playdoh, practised forming them at the writing table and told teddy how to write them.

In our number work we have been learning the numbers 0-5 and we are becoming really good at counting forwards and backwards.  Next week we will move on to numbers to 10.

We have been learning about staying safe while crossing the road and talked about how to use a zebra crossing, an underpass and the Green Man to help us.  We have been using Go Safe With Ziggy, check it out at home using the following link: https://roadsafety.scot/learning/go-safe-with-ziggy/road-safety-awareness/.

We have settled in quickly to the lunchtime routines and many of us have been enjoying the school dinners and going out to play with our buddies.

Thanks to all the parents who have remembered to name their children’s belongings, it has made returning misplaced items so much easier.

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend and we look forward to seeing you all on Monday.
