This week in P1 we have been learning the sound ‘p’ which is a pink quiet lip sound and ‘n’ which is a dark blue sound which we make with our tongue. P1 are learning which parts of the mouth make the sounds we learn, this helps us to make the pure sound by using the correct parts of the mouth. I will go over this during meet the teacher. In numeracy, we have been counting and sorting with numbers 9 and 10.  When the grass on the field is dry enough to use P1 have enjoyed playing outdoor games. We also walked around the boundary of the field and discussed safe boundaries during outdoor PE. The children enjoyed playing in the back garden this week, we did some sound spotting and found seeds, sticks and feathers. Please see below for the children’s learning comments.

Olivia – ‘p’ is a pink sound because it is a soft sound; pig has the ‘p’ sound.

Oliver – ‘p’ is a pink sound because it’s a quiet sound.
