P2/1 have settled in well to the school routines. This week P1 have been learning d and t. We have made d and t with playdough, taught ted how to write them, looked for the letters in the sand, created a dinosaur and a tiger. P1 also learned the tricky word the. P2 have been revising the ea and oi sounds. We searched for words in a word search, played roll and read and played an autumn woodland walk game which involved us reading ow or oi words. In writing this week we wrote about what we are looking forward to this year in school. In Numeracy and maths P2 have been busy learning about the more than and less than symbols. We know that Charlie crocodile likes to eat the big numbers and we can identify the bigger or smaller numbers in a sentence, for example 9 > 6. P1 have been busy exploring the numbers 6 and 7. We have been counting 6 or 7, ordering 6 or 7 and drawing 6 or 7. As a class we are in the middle of creating our class charter and we have been thinking about the five school values of aspiration, compassion, equality, perseverance and respect. In P.E we are enjoying playing games such as Port, Starboard and working on being spatially aware. Here are the children’s reflections on their learning this week;
Ayden: “I enjoyed assembly today and talking about compassion, respect and positive relationships.”
Ch: “I learned about the greater than, less than symbols <, >.”
Charlotte: “I enjoyed learning the letters d and t and using the playdough to make them.”
Hamish: “I enjoyed talking about houses and writing our new letters on our backs.”
C: “I enjoyed learning about the sound t.”
Lucia: “I enjoyed finding the letters in the sand.”
Hiba: “I enjoyed Mrs Mill’s assembly.”
Sam: “I found learning the greater than and less than symbols tricky but I enjoyed it.”
Another busy week in Primary 1. This week we have been learning the sounds d and t. Now we know m, a, s, d and t we have begun to build some simple words. It would be good if you could practise looking for these sounds at home and when you are out and about in the local environment.
In our numeracy this week we have been learning the numbers 6 and 7 and have been learning the days of the week. There are lots of songs on Youtube to help the children learn their numbers and days of the week, have fun singing these together at home.
This week the children have shown a great interest in playing mummies and daddies in the house corner so we have begun to look at learning about Our Families and have talked about diversity and how everyone’s family is different.
In PE we have been developing our listening skills as we learned to follow instructions while playing a game with partners.
Here are some of the children’s comments about their learning this week:
Elise “I liked playing in the house corner with Nieve and being a mummy and I liked drawing.”
Georgie ” I liked playing doctors and playing with Penelope and Sahasra. I liked playing with every single person in the playground.”
Sophie ” I liked learning and playing with Eva.”
Ruby ” I liked playing doctors with Penelope.”
Penelope “I liked playing tag outside with Georgie and Ruby.”
Elloise “I liked playing doctors in the house corner and drawing.”

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.
