Good Afternoon. Another week gone already. P2\/1 have worked very hard this week. In Literacy, P1 have this week learned the sounds \u2018k\u2019 and \u2018ck\u2019 and the tricky word no. We have made kangaroo and koala puppets, taught ted, sorted pictures into \u2018ck\u2019 and not \u2018ck\u2019 and rolled dice to make words. P2 have been revising the \u2018ure\u2019 and \u2018ire\u2019 sounds. We played snakes and ladders, played roll and read, wrote our words in rainbow colours and did handwriting. We also read our new reading books.<\/p>\n
In Numeracy P1 have been exploring pattern. We looked at shape, colour and picture patterns. We made peg patterns using our pegs and boards, tower patterns using Lego bricks and completed colour patterns on scarves. P2 have been looking at numbers bonds to 10 and 20, comparing number sentences and adding how many altogether. We completed bar models, played games and used our greater than, less than and equals to symbols to complete number sentences. This week was Maths week Scotland. We have created symmetrical natural art using materials from the woods such as leaves, played eliminator where we have to get into groups of the number shouted out, we have been robots and had to direct our partners around the field using positional language such as forwards and completed the BBC Rainbow quizzes which covered a variety of topics such as adding and odd and even numbers.<\/p>\n
In Health and Wellbeing this week we looked at two resilience tools, challenge your mindset and get active. We watched Mojo the Dojo videos about not giving up and learning from our mistakes. In assembly we spoke about the tool of get active and about taking risks when trying something new. \u00a0For interdisciplinary learning we spoke about what a fact file is and we are going to work in pairs to create a fact file about an animal.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday we had our first session of Outdoor Learning with Mrs Smith. We went on a walk to the woods and went on a bear hunt. We talked about words such as above, behind, up, down, over and through. We collected lots of sticks, pine cones and leaves.<\/p>\n
Here are a few of the children\u2019s reflections:<\/p>\n
