After a very busy day in the classroom, P1a decided to make the most of the nice sunny weather and go outside and play at the end of the afternoon. Â As you can see as well as enjoying playing with the toys we are making new friends too.
This morning P1a were able to show Miss McDermott who was in class by removing the T shirts that we made with the buddies on Friday from the washing line and putting them in the basket. Â Miss McDermott was delighted that everyone was in class again after the weekend!
Today we had an Incy Wincy Spider theme in class. Â As well as reading a story about Incy Wincy Spider we sang the song and made our own spiders which were very tricky to cut out! Â This week one of the sounds that we are learning is “s” for spider so we had to look for the sound and listen for “s” words in the story. Mrs Bennie has made a giant web just like in the story so that we can display our spiders on the wall.
Here we are enjoying lunch with the buddies!
This afternoon we learned about a little boy called Kipper. Â He is in lots of the reading books at Linlithgow Primary School. Â We coloured little cards with his picture and his name on to help us remember him. Haven’t we done a good job?!!
On Friday P1a were delighted to be joined by the buddies to complete a small task. Â We designed T-shirts for our self registration washing line so that Miss McDermott doesn’t need to read the register out every day to know who is in school.
Here we are hard at work!
If you look at our blog again next week you will be able to see the finished washing line!
Despite the rain the boys and girls were delighted to get outside and play with the buddies this morning. Â The buddies also helped them to practice lining up smartly – one line for boys and one for girls rather than one big long line.
We were delighted to welcome our music specialist Mrs McWhirter to join us in P1a this morning. Â Mrs Mc Whirter knows some of the boys and girls from our nursery class but she was pleased to meet lots of new children too. Â We played some singing games and then played some bells and sang a special rain song which has hopefully chased the rain away for the rest of the day! Mrs McWhirter will be teaching us music on Wednesdays this term.
After milk and a story we went for a walk round the school. Â After meeting Mrs Robertson and the ladies in the office we popped into the hall and had a quick practice of how we will need to sit for assembly when we go on Friday. Â Fortunately because we are P1a we will be sitting in the front row but this means we will also need to sit properly and do good listening as Mrs Robertson and Mr Taylor will be able to see all of us!
Last of all, we said hello to our school cook Mrs Boyd. Â She told us that she is looking forward to seeing us all again on Friday for the special P1 lunch and that one of the choices on the menu is pasta bolognaise – delicious!
Here are some lovely photographs of P1a and their buddies on their first day at Linlithgow Primary School. Â Miss McDermott hardly recognised everyone in their smart new uniforms and looks forward to seeing all the boys and girls again tomorrow!
