Yet another busy week in Primary 1.  We have been looking at number bonds of 6 and 7 in Numeracy.  In Literacy we revised all our sounds and looked at how we can use words to create a sentence.  We listened out for beginning and end sounds in words, and some of us even managed to listen for the correct words out of two choices.  We are focusing on listening and attention at all times in Primary 1.  Ask us what makes a good listener! 🙂

We did lot’s of writing this week! We wrote a letter asking the government to save the habitats of bears and not cut trees.

On Tuesday we ventured out in to the community again and went looking for leaves again.  However, the main reason we went out in to the local area was to pick up rubbish as we have been focusing on Hedgehogs in our Scottish Wildlife topic.  We wanted to tidy up the hedgehogs’ habitat and make it lovelier for them. We learned how important recycling is for not only animals but us too. We then used our leaves to create our own hedgehogs.   On Thursday we went to Vue in Livingston with the whole school to watch Sing.  We all enjoyed our trip and were very good listeners throughout the trip. 🙂  We came back to school that day and worked hard to write a letter to a hedgehog asking him to eat bugs and worms.  On Friday we bought some treats in aid of Children in Need and enjoyed coming in to school in our “dots and spots”.

Our word boost words this week were: delicious, gobble, trudge and howl.  Make sure to ask us what they mean and even act them out! 🙂
