P1/2 have had a great week!

Tickled Pink:

• For writing this week the Primary 1s were writing what they could see in Autumn. They enjoyed exploring the autumn tuff tray with leaves, sticks, conkers and animals (our favourite was the squirrel!). The children drew fantastic pictures of things they might see in Autumn and then tried to write it too.
• We have been learning about doctors this week as part of our People Who Help Us topic. The children have loved listening to stories and sharing their own experiences. We learned what an appointment is and had lots of role play in the classroom being receptionists, doctors and patients.
• We have been learning about the importance of washing our hands with soap. We carried out an experiment to see what happens when we wash our hands with just water versus when we wash our hands with soap. The children loved this and made nice posters to remind people to wash their hands.

 

Green for Growth:

• As part of our measurement focus, the Primary 2s were learning to measure length and height using a metre stick. This was a little bit tricky but we are going to continue this next week.
• In PE some children were finding it tricky to bounce and catch the ball whilst moving. We will continue to practise to develop control and co-ordination.

 

Our Lead Learners next week are Leo and Harriet.

 

Have a super weekend,

Mrs Wallace
