Happy New Year from P1B

Before Christmas we were very fortunate to have the opportunity to learn from our P7 house captains. The house captains helped us to learn about our school values.

Our P7 buddies also visited us in class and we shared our learning with them. Our buddies also helped us to make new playdough.

 

This week we have been very excited to have had the opportunity to have a talking/ learning partner in class. Mrs. MacLean selected our partners randomly using our lollipop sticks with our names on them. We will change our partners every week. This week as well as sharing information about Christmas with our partners, we have had opportunities to share learning in phonics, reading, PE and maths with our partner.

Sophie said, my partner got mixed up a little with his reading and I helped him.

Elena, my partner was really good at reading and she helped me.

Finlay- my partner was reading a different book, I liked seeing a different book.

Jenna- we helped each other in the gym hall, we got better after we helped each other.
