As part of Scottish Maths week, we have been learning about 2D shapes. We used circles, triangles, squares and rectangles to make robot pictures, used 2D shapes to make our own pictures and patterns, played 2D shape games on the smartboard and used 2D shapes to create rockets!
This week we have continued to practise our number formation and learned how to write the numbers 4 and 5. We used spaghetti, play dough, pipe cleaners and cubes to make our numbers and practised writing our numbers on the whiteboards and with Miss Harrison.
Our two new sounds this week were ‘p’ and ‘n’. We used our new sounds to make words such as ‘pat’, ‘nap’, ‘ant’ and ‘pan’. We practised writing the ‘p’ sound on post-it notes and in the squidgy paint bags and used our magnetic boards to build words. When learning our ‘n’ sound, we used play dough to make our sound and drew ‘n’ pictures and wrote ‘n’ words on a graffiti wall. We also looked for words with our new sounds in our reading books and played ‘n’ words snap!
On Friday we went to the gym hall with our P7 buddies to take part in some Zumba for Fitness Week! Thankfully we have the long weekend to recover!
We hope that everyone enjoys the long weekend. Thank you for reading our blog post.
P1A and Miss Harrison 🙂
