This week we were learning all about the ‘l’ and ‘c’ sounds. We were printing with the Lego bricks, building letters with the Lego, making letters with the leaves, making caterpillar patterns, using cotton wool to make clouds for C and using the cars to trace our letter shapes. We also had a go at some caption writing on whiteboards. Mrs McAulay put a picture on the board and we had to think of a sentence we could write about it. We then had to practise using our finger spaces and phoneme fingers to sound out and write out little sentence.
In Numeracy we continued our work on addition. We were learning all of the addition facts for 2, 3, 4 and 5…….. finding all of the different ways to make these numbers. We used 2 plates to split objects and also used the Numicon to visually see which numbers add together to give us these answers.
In HWB this week we were celebrating World Kindness Day. We talked all about our value of kindness and came up with ideas of things we could do in school and at home to show kindness to others. Mrs McAulay is keeping her eyes peeled to see if we are doing any of them. In PE we continued to develop our ball skills and learnt how to work co-operatively with a partner. We used different parts of our bodies to move the ball and practised throwing and catching at the end.
This week we also started our Nativity rehearsals. We have been working with Primary 2 to learn some of our songs but it is all top secret at the moment!!
Reminders:
- Christmas lunch and Pantomime letters back to school asap
Hoping you all have a lovely weekend!
