Hello Families of P1B!  I cannot believe we have been at school for one whole week and how far we have come!  The children are settling in very well and getting themselves organised quicker each day as they become more familiar with our routines.  Some highlights of our experiences at school so far are quoted as follows: Paige liked it when we chased each other around the room with feathers.  We were pretending to be Ticklish Two the swan.  Ticklish Two is a character in our Number Zoo that helps us learn how to form the number 2 correctly.  Markuss has loved meeting our Spanish friend ‘Paula’ the friendly caterpillar.  Paula has taught us how to say, “Hello, Goodbye and My name is” so far in Spanish.  Ishani S also claims that learning some Spanish has been her favourite part of Primary One so far.  Finally, Jonah thinks that cooking and tasting asparagus has been his highlight.  We were learning about asparagus as part of our ‘a’ phonics.  We look forward to all the exciting things coming up next week!  Watch this space….
