What a fantastic first week back in Primary 1 with lots of learning.

We have started a new topic in class, Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 , as part of our topic we have started reading Hamish McHaggis stories to help us learn Scottish words and places in Scotland. We all worked together to make the characters of the book and listened to the story to find adjectives for each character.

We talked about how we live in a country called Scotland, Polbeth and West Calder are towns in Scotland.

In maths we are working on number bonds to 10, making 10 by adding two numbers together or taking numbers away from 10. We had lots of fun building 10.

In RE we talked about the Epiphany, how the Wise men visited baby Jesus and brought him gifts. We also learned that the Bible has lots of stories about Jesus in it and we treat the Bible with care. One story we looked at was the story of Noah and the flood. We loved making our very own rainbows 🌈 .

On Friday we completed our free writing, we enjoy getting to write about anything we want! We were using our skills we have learned in literacy to write words as well as draw pictures and we are using the classroom tools 🧰 to help us.

Such a bust first week back we will definitely enjoy the weekend 😀
