We also had a great time reading with our P7 Buddies and enjoyed some yummy hot chocolate !
On Friday we were so excited when our parents came to school for the Sharing Our Learning morning, We showed them some of the activities that we usually do during Maths time. We followed our timetable and completed them very well. We were absolute superstars and made Mrs Moffat very proud. Thank you to everyone who came along.
What a fabulous week !
P1 M Children’s Mental Health Week, Scots Poetry and Rid Motors !
Children’s Mentql Health Week was 5th to 11 February.
P1 M learned how music can make us feel calm. excited , happy and sad. We listened to some exciting music and showed off our dance moves then we listened to some very relaxing music and had some lovely chill time.
We practised listening to the sound of our breath to help us relax and feel nice and calm.
This week we learned the story of Noah and the Ark and the song The Animals Went In Two by Two,
We have been very busy learning a Scots poem – My Wee Rid Motor and a song -Heid , Shooders, Knaps and Taes this week . We performed them at our Scots Poetry recitals. We were all amazing and everyone won a special certificate for taking part.
Have a great holiday everyone.
Primary 1 M another busy week !
P1 M have had another very busy week.
Our topic is’ Where we live’ so we have been learning about places in Scotland and about places in Polbeth .
Hamish Mc Haggis has been to Edinburgh so we found out where he visited and used Google Maps to take a peek at where Hamish was. He visited the castle and went to the Tattoo !
Here we are drawing our houses and painting models of them.
We are learning all about adding numbers together so we played Snakes and Ladders to help up count on and add. It was great fun !
We also jumped around to the music, then we had to land on certain numbers.
At the end of our busy week we did some Mindfulness ! We really enjoyed listening to the music, watching the lights making gentle cloud shapes and relaxing our bodies. We learned how nice it is to feel calm and relaxed.

P.1 M’s Burns Supper.
P1 M have had a busy week learning about all things Scottish. We have been listening to Scottish songs old and new, and learning a poem in Scots language.
We listened to a Hamish McHaggis story and learned about his places he visitied in Scotland. We found the places on a map, and we used Google Maps to find Polbeth and our school. We were amazed to see familiar buildings in Polbeth and Scotland.
Here we are drawing and colouring the characters in the Hamish McHaggis stories.
Here we are enjoying haggis , neeps and tatties, shortbread and Irn Bru at our Burns Supper. We scoffed the lot , then danced it off to The Red Hot Chilli Pipers music.
Last week we learned all about adding numbers together using Numicon. We were all amazing !
