Gardening 🧑🌾 Club
Today in gardening club we got to use the secateurs. We listened to the safety rules as they are very sharp and strong. We then listened very carefully to how we prune the trees in our school garden. An excellent job completed and the trees are now under control.
We also weeded one of the large planters……weeding again 🤯 and this made us think of how quickly the weeds grow and why it is important to keep on top of them so our vegetables 🌽 and flowers can grow.
we even managed to harvest some.
Primary 1
Wow what a quick week in Primary 1!
We made the most of the sunshine ☀️ and got outside for some story time and some literacy. With chalk we wrote our sounds and our names in the playground.
As we will be starting to use Seesaw at home we spent some time practicing how to logon, to find an activity, using the tools and clicking the ✅ to submit our work. We all did very well.
As Autumn 🍂 is beginning we have been taking about what the changes are in our environment that lets us know it is Autumn. During our outdoor learning session we collected fallen leaves and sticks. Back in class we very carefully separated all the leaves 🍁 and put them between paper to press them dry. We can’t wait to have a look at them in once they are dry and use them.
Have a lovely weekend!
Cooking 🧑🍳 Club primary 1&2
It was sweet week in cooking club and we made chocolate croissants 🥐.
We had to cut the pastry 🥐 into triangles, roll our chocolate inside the pastry. We then glazed them with milk before we put them in the oven to cook.
Lots of skills were used while making them.
We then had to wait for then to cool before we could taste them.
Primary 1&2 cooking 🧑🍳 club
This week was savoury week at cooking club 🧑🍳
We are all getting very good at following the cooking safety rules.
We had to spread the tomato sauce over our tortilla wrap, we then sprinkled cheese 🧀 and then the toppings 😋 after that we had to cook them in the oven.
Once they were out the oven we go to eat them together in class.
First week of gardening 🧑🌾 club
First week back at gardening club. We got out in the garden to talk about what we need to do during our time at gardening club.
We managed to move a planter and fill in a big dangerous hole and harvested some cabbage 🥬. We are looking forward to getting stuck in to helping to maintain the school garden.
A great first week at gardening club.
Primary 1
This week in Primary 1 we have been looking at different ways to make numbers and talking about why numbers are important, not just in school!
We used tally marks, numicon, ten frames and much more to make our numbers and turn them into posters for our wall.
We ar doing very well in our sounds and it is lovely to here that so many of you are practicing at home.
In music we are working on keeping a beat. To help us with this we used rhythm sticks and boomwackers. We all found this lots of fun.
During play we have been exploring how to use the blocks to build different structures.
Have a lovely weekend.
Cooking 🧑🍳 club with Primary 1&2
The first week of cooking club was a huge success, this was sweet week 😋
We made iced biscuits 🍪 we had to follow the instructions to make sure our biscuits turned out the way we wanted them to.
We used lots of skills, mixing, spreading, measuring and had lots of fun 🤩.
Primary 1
Another fantastic week in Primary 1!
We have all settled into school very well and we are all keen to learn more and play more! We have a lovey friendly classroom, full of helpers.
We have been focusing on article 2, non discrimination for the UNCRC children’s right of the fortnight. We have shown that we have a good understanding that we all have rights.
In PE we enjoyed a great session with some of the P7 buddies, learning lots of new skills, physical skills as well as listening, following instructions and team work.
At outdoor learning we went on a bear 🐻 hunt, we found all the missing teddy bears 🧸
We have been working hard learning a new sound every day and trying to practice using them as much as we can during the school day. We have also been practicing our numbers which we are trying very hard at.
Another super learning week in Primary 1.
Starting Strong in Primary 1
What a fantastic first two weeks in Primary 1. We have all made good friends and have been learning the routines in school. At lunchtime we have done very well sitting independently with our friends and eating our lunch.
Today for the first time we joined in the whole school assembly where we showed great listening skills.
We have enjoyed PE, getting used to going up to the gym hall and following adults instructions as well as being safe.
We have also enjoyed our outdoor learning session, we all enjoyed getting outside and exploring the spaces we have in school.
In class we have been working on sounds and numbers to 5. We have all worked very hard at this.
Primary 1 have also created their class charter, we spoke about our rights and our school values and all agreed we will try our best.
As well as this we have been talking about how we can be a leader, we are following the 7 habits of being effective. We have created our own Leader in me tree in class and had a focus on Habit 1, Be Proactive. We created traffic lights to remind us to Sto and Think and Make Good Choices.
Have a lovely weekend.
