A busy, busy, week!
We have worked hard on our literacy this week, and have continued to work on our letter formations. We have also practiced writing our names.
In our number work we have seen our peers work with numbers up to 20.
We have also worked on pattern recognition and enjoyed water play too!
We also enjoyed being in the Outdoor Classroom and on the Field.
It was lovely to have everyone back in class after the February holiday. We’ve continued our learning in Literacy and Numeracy, enjoyed the winter sunshine in the field and had fun in the new ‘play shed’. Several of us played with the playmobil swimming pool throughout the week. Some of us explored different resources such as pasta and glitter in the sensory area. Some also explored mixing paint in some process art using balloons and enjoyed looking closely at the colours as they mixed. As usual, we had a great time in PE with Mrs McMaster.
We have enjoyed being with our friends again after the break.
Some of us are making great strides in our literacy and have moved onto beginning to work with CVC words and images. We are also continuing to work on our letter formation and practicing writing our name!
In Numeracy, we have worked on putting things and images into size order. We have also focused on replicating matchstick patterns, which has also practiced our fine motor skills.
We have also found time to play with bouncing putty and sensory tuff trays…along with time on the Kick Pitch and Trim Trail!
What a surprise! Arrived at camp today to snow on the ground. Lots of excited campers! After making our beds (the boys were amazing) and then eating a brilliant lunch, we were straight into activity. Crate Climbing and Low Ropes gave everyone the opportunity to challenge themselves and support others. Below are a selection of pics taken my myself (Mr E).
Look out for a further update later!
A lovely week has been enjoyed in Tay.
We can not believe that it is already half term – and half way through our first year at St Mary’s.
This week some of us have begun working on initial CVC words – their associate sounds and pictures.
We have also continued to work on our pattern construction and sequences in our Maths learning.
Busy bees that we are we have also found time to get muddy on the Trim Trail…and then get all cleaned up with sensory fun with bubbles and foam. We enjoyed feeling the textures as they change with water and the wonderful smells!
We wish you all a lovely half term holiday with your families and friends and hope that you join us again after the break to continue to share our journey!
Another quick week in Lomond class…
The coloured rice was definitely a favourite sensory activity. All of the class enjoyed ‘What’s in the Box?’ – inside the box were some shiny cheerleader pom poms. Everyone enjoyed looking at them and shaking them. The children did good waiting, good looking and passed the Pom poms on when they’d had their turn. Well done again to everyone!
At outdoor learning with Miss Nelson this week the children explored play dough. Last week the children explored the seeds in different fruits and then planted the seeds.
The class enjoyed the winter sunshine this week in both the kick pitch and the field. They enjoyed PE as always with Mrs McMaster.

It was lovely to see everyone back after the Christmas holidays. It’s been a busy few weeks… We’ve welcomed our new pupil to our class as well as our new APSW Miss Savage. They’re both settling in so well.
Below are a few recent photos and also some from before Christmas including when Santa visited our classroom!
What a wonderful week in the world of Tay!
We have loved our time outside on the Field…we have run, and run!
We have also made our own purple octopus models…complete with googly eyes! They’re so cute, and we’re so proud!
Our pencil control, in class, is going from strength to strength and we’re loving our Shapes songs…but still love our penguins!
It was ‘A’s’ Birthday! We celebrated with some treats. Thank you again to A’s parents for sending in this delicious cake for us all to share.
Below are photos of some of our experiences over the last wee while. Enjoy!
