P1M have had a great start to their education. All of the children have enjoyed their first week and have very quickly picked up our classroom routines. We have participated in lots of different activities this week and we have enjoyed getting to know each other.
We started our first topic which is a book study. We are using the collection of ‘Harry and the Dinosuars’ books. The children have really enjoyed this and we have lots of fun activities based on these stories planned for next week – watch this space.
We are working on holding our pencil correctly and tracing and completing some simple patterns. Why don’t you practise holding your pencil correctly and drawing something at home?
We have been learning some rhymes to help us with number formation. This is something you could practise at home too. For the number 2, our rhyme is: “half a heart says “I love you”, add a line, now I’ve made the number 2.” Add the class favourite for number 3: “around the tree, around the tree, now I’ve made the number 3.”
I hope you all have a lovely weekend.
Remember to bring in your photographic approval forms – as soon as all children have completed these we can post photos on the blog!
Welcome boys and girls! It has been lovely to see you all settle into school life with confidence and big smiles. I know you will like it here 😉
Mrs Purdie.
