Listening LIVE

Today P3B listened LIVE to Tracey Corderoy reading Shifty McGifty and Slippery Sam .  Then the illustrator, Steven Lenton, demonstrated how to draw a cartoon character.   Here are some examples.  Next week we are going to use our pictures to help us re-tell the stories we listened to and our next step is to write our own stories…http://www.bbc.co.uk/events/efrrzchttps://blogs.glowscotland.org.uk/wl/uphallprimary/2016/10/27/scottish-book-trust-authors-live/

P1M are currently learning from an author and illustrator duo, Tracey Corderoy and Steven Lenton.

Tracey and Steven are talking about their hilarious picture book series, Shifty McGifty and Slippery Sam. We have tuned in to hear a reading of Shifty McGifty and Slippery Sam and are learning how to draw the characters in the live draw-along!

Paired Reading in Primary 1S

This morning we shared a book with our reading partners. We took it in turns to tell the story using not words but pictures. We know what a book might be about by looking at the cover and that helps us choose one we think we might like. Here we are enjoying our books!

Roman Mosaics

This afternoon we have been using the internet to find out about different roman mosaic designs like the ones below, which were our favorite. We enjoyed creating our designs, laying these out on our mosaic boards and gluing these down. We worked with our peers to help one another to complete our designs. Now we need to use grout to seal in the gaps between our tiles.

Keep an eye on our class blog for our finished designs!
