We have quickly settled back into school and enjoyed our Scots language focus. Well done to everyone who recited or read a Scots poem in class. We have also been learning to solve word problems in numeracy and use days and months to record time in English and French. Here are a few of our highlights so far:
I have learned that the Earth spins around the Sun. Each spin takes 24 hours and Earth takes 365 days to travel all the way round the Sun. (C)
365 days is a year. (J)
I have learned a lot of new jumps in PE. (T)
I like learning yoga because it helps me feel calm. (A)

We have lots to look forward to:
I am looking forward to performing our show with the P2s, P3s and P4s. (T)
I love Maths and I am looking forward to multiplication and division. (T)
I would like to learn about Chinese New Year. (M)

We are beginning to plan the show and we are very excited about performing to our families and friends on Wednesday 11^th March. We hope to see you then!

We would like to wish everyone a happy new year!

In numeracy we have been learning to use arrays to help us with our times tables. We have been learning to count in 2s, 3s, 4s and 5s. In maths, with Miss Hendrie, we have been learning about measure, days of the week, months of the year and the four different seasons.

We have been learning lots of different ways to make the ‘igh’ sound. This week we have been practicing making ‘i_e’ with the magic e. We have been learning to write rhyming poems and Scottish words. In art we have made Scotty dogs and Puffins after reading ‘The Wee Lassie Who Swallowed a Midgie.’

In our topic we are learning about the human body. So far we have learned a lot about the different bones in the body. We have learned that the jaw is the biggest bone in your face. We are going to be learning more about the stomach and other organs in the body.

From P2M!

“We have been learning about weather. We built big snowmen and little snowmen outside to see which ones would melt first.  The big ones lasted the longest.”

“The rain melted the snow away”.

“We made rain cloud pictures using water and paint”.

“ I liked making our favourite weather scene”.

“We have been learning about odd and even numbers”.

“We count up in twos for even numbers”.

“The odd numbers don’t have a partner to pair up with.”

“ Our sounds have two letters.  They are tricky to write”.

“The ng sound is in lots of words”.
