Gladigator Visit

Primary 1a really enjoyed Gladigator's visit to the school. We learned even more about how to keep our teeth healthy and clean. We told him what we do to brush our teeth in school every day.

Gladigator was so impressed with the things we knew, he set up his inflatable run for us to play on - we had a great time!! Miss McCabe was even judging our dancing as we waited in the line!

Term 3 Special Topic.....

Room 1 has been learning all about the 'Journey of a Letter'. We have watched clips on the internet, tried some letter writing, addressed envelopes and set up a post office in our breakout space. We are having so much fun! Miss McCabe was very impressed with our letter writing!

In our cooperative trios, we had a sequencing challenge to complete. The members of our trios had to cut out pictures, sequence them and talk about the journey step on each picture - all against the timer! Zak, Bryan and Robyn did extremely well to be the first team to finish!

What made us set up a post office????













Term 3 Special Topic.....

Rooms 1, 2 and 3 are busy working on a very special topic this term. We are so excited about unveiling all our hard work at a special open evening in March!

As part of our term 3 topic, Primary 1a has been learning about and tasting some Scottish foods. Mrs Gray helped us to spread butter on traditional Scottish oatcakes - we had them with Scottish Cheddar on top! Yum!

Why are we tasting Scottish foods????

Buddy Visit

We invited our buddies to hear all about our book study work. Using the books to help, we retold the story of 'What the Ladybird Heard'. We showed them the masks we had made, and talked to them about the writing we had been doing.
We loved having our buddies come to visit!

What the Ladybird Heard

Primary 1a are busy working on a Literacy Topic based around our BookBug gift 'What the Ladybird Heard'. It is a fantastic book!

We have been using the book in class and at home. With our friends in rooms 2 and 3, we have made animal masks and maps. At writing time we have been learning about alliteration! Room 1 has used the words from the book to do lots of writing as well!

Next week, our primary 7 buddies are coming to visit to see all our hard work. Look at the lovely invites we have made!

Our First Golden Time!

After a relaxing Christmas break; room 1 has started term 3 in our new building with enthusiasm! We absolutely love our new school! It is exciting using all the new learning spaces and resources.

Our new classroom is just lovely - it is very big and bright! We also have a fantastic breakout space outside our class that we share with rooms 2, 3 and 4. It is great!!

Look at the pictures below of our first golden-time in our new school - we had lots of fun! We can now share golden-time with our friends in the other classes! The breakout space means that Miss McCabe, Mrs Ayres and Miss Williams can put out even more activities for us to choose from!
