We had a great time in the woods yesterday. The children walked to woods safely holding their partners hand and following instructions beautifully.
When we arrived we went through the woods rules and all of the children demonstrated they understood them by having lots of fun but not breaking any rules, all the staff were very proud of how well the behaved.
There was lots of digging for worms, making camp fires and patterns with natural materials found in the woods.
As you can see from the planner attached in a previous post, our new topic as an early years class is ‘My Family’.
As a class we are looking for a picture of your house and pictures of the children’s families. I would be very grateful if you were able to email any photos to carolyn.robinson@highland.gov.uk.
Thank You
Miss Robinson
Please see attached the early years plan for the next 2 weeks. The children are going to be focusing on a topic about their family! Please click on the attached to see how you can help with their learning 🙂
In Primary 1 we have started to learn about sounds. We’ve been working really hard to try to remember what the different letters look like and what sound they make. We’ve even been having a go at writing them. (They’re a lot trickier than they look).
The children have been working hard to listen closely to the initial sounds in words and sort pictures accordingly!
On Monday we started our weekly Little Dribblers sessions with Ross County. The children all had lots of fun building their teamwork and football skills. I apologise that the photos aren’t great quality, the children were all moving so fast!
In Primary 1 we have been starting to look at the sounds we need to learn to help us read. We were focusing on the ‘s’ sound. The children were hard at work feeding the snake ‘s’ words with Miss O’Brien, practising their writing and making objects that begin with ‘s’ out of play-doh!
Miss Robinson has been very impressed at how quickly the new Primary 1s have settled into life in the ‘big’ school.
On Tuesday morning they all came into school like they had been doing it for years. They have all worked really hard to learn the routines of school, even though staying in until 3 o’clock is a very long time!
