Week beg 27.11.23

Dear Room 2, 

I hope you all had a lovely weekend, I know there were parties on and it was nice to see some of you at the Christmas Fayre! 

This week, along with revising all the sounds and words we have already learnt, we are learning the sounds, 'd' and 'r' and the words 'I', 'is' and 'the'. 
In Numeracy we are learning about the number stories of 5,6,7 and 8. This is where we learning all the different ways that different numbers can add up to one number. For example, 0+5,1+4,2+3 all add up to 5. 

This is our last week of homework until the Christmas holidays, but feel free to still revise all of the sounds/words and numbers should you see fit. The children tend to forget quite a bit over the holidays so as much practise would be great! 

Many thanks, 
Mrs Donald

Swimming - Wednesday 29th November

Hi Primary 7, 

Please rememeber that you start your swimming lessons on Wednesday 29th November this week! You will be attending swimming for the next 12 weeks. 

If you haven't already brought in your £1 for the locker, please bring this in ASAP! 

Remember to bring your towel, swimming costume/trunks and goggles (if you need them). Don't bring any shower gel or shampoo as we won't have time for washing hair etc. If you have longer hair it might be an idea to wear your hair in plaits or up in a high bun perhaps. 

Thanks,
Mrs Duncan & Miss Magee

Room 1 this week

Good morning,
I hope you had a lovely weekend.
This is our last week of homework before the holidays.

In literacy we will be learning the sounds 'd' and 'r' and the common words 'I, is, the'.  These are all coming home on card to add to the sounds and words previously sent home.  Please try to revise these together regularly as this helps with our blending work and reading in class.  A written formation sheet is also coming home today and there are tasks on Education City.

In numeracy we are continuing to work on addition stories within 10.  There are also games set on Education City.

On Friday we will be going to the school library so please return your library book in order to choose a new one.

On Friday the Primary 7's are running their snack cafe before playtime with items costing between 5p and 50p.  If you would like your child to buy something please could you send in money in a purse, wallet or envelope to prevent pupils losing money as they are unsure of which coins they have with them.

Today I have also sent home a pack containing all of the work your child has chosen to display on our good work wall since the beginning of Primary 1.  Some are more full than others as some pupils prefer to bring home their work on the day so please do not worry if your child has not put much on the wall it just means they wanted to show it to you as soon as possible!  This pack is for you to keep.

Please contact the office if you have any questions.

Have a great week,
Mrs Stevenson
