Term 1
Piet Mondrian art appreciation. We looked at some famous artwork and tried to recreate our own version using squares and rectangles. We hope you like the finished product!
Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas tree... we really enjoyed making our Christmas trees out of paper plates. We can’t wait to display them for everyone in school to see. 🎄🎄🎄
Christmas has arrived early in Room 1 - we have been making Christmas cards for people at home. We have been learning about 2D shapes, so we used shapes to make our cards. We hope you like them!
Moving Taskboard in Room 1. We have been working really hard during our Literacy times, learning how to read and how to use and write with our Jolly Phonics sounds. Have a little look at the activities we have been doing.

Walk around our school
We have been learning about people that help us in school as part of our topic this half term called “Me, Myself and My School”. We went for a walk around school and we were very excited when we bumped into Mr Gourley and Mr Hill!
Outdoor Learning - Leaf Rubbings
We collected leaves and then did some beautiful leaf rubbings.
Our First Art Walk
We walked around the classroom looking at all the beautiful work created by our friends. We got to tell everyone who’s art we liked the most and why.
Taskboard - we have been busy learning how to use our scissors, our pencils and our pincer grip!
Outdoor Play - we made portraits!
Outdoor learning. We headed outside and wrote our names. We found twigs, leaves and other things outside and used them to write our names. We also wrote our names in chalk. We had a brilliant time!
Pattern and not pattern. We have been learning this week all about things that have a pattern. Maybe you could have a look in your house for things that have a pattern?
Making apple crumble. We made apple crumble with apples that Mrs Carruthers brought into school. We weighed out the ingredients, followed the recipe and cooked a delicious crumble in the airy fryer in our classroom. It was yummy! 🍎 🍏
Loose Parts Play - we have been experimenting, investigating and using our imaginations to create different things with loose parts. These can be anything from pine cones, to keys, feathers or shells. We had some weird and wonderful creations this week, including ice creams and castles and lots of boys and girls at one table practised balancing objects. Why not try playing with some loose parts at home?
Our First PE Lesson
Circle time. We had our first circle time in P1. We introduced ourselves, told everyone our names and if we are a boy or a girl. We all waited very patiently for our turn and listened well when our friends were talking.
