Welcome to P1I
WELCOME TO P1 with Mrs Carson and Mrs Ferrin
Primary One children have settled in wonderfully this term. We have loved getting to know them, and hope they’ve loved getting to know us.
A big thank you to parents for all your support so far. We really appreciate it!
Our topic this term is called 'All About Me'
We will be learning all about;
- Families - Who makes up our family
- How I have changed - a timeline for your child
- Memories - creating a memory box of special items they have had since birth
- Different cultures
- Friendships - linked with the NSPCC programme
- Babies - Caring for babies
- Our emotions
We love learning all about our families and how we are all different.
We decided it is so much better to be different than to all be the same!
We really are off to a colourful new year!
We have enjoyed using stories like 'Elmer' and 'The Colour Monster' to help us learn about colours and our emotions.
Buddies
Each of our P1 children has been given a P7 buddy to look after them in the playground at break time. They came down and played with us on our first day in Rosetta and continue to play with us every Monday and Wednesday. I think P7 enjoy this as much as the P1s.
Dinner Hall Visit
Our dinner ladies were so kind and made us a special break for our first visit to the dinner hall. We had milkshake and iced biscuits - delicious!
Our Autumn Walk
We had a fantastic time on our Autumn walk to Cherryvale on Thursday 18th September.
We looked at all the beautiful trees and discussed the variety of colours that they turn during this season. Our P7 buddies came with us and helped us collect and identify all sorts of Autumn treasure.
The P7's also joined us in the playpark where we had lots of fun on all the equipment. The staff included!
Writing our Names
This is a very tricky skill for us in P1, but we are practising as often as we can! Our rainbow rainclouds are a fun way to practise our letter formation. Make sure you are practising often at home as well!
