Our Nativity was fantastic!!!!! Isla M says that we all did really well – we said our lines correctly and we sang and played the tambourines…….. Mrs Carlyle is very proud of us!!!!!!!!!!!!

On Wednesday we had a special visitor – Baby Honor.  We asked her Mummy lots of questions about what she needs and compared those needs to the needs of Baby Jesus in the stable.

Hello Everybody,

We have our first birthdays in P1 today: Happy Birthday Alyssia and Logan!!!!!!

The sounds we have been learning this week are: j,v,y…… there are a lot of children in P1 who have these sounds in their name

We picked out our favourite character from the story ‘Where’s my Mummy?’ and we gave a reason why they were our favourite.

Number work:

• Esmae says we’ve been filling in number ladders up to 20.
• We have been thinking about how we put food into 2 groups: healthy and unhealthy.

We have been also been learning more about autumnal animals and how they sleep for a long time ….. they hibernate.

We also had our teeth checked by the Dentist who said we have nice, shiny teeth.  Mrs Carlyle is proud of us!!!

Have a lovely holiday!!

We have been learning sounds b and u this week.  These sounds are confusing some of us like b and d and u and n.  We need to be careful to put them the right way round.

We are able to write lots of numbers and make collections and Ben K says we need  to be really careful not to put 6 upside down because it’ll become a 9……  Daniel pointed about zero and the sound o.

Our class photograph is in the East Lothian Courier this week – we really like it!!!! Hope you do……
