Monday 31st May – Primary 1

05/31/202105/31/2021 rmpstaff

A big THANK YOU to Miss Finlayson and Mr Madine for organising a super fun Health Week last week. This week we will be continuing on that theme, learning about types of food/diets (of human AND dinosaur) and the importance of sleep, as well as writing up our JASS adventure.

Homework

Maths – We will be revising TIME – focussing on the calendar year. Try listening and singing along to this song at home or play this game to see if you can rearrange the months.
Reading – This will be our last week of reading homework before we need to audit the books ready for next year. Please, if you have any school books hiding at home, we would love to have them back at school!
Education City – Very soon, your next class teacher will be having a look at your scores, so make sure you have completed your tasks…
Tricky words – See if you can watch this video and shout out the word when Miss Copeland shows them to you slowly or if you want a challenge, see if you can do it quickly!
Sounds – Try using these flashcards to check your vowel digraphs (ee, igh, oo) and consonant digraphs (ch, sh, th). Do you know them all?

Sports Day

Primary 1 had great fun competing in their sports day. We participated in our house groups and our scores will be added up along with the rest of the school. Best of luck!

Outdoor learning at Johnstone Terrace Nature Reserve

We had so much fun at Johnstone Terrace that we forgot to take any photos! Here is a little snap of us having a closer look at some of the things we wanted to explore a little closer when we got back to school.

JASS – Adventure – Treasure Hunt!

WOW! Primary 1 were BRILLIANT at finding clues, solving the riddles and exploring our local area. I didn’t realise we had so many trees in our school play ground. Did you? They also worked so well as a team, turning the pieces of the jigsaw until it revealed a picture of Roary the Allosaurus from Lapworth Museum of Geology! We were super excited that the treasure hunt did actually end with TREASURE!

Wake up, shake up!

A big thank you to our Primary 6 Buddies who led an excellent socially distanced Wake Up, Shake Up for us on Tuesday morning. What a great start to the day!

The weather forecast is predicted to be sunny at the beginning of this week. Make sure to bring a sun hat and put on your sun cream before coming to school HOWEVER we always recommend bringing a rain coat in your bag as the weather is notoriously changeable.

Keep up the great work, team!

Miss Copeland, Mrs McGlashan and Mrs B

Nursery Blog

Fantastic Friday!

05/28/2021 rmpstaff

Welcome back to Fantastic Friday, where we showcase the excellent work taking place in the nursery each week. This week at nursery we have been focussing on the story Oliver’s Fruit Salad which has lead to discussing and tasting lots of different types of fruits. We have talked about all the different fruits we know, where we get them from and how they grow. We played a fun game where we identified different fruit by touch and described what they felt like. We have also been celebrating health week with the help of the Primary fives who recorded a special workout video for us to do in the mornings, which has been so much fun! Thank you so much Primary five!

We have been using lots of different materials to print, cut and stick pictures of our favourite fruits and have been showing off our amazing drawing and writing skills. We have been washing fruit and veg in our water tray and exploring their textures and scents. We are still discussing summer and have been playing lots of fun imaginary beach games and talking about how we like to spend our time in the sunshine. We have been very busy builders in our construction area and have created some amazing structures that we have all enjoyed playing with. We have been playing fun food board games and helped to make some yummy cakes for our snack. We were very excited to see that our caterpillars have come out of their cocoons and are now beautiful butterflies, we had lots of fun watching them fly around the nets and we have released it safely out into the garden.

We have enjoyed playing outside in the garden; running cafes in our mud kitchen, building bridges and paths with our loose parts, creatively decorating our garden and splashing in the water tray. We practised our running, hopping and jumping with some fun races and displayed some brilliant gross motor skills and some great teamwork! We also enjoyed our fun adventure on our forest schools trip.

Our pre-schoolers are continuing their transition to Primary one; reading The Smeds and the Smoos, filling in their passports and having fun playing in the school playground!

Please keep sending us your lovely pictures of all the fun work you have been doing at home on the Learning Journals and contact us if you need any help to do this. We hope you have a great weekend!
