Learning Trio letters were sent home on Friday, please fill in and return to school ASAP. Thank you.
On Monday, the children will also be bringing home a Nurture task. Please see the post below for more information.
Homework
Reading: Children will bring their book in their book bag and the pages to be read will be written in their green reading record. Please sign this to evidence reading has been completed. Some children will come home with a little slip of green words, these words should be learned to support their progress in reading.
Sounds: We are learning qu, ou, and oi this week.
Burns poetry: The children will perform their chosen poetry to the class on Tuesday. Please encourage your child to learn their poem with lots of enthusiasm! Those who recite their poem in class will be considered to be in the poetry assembly – there is only one child per class! I can’t wait to hear them all.
P.E – Wednesday with Miss Simpson.
Reminder: School will be closed on Thursday due to strike action.

P1 are looking for some things to build up our loose parts area. We are looking for curtain rings, clean glass jars, kitchen roll tubes, buttons and feathers. Loose parts are wonderful for fostering children’s imagination and creativity. Please see the article below if you would like more information on loose parts! https://www.playscotland.org/resources/print/Play-Scotland-Loose-Parts-Leaflet.pdf?plsctml_id=10934
