Going for Green

We are now following our school's positive behaviour policy. We have a picture of traffic lights on our wall with everyone's names on the green light. If the children's behaviour is not what it should be, their name is moved to a yellow light, and the child is given a target and support to get back to green as soon as possible. Children who stay on green all week will bring home a very special sticker every Friday.

Look how well we are doing!

Our Golden Tree is filling up with leaves! Everyone in the class has collected lots of stickers, and the children have all earned a golden leaf. Soon we will have 2 golden leaves each! What a super class primary 1 are!

Active Learning

Here are some pictures of a few of the activities we do during literacy lessons. We try different multisensory activities to read, write and use our sounds.

Forming letters with playdough.

 

Writing letters in shaving foam.

Some very busy workers - look at the concentration!

Taking turns to read words and match them with pictures on the interactive white board.

The Golden Tree in the Golden Garden

In Primary 1, the children decided that we should follow some Golden Rules, and chose what they should be. When they are good at keeping the Golden Rules, Mrs Sutherland and Mrs MacCairney give the children stickers. Each child has made a flower to keep their stickers on, and these flowers are in the Golden Garden, beside the Golden Tree. When the children get 10 stickers, a Golden leaf with their name will be added to the tree. Keep checking our blog to see the leaves appearing on the tree!

Welcome Poster

We made a poster for our classroom door, and thought about what should be on it. We decided to put on a photograph of all the children, and some of us thought of things to say, which Mrs Sutherland added to the picture.
