What a wonderful week in Primary 1. The children have been enjoying relaxation time in class so this week we tried some yoga! They followed the instructions carefully and practised slow thoughtful breathing throughout. We look forward to trying some more next week!

In Numeracy we have continued to practise subtraction and found some useful ways to record our findings. The children have been exploring the different language we can use when 'taking away'. For example: 'One less than 13 is 12' or '8 teddy bears take away two teddy bears is 6.'

In Gym we worked individually and in groups to create routines using different travelling movements. Some of our more adventurous routines involved sliding, rolling and 'jump spins!'

The children are working on being able to talk about their learning and how they know they have been successful in their gym lesson. For example, when practising jumping the children were able to describe 'what a good jump looks like'.
