This week, we also learned about local organisations who do different things to help our community. 🥰 one of those was Inshes Church which lead to building churches and temples during free-play. #Teamwork #problemsolving #discussion #cooperation

We have the perfect activity to keep your little troopers busy at home as the weather gets colder. We've just announced the Autumn/Winter programme of our All-Together online workshops. Find out more here: ow.ly/cuf750POkvi

Check us out...for pen disco today we have moved from pre writing patterns to an actual letter! 👏 #progress #phonics #motorskills 🕺🎵🖊 Drakies Primary

We enjoyed exploring Numicon and tens frames for patterns to 10 plus some adding with conkers. For the p sound we painted a pumpkin pink/purple (after some colour mixing), pushed pegs into it and made the letter p and a p word (!) out of pasta. #phonics #numeracy #play Drakies Primary

We packed a lot into Monday this week! P2’s learned the “air” sound, P1’s learned the “t” sound and we used Google maps to get a sense of our surroundings and housing types before our walk to the church on Thursday! #STEAMchallenge #MapReading #TinfoilTigers #Teamwork

Our first chromebook buddies session of the year with our lovely P1s! The P7s demonstrated how to log on and play Interland. This is a game that teaches the importance of internet safety. We can’t wait for our next session! Mrs Henstridge and P1

We have been learning about being a good friend. This week we had to create a friendship recipe. #hwb #sensoryplay #IDL #Markmaking
