P1 to P3 Blog

This year 7 P1 children started and joined a class with P2 and P3, making 18 in total. The topics studied have been ‘Weather’ and ‘The Rescue Services’. In line with the Revised Curriculum a great deal of learning took place through structured play, (practical activities to enhance learning by encouraging creative thinking and social skills which the children understand to be playing).

Numeracy and literacy play a large part in the curriculum and the children have already learnt a number of different phonics to help them with their reading and writing. Much of this learning is done through practical activities and ICT.
