Writing Targets poster with symbols for the following checklist. I form my letters correctly. I write from left to right. I try to write words using my phonics skills. I use finger spaces between words. I start sentences using a capital letter. I end my sentences with a full stop.

Final term, and a big push on sentence writing. I’m blessed with a class of super keen writers this year so this is not a chore!

We use these symbols as a self assessment checklist. #EduSkyPrimary

A tuff tray with a drawn out section for 1 pences and another for 2 pences. For sorting. Also a space for the rogue pennies.

No artistic flair here. Just a tuff tray task that does the job! We divide our classroom time into teacher led activities, teacher initiated activities and free play. This comes under teacher initiated. We love a bit of sorting. #EduSkyPrimary

What a start to the week! 🤩

An image of a piggy bank filled with one of each British coin. It says Pre topic information gathering WHAT DO YOU ALREADY KNOW? WHAT CAN YOU SEE? WHAT DO YOU WONDER? WHAT CAN YOU DO?

It’s fascinating finding out what children already know (or don’t know) about coins in Primary 1. I’ve seen a huge shift in the last decade on how clued up children are about coins. I’m intrigued to find out this week what my class say about this image. #EduSkyPrimary
