After receiving a very special letter from the dragon on Tuesday, we decided to write letters back to let the Dragon know we were going to help him rebuild Fairyland! We posted our letters in the special D- Mail post box for the Dragon to collect. We hope he writes another letter to us very soon!

Finding the magic beans!

Primary 1 went on a magic bean hunt in the grassy pitch! We found over 100 beans and had lots of fun in the process. We then decided that we would quite like to plant our own magic bean and watch it grow into a beanstalk.

Primary 1 Measure!

We have been learning about tall and short/big and small in measure. Everyone in the class arranged themselves in height order in the playground. Afterwards we made tall and short beanstalks from play dough for Fairyland. We then measured our beanstalks using cubes. The longest beanstalk belonged to Paula at a staggering 39 cubes long! We drew pictures of our beanstalks in our maths diary afterwards.

Mason is the tallest in the class and Lilly is the smallest.

Dragon Visit!

Primary 1 were very excited this morning to discover a glitter trail in their classroom after playtime! The trail led to a letter from the Friendly Dragon asking for our help. We decided we would help all the Fairyland creatures by building Fairyland in our classroom. We drew pictures and wrote sentences on our whiteboards about how we wanted to help the dragon. Then in the afternoon we read the story of Jack and the Beanstalk and we decided to create our own beanstalk with leaves and magic beans!
