@LauriestonP1A Great work and such lovely smiles! 😃😃😃😃

[Laurieston P1 @P1Laurieston]

We finished our day with some activities from the ‘Teaching Children to Listen’ programme. Our four key skills for good listening are...

~sitting still
~staying quiet
~looking at the person who is talking
~listening to all the words

All of this while having great fun!

[Teaching Children to @teachchildren2]

Doing fantastic listening WHILE your parents are watching AND while you are dressed as your favourite word? Amazing work Year 1 👏👏👏🤩🤩🤩
