Writing

AN UNEXPECTED LETTER FROM THE NORTH POLE created huge excitement on Tuesday morning.  The letter detailed:

 

 

 

HELP WANTED!

Primary 2K…

Santa’s workshop is currently accepting applications for full time elves.

Applications should have appearance and personalities detailed and be willing to relocate to the North Pole.

Making toys is a plus and spectacular singing is required.

Santa’s workshop offers an excellent package including rooms, unlimited cookies and hot chocolate.

Interested applicants should send a letter to:

Santa Claus

100 Holly Jolly Lane

North Pole

122511

 

 

 

The pupils were then challenged to write a character description of their Elf using lots of adjectives. Ask us what an adjective is. Miss Keith was very impressed with our adjectives and our new challenge is to start sentences with different openers instead of using ‘I’.

 

Phonics 

OI or OY? Can you help us learn the difference at home?

 

Maths 

We have been learning how to write out the two times table.

Some of our big maths questions have challenged us and we have had to think about our 3 times table!

Please cut out the blue learn it flash cards. Some pupils have been practising a lot and are managing 17 big maths questions in 30 seconds – HOW FANTASTIC!

 

Topic! SANTA’S WORKSHOP 

 

In our ‘creative world’ – we have been creating bags from 2D shapes. We had to plan, evaluate and then alter our designs.

 

We have also been learning how to make pompoms. Some of us have made little animals with Christmas hats! We can’t wait to show you all our creations on our selling day. (Date to follow)

 

Enjoy your weekend P2K. Looking forward to hearing your weekend news on Monday.
