Hello!
Welcome to Term 2 in P2C!! We truly have had such a busy term and can’t wait to show you all what we have been up to!
Term 2: Overview
We started off Term 2 by looking at toys from the past! We had great fun at separating toys from the past from toys from the present.
We had a great time exploring the history of Mr. Potato Head! We started by looking at how he was created back in 1952 and then how much had changed over time. The best part was when the children got to create their very own versions of Mr. Potato Head from the past!
Just look at their faces! 🙂
We explored toys from the past by making our own toys. We made:
- Rag dolls
- Robots
- Ball and cup
- Jack in the box
The children enjoyed the crafts and learning all about how they were made and played with in the past!
The children then took their learning into their own hands by completing a homework task about their favourite toy from the past! I was so proud and impressed with their listening and talking skills!!!
In maths we have been exploring addition and subtraction focusing on different strategies to help us with our learning.
The children enjoy the active side to maths which keep learning fun and engaging!
In literacy we have been continuing our phonemes. P2C have been having lots of fun using active literacy activties to help them learn their new phonemes.
In term 2 we have covered ‘ee’, ‘oo’, ‘ck’, ‘ai’, ‘oy’, ‘oa’ and ‘qu’.
Primary 2 thoroughly enjoyed the lead up to ‘Killieween’ and our Halloween party! The costumes were FABULOUS !
