Numeracy begins with an activity in our messy maths jotter. You can choose between ‘Green for go’ or ‘Pink for think’. Use the numbers below, add two and 5 to each number. Remember to use things like a whiteboard, number line, cubes and so on to help you work out which is which.

Pink for think

18 98 37
25 13 68

Today I have attached a PowerPoint for you to look at all about Mrs Odd and Mr Even. When you have finished looking at it you could create a world for Mr Odd and one for Mrs Even.

Below I have attached some activities for you to try. You do not need to do them all. Remember no work is posted tomorrow so you might do some today and some tomorrow.

Literacy

Thursday is our story writing day. Today I would like you to write a story all about elephants. Perhaps you go on a trip and find some wild elephants, do they need your help? Perhaps you are there to make a documentary all about them now that you know some elephant facts. When your story is finished you could draw a picture to show what happened in your story.

When writing your story remember

  • Capital letters and full stops
  • Finger spaces
  • Think about the size of the letters, are they tall, small or do they go under the line?
  • Make sure your writing goes from the beginning of the line to the end.
  • Check to see if your story has a beginning, middle and end.
  • Read over your story to check that it makes sense.

 

Today you should also be revising your tricky words and phoneme. Normally we would have a spelling test on a Friday, perhaps this is something you would like to do tomorrow?

 

Expressive arts

Today I would like you to draw an elephant. To do this, go to YouTube and type in great artist mom – elephant. Remember to pause as you watch to give you time to draw each part. You could also include a background. You might like to add colour to your picture, you could do this with paint, pens, pencils or whatever you have at home. Remember that you are the artist and it is up to you to decide how you want your final  picture to look.

P1 Santa visit

Leave a comment

Santa visited P1 yesterday. Although he was socially distanced, the children still enjoyed seeing Santa, asking him questions and receiving a gift.

Santa checked that all the children in P1 were on the good list, and reminded the children that they must go to bed early on Christmas Eve. He also reminded them not to forget to leave a little treat for him and his reindeer.  🎅🏻 🍪 🥛 🥕

Monday 7th December Primary 2 Numeracy

Leave a comment

Monday 7th December Numeracy

Let’s begin today by showing your grown-up that you can count in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s. To help you do this you could sing along to the Scratch garden or Singing Walrus videos on Youtube.

Our focus in numeracy recently has been time. This week please continue to focus on o’clock and half past. Remember to show your grown up these times digitally. Of course if you can show other times then let your grown up see quarter past or quarter to.

 

Today I have uploaded a calendar for the month of December. Can you add some events that your family might take part in or events that happen in school? You might want to include the time it takes as well. (Perhaps you put up Christmas light between five o’clock and six o’clock on the 5th of December).Then you could give your calendar to a grown up at home and ask them some questions.

 

For example

On what day do I sledging?

When is Christmas jumper day?

On what day do I make a gingerbread house?

When do I put my Christmas tree up?
