Hello there Primary 2B,

This week we are going to continue working hard on the lead up to the holidays. We are also going to start our new literacy rotations. We are an excellent class for being organised and by the end of the week I think our rotations will be working very well!

We are going to look at the feeling “excited,” and discuss what makes us excited and how we calm ourselves if we get too excited. We are also nearing the end of our Weather topic and will be looking at waterproof materials and extreme weather this week. We will also be conducting some experiments. If possible, could you please send in any big bottles you have spare (1litre or more, if you can) to help us with our experiments.

Home learning activities

If you can spare another bottle you can create a rain gauge to use to measure rain fall over the week. Below is some information on how to do this.

We have been revising the “ch” phoneme this week. Please find below this weeks phonetic words and common words.
