The children absolutely loved the performance which was just fabulous. We now all have Hakuna Mutata in our heads along with the Circle of Life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In literacy<\/strong> this week we have been learning about the letter yY and using construction and role play to build yachts, shared yogurt and even had yaks on our farm! The children have been preparing and writing sentences with more independence. \u00a0Our play activities are helping\u00a0 to develop some tricky words and as part of our homework for next week your child will be writing these tricky words in a pyramid format . As our reading texts become more challenging please encourage your child to break the longer words into syllables to help them decode these more complex words in the Rising Stars reading books.\u00a0 At the moment we are having difficulty gaining \u00a0online access to the reading books from this scheme. Thanks for your support with reading and helping your child to gain confidence and fluency. Your children may try to find our key phonemes at home, in books, or when out an about. Hope you spot some.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In maths,<\/strong> we are learning to count on to find the missing number in our calculations now. and extending our skills in addition. \u00a0We are at the moment linking counting on to 20 to counting back from 20 before the introduction of subtraction. We are gradually moving from concrete items to count and add to more abstract resources such as using ten frames and counters. Counting quickly in 2s, 5s and 10s. Please see Education City for some activities to support our class work.<\/p>\n<p>This week for health and wellbeing we will have being exploring the children\u2019s understanding of how to keep safe online. We began this week with a story about a little Penguin that got a tablet for his birthday. This story has highlighted for the children when to alert adults to content or pop ups that appear to seek help in tackling any potential scams and the importance of keeping their identity safe.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks again for supporting your children with their homework tasks and have a good weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Wishing you a lovely relaxing week ahead.<\/p>\n<p>Mrs Carey<\/p>\n<table class=\"visualLinkTable\" role=\"group\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" aria-label=\"Primary 2\">\n<tbody>\n<tr class=\"visualLinkImageRow\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n<td align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sway.office.com\/2lh56rbvggZTj2rf?ref=email\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"visualLinkImage\" src=\"https:\/\/eus-www.sway-cdn.com\/\/sway\/v1.0\/2lh56rbvggZTj2rf\/thumbnailImage?imageId=opk7iT-u2D6wFp&amp;width=600&amp;height=180&amp;isPreview=false\" width=\"600\" height=\"180\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"visualLinkTitleRow\" aria-labelledby=\"visualLinkTitle\">\n<td class=\"visualLinkTitleCell\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sway.office.com\/2lh56rbvggZTj2rf?ref=email\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><span class=\"visualLinkTitle\" dir=\"ltr\">Primary 2<\/span><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"visualLinkButtonRow\">\n<td align=\"center\">\n<table border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sway.office.com\/2lh56rbvggZTj2rf?ref=email\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Go to this Sway<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday we had a real treat when we went to the dress rehearsal of the Lion King at the community centre.
