Hello Primary 2B,<\/p>\n
Hope we all enjoyed our weekend and are all set for the new week. This week we will be starting our new topic – food and farming. Ask your family what they know about farming. They might even know someone who is a farmer. This week we will be exploring different technology that farmers use such as, combine harvesters. We are focusing on our addition strategies as well this week and last week we were counting 10 from any number and with a bit more practice we will be super at this.<\/p>\n
I made a mistake on the last blog post about the new days for reading books. Very sorry! Biff will get new reading books on Monday and Thursday. Kipper and Floppy will both get new reading books on Tuesday and Friday. Remember to practice the books at home and always put them back in your bag as we use them every day. Ask your child to retell the story and quiz them to find certain words within the book for an extra challenge.<\/p>\n
We have been looking at the “ee” phoneme this week. A bit of a nicer phoneme than last week as we have lots of words with “ee.” Here are this weeks words for the groups and common words that need to be practised.<\/p>\n

Go on a noun hunt. You can use a camera or your own eyes. Try and find 10 nouns. REMEMBER if you can photograph something it is probably a noun.<\/p>\n Could I also ask for a favour? If you can spare them, could you possibly send in the cardboard part of your kitchen roll and toilet roll when they are done with them over the next few weeks. Only if you have them to spare and are not needing them for something yourself. Please don’t buy extra, just if you can spare it. We will be using them to make adding machines and will need some in December for Christmas crafts. Thanks very much in advance.<\/p>\n Hope you all have a fantastic week! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n Miss Baillie<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hello Primary 2B, Hope we all enjoyed our weekend and are all set for the new week.
