Dear parents and carers,

Click on the Homework menu at the top of the page and select Homework Week Beginning 28.9.20. There are suggested activities for Literacy, Numeracy & Maths and Other Curricular Areas. Homework will be added again next week and you can access it from the same menu. If you need assistance please contact the class teacher via email (See “What you need to know about P2” menu).

 

We have asked that you send us your child’s work so that we can provide feedback. Please check back on the Primary 2 Glow page tomorrow, Tuesday 29th September, for a “Watch this video” to help you access your child’s own personal Glow page.

 

 

 

 

We have been working hard to get everyone settled into Primary 2 building strong and happy relationships with each other after having been away from school for so long. We feel it’s now time to begin thinking about how to support learning in class at home with some homework activities.

We are awaiting a delivery of new homework jotters that we can issue to you to write ideas down. Hopefully, this will allow us to send them home at the beginning of next week. Due to the current circumstances these jotters will be KEPT AT HOME and the class teacher will NOT collect them or mark them in the traditional way. If you wish to share your child’s work you can email them or upload a photograph directly to your child’s personal Glow page. More information on how to do this will follow.

In the meantime, we would like to share that the classes are revising the following:-

Literacy

– alphabet sounds and the joined phonemes sh, ch, th, ng.

– handwriting formation with a focus on joining sh, ch, th, ng.

– using phonic knowledge and sounding out unfamiliar words in reading activities.

– writing sentences and remembering the core targets: use a capital letter, finger spaces between words and a full stop.

SUGGESTED ACTIVITIES

– Watch this video.
