Good afternoon and welcome to our update about our learning.
We have been very busy, learning our Scots Poem, and thank for all your support to help them learn this at home to. I have been super impressed with their performances and loving the actions.
As part of our Scotland theme, we have been learning about who Robert Burns was and why he was famous, this week. We carried out a reading task using our reading strategies to help us learn some more facts about Robert Burns, we also learned how to make notes from watching a clip about Robert Burns too.
We have tried some foods (for those of us who wished too), and learnt a Scots song using our body as the percussion.
We have continued to learn about Scotland, finding out about the main cities and some of the famous landmarks. We even designed Rabbie a new kilt.
In Literacy we continue to learn our new phonemes, and are using our say, make break, write strategy. We have been reading books to develop our fluency and answer questions to show our understanding.
In Numeracy
P1 have started to explore number families up to 5 and what two numbers add together to make 5.
We have also been using a number line to add or take away 1 or 2 more within 20 .
P2 have been exploring and learning number families(bonds) for 11 & 12 and we have been rounding off our learning about place value, building and breaking (partitioning) the numbers into tens and units.
We hope you have enjoyed our wee update, we have been very busy and having lots of fun.
Mrs Mooney and P1/2
