Literacy

This week we continued to focus on the phoneme i_e  and practised  some diacritical marking to identify all the sounds in our spelling words.  P2 have also been focussing on reading and spelling their common words.

We have been reading and learning the Three Billy Goats Gruff story.  Please ask your child if they can retell you the story.  We will use this story as inspiration to help us in our writing next week by innovating and changing parts of the story to create our own new stories.

Numeracy

We have continued to develop our estimation skills and practise the 5 times table. P2 have also been consolidating what they have learned about addition and have been learning to complete missing number calculations.

Learning across the Curriculum

For technologies P2 have been learning about objects and materials. They went on a material hunt around the class to find objects that where made of different materials like wood, metal, fabric and cardboard.  They have also been finding out how to ask and tell people what their names are in French.
