Literacy

This week P2 were learning the ow phoneme as in grow, crow and bowl.  They practised spelling different words with ‘ow’ and found ow words in a phoneme story.

In talking and listening this week they were expressing their opinion about the best character in the ‘Wizard of OZ’ after watching M&M productions perform it for them at school.  They all gave reasons why the character they picked was their favourite and they used this in their writing on Thursday.

Numeracy

This week they finished off their fractions unit in Maths.  They all had different sandwich orders to make using what they had learned about halves and quarters.  I’ll post  some pictures of the finished sandwiches next week.

Learning across the Curriculum:

In Health and Wellbeing P2 continued to learn about friendships and that it is important to think about how other people are feeling too. They created a poster about the different ways you can be kind to people.

In social subjects the learned about all the different ways land is used in and around Catrine. They generated a whole class list with their ideas before drawing and labelling some of them in their IDL jotter.

P2 have also really enjoyed using the Bionicles Lego during choosing time and have been busy creating lots of different characters.

The class were also very excited to have a special visitor to the class and meet Mrs Campbell’s baby.
