Well done to Allan who was awarded a Ruby Reward this week for being an excellent pupil in the dinner hall. Allan chose Logan to sit with him at the Ruby Table.

Well done!

Primary 2/3 looked absolutely fantastic dressed up for Halloween on Tuesday. Their costumes were all amazing!

We had a great party in the afternoon – we danced, played party games, dooked for apples and took part in some Halloween activities. It was great fun!

Primary 2/3 have had a great first week of term.

We have been very lucky to get some lovely new Chromebooks to use in the classroom. We have been learning how to use them this week and have had fun playing games to enhance our learning in literacy and numeracy.

We have been learning the ‘ph’ and ‘ea’ sounds and finishing off our descriptive writing in literacy. In numeracy we have been learning to identify odd and even numbers. We enjoyed a lovely walk around the village on Wednesday afternoon to look for Halloween decorations and are looking forward to a fun filled day of Halloween activities on Tuesday!

Have a great weekend!

It’s hard to believe that it’s the end of term 1 already!

What a busy week it has been! We finally made it on our first class walk this week. We walked to the park and had lots of fun.

It was really hard but we managed to stay quiet for a whole 30 minutes during our Harvest Hush-In on Wednesday afternoon.

Thank you to everyone who made it along to parents’ night on Wednesday, it was so lovely to see you all and speak to you in person.

We finished off the term with a class party this afternoon for achieving 1000 points on Class Dojo, well done Primary 2/3!

Have a great October holiday!

This week in Primary 2/3 we have been learning to partition 2 and 3 digits in numeracy. We have been working hard on our sounds and spelling in literacy and had lots of fun taking part in different activities for our John Muir Day on Wednesday. We have also been learning some British Sign Language!

This week in Primary 2/3 we have been learning to use a place value chart in numeracy, learning the ‘th’ and ‘au’ sounds in literacy and making some beautiful rainbow fish for our ‘Under the Sea’ display.

It was so nice to welcome families into the classroom for our Numeracy Open Morning on Wednesday. Thank you to those of you that managed to make it along, I hope you enjoyed getting the chance to see the learning taking place in Primary 2/3.

Have a great weekend!

In Primary 2/3 this week we have been learning to count forwards and backwards to 100 and counting in 10’s in numeracy. We have enjoyed building models with the base ten materials and counting how many we have used.

We have been learning the ‘th’ and ‘aw’ sound in literacy and have started our whole class book study ‘The Rainbow Fish’. This week we were writing a description of The Rainbow Fish and have been creating some super artwork.

We have also had lots of fun playing with the loose parts outside and have enjoyed building our own shop. We have been looking for acorns in the school grounds and have been putting them in order of size from smallest to biggest.

Have a lovely long weekend!

What a warm and sunny week it has been! It has been very hot at times but this hasn’t stopped the children from working hard.

This week in Primary 2/3 we have been revising the ‘sh’ and ‘ai’ sounds and writing ‘All About Me’ in literacy. In maths we have been counting on and back to 100 and counting in 10s.  We have been learning about animals that live under the sea and Mrs McKenna brought in a real shark tooth for us to see! On Wednesday we had our first Home Circles and we were talking about how our opinions can be heard at school.

Have a lovely weekend!

We have had a busy week of learning in Primary 2/3! We have been working hard on revising sounds, writing sentences, counting and identifying numbers, learning about ‘Under the Sea’, playing outside and so much more. Have a look. . . . . . . . . . . .
