This week in Primary 2 we were learning about …

 

Cameron and Emily completed their murder mystery problem – They are still not completely sure who the murder was!!

 

Mrs Robertson’s group were practising their fact families to 20 by using a sheet to colour in different squares. – Alexander, Calum and Lucy.

 

The Calculators were learning how to read data from Bar Graphs and they had to work out most popular, least popular and the differences between the amounts shown. – Jessica

 

In language Mrs Rattray’s side was learning how to take notes. The books we got to choose from were very interesting!– Cameron, Emily and Lucy.

 

The Wizard of Oz group and the Cat in the Hat group were continuing to work on their comprehension skills. We had to scan for keywords and then pick out the information. – Farhan, Alexander and Jessica

 

Mrs Grubb’s language group were practising their inference skills. We had to look through a families rubbish to see what inferences we could draw about the family that lived there. We also played a ‘what word’ game where others had to give clues about places shown on the whiteboard to allow the guesser to infer what we were talking about. – Alexander, Ava, Lily, Riley and Farhan

 

The Tigers started a new topic on ‘houses and homes’ we now know how to tell if a house is new or old. We look at the bricks, if there s moss or not on the walls, windows and paintwork. – Cameron and Ava.
