To all our Primary 2 parents and carers, since we are unable to welcome you into our classroom in person we wanted to share it with your virtually. Follow the link below to explore our fabulous classroom. We hope you enjoy!
Right angle hunt
Today we were learning about right angles.
We learned that when two lines meet they create an angle and shapes like rectangles and squares have right angles.
We created angle eaters and had great fun going on a right angle hunt around our classroom.
We recorded our findings on our whiteboards.
Have a look at all the right angles we found!!
Ice painting
Primary 2/2 have been learning all about water in science.
Today we were learning that water turns from a liquid to a solid when it freezes below 0°C and we call this ice!
We explored the different things that we can do with ice and we used ice painting to create fantastic pictures. 
Pudsey Day
Primary 2/2 had a great day learning all about children in need. They did fantastic Pudsey Bear imaginative writing and made Pudsey Bear headbands.
Measuring
Some of us used cubes and counters to measure the lengths of different lines. We also measured how tall we each were and stood in a line in order of height! 
Following a Map
Today, we had lots of fun following a map to find stars hidden round the outdoor area. When we found a star we labelled that section of our map. We have been learning that a good map is a map that is labelled clearly. When we got back to class we added any finishing touches to our map.
Creating a Map
We listened carefully to the story “We’re Going on a Bear Hunt” and took notes on our whiteboard about the places the characters passed on their bear hunt. We used our notes to create a map. Check out our fantastic maps below.
Bonfire poems
Today we used our 5 senses to write firework poems. We then used printing to create wonderful pictures. Have a look at our amazing work. 
Literacy Learning
Literacy-
We have been learning about the alphabet. We have been playing matching games to help us learn what each capital and lowercase letter looks like. We will continue to explore letters and will practice our letter formation.
As we are now in Primary 2 we get spelling homework. In class we do lots of Active Spelling to help us learn how to spell words. Some boys and girls were using magnetic letters to spell words.
‘ch’ was one of our spelling rules so the children were challenged to write ‘ch’ words and our tricky words with chalk.
Outdoor Learning
Muddy movers has been one of our favourite activities since returning to school. It is lots of fun, plus it helps us develop our gross motor skills which in turn improves our fine motor skills such as our pencil grip. We have been learning to work together to build obstacle courses and risk assess to ensure we can all cross the obstacle course safely.
Check out some of the pictures below. We were learning to keep our balance so it is important to….
Oran- “stand up tall”
Mollie- “hold our arms out”
Georgia- “face forwards”
