Primary 2 have had a busy few weeks learning lots of new skills and having fun!
Our Local Area-
We have been learning about Our Local Area using different types of maps. We used Google Maps to find our house and discussed the different types of houses we live in including detached, semi-detached, terraced, flats, cottage flats and bungalows.
The boys and girls worked in small groups to explore a paper map of Barrhead where they identified their street and were able to find the train station, primary schools and community buildings.
Primary two have had so much fun learning about houses and homes we created an Estate Agents. The children used their literacy skills and their prior learning to make For Sale posters.

It’s Friday already and I have been so proud of all your hard work this week. It’s been a very strange week but it’s been so good to have our google classroom so that we can all keep in touch.
Try some of our activities if you have time.
I’m going to start my day with Joe Wicks although my legs are a bit sore! He makes me work very hard!
Have a good day 😁

You could rainbow write them in your jotter – just like we do in class.
Challenge – Can you use one of the words in a sentence?

It is called Epic!
I will give you 2 books a week to read.

MATHS
We have been learning our doubles in class.
Can you write the doubles out in your jotter today? 1+1=2, 2+2=4, 3+3=6
Or can you draw a butterfly and make each wing have the same number of spots – learning about symmetry and doubles! 👏
Write the calculation to match your wings. Have a look at the blue butterfly for an idea.
Let me know how you get on!
We wanted to build a boat for our friend Ginger so that he wouldn’t be eaten by the fox. We had lots of fun testing different materials to see what would float and sink. Our boats were very good and only 3 sunk! Excellent engineering P1/2! 👌😁
