Hi everybody,

September is almost at an end already and P2 have been very busy. For our Nature topic, we have been learning the difference between living and non-living things and did a great job of sorting these.

In maths, we have been learning and improving lots of new skills including measuring, creating patterns, place value and problem solving.

In muddy movers, we have been working as a team to create obstacle courses which include different elements.

In PE, we have been working on possession games and had lots of fun trying out a range of activities to improve our aim and control.

Finally, it was lovely seeing so many of you at our open afternoon. Hopefully you had a lovely time and enjoyed seeing some of our learning.

Have a lovely long weekend!

Hi everybody,

We’ve had a lovely and very busy start to Primary 2! We enjoyed taking part in some yoga and are keen to do this more often.

We’ve had fabulous weather so far during muddy movers and have been learning to work together as a team and use our imaginations.

In maths, we have been working on creating addition calculations using concrete material to help us. We’re getting more and more confident with this! We’ve also been learning how to use beebots to programme routes and follow directions.

In PE, we are learning to improve our control, balance, throwing and catching.

Finally, we made suggestions of what topic we would like to start with in P2 and voted for Nature. We started our topic off by working together to think of as many things as we could for different categories of nature. Then we went outside to complete a nature scavenger hunt.

That’s all for this month,

Miss Donaldson and P2/1 🙂
