Hello readers, we have been super busy this week. Here’s everything we got up to…

Literacy

In literacy we have been continuing to do DLL every day, we love getting to read lots of new books!

We have also been practicing how to put sentences in the correct order.

This week our new sound was ‘ng’ – we thought of lots of words that use our sound!

Numeracy

In maths this week we have been practicing our mental maths addition- we have played lots of fun games to do this. We also got to use the IPads – we loved using them.

We have also been looking at measure! We have been measuring different objects in the classroom using our feet and hand span. We have been practicing how to estimate the length and then checking it!

PE

This week in gymnastics we have been practicing group balances- we got into groups and had 5 minutes to create a balance and practice. We then had to hold it for at least 10 second! We loved trying lots of different balances- our class yoga has definitely helped!

 

IDL

Hola! Primary 2 A took a quick trip to Mexico this week as part of our ‘People around the World’ topic! After almost missing our flight, we got our passports and boarding passes checked and found our seats on the plane. It was a smooth take off and before we knew it we had landed in sunny Mexcio!

We learned all about the Mexican culture, flag, language, traditions, school, food, sport, clothing and landmarks!  We loved our visit- especially hearing about all of the yummy food. After our quick visit we practiced our Spanish, spoke about the difference between Scotland and Mexico and agreed that we must try some Mexican food! We tried traditional guacamole we had mixed opinions but we are happy we got to try it!

We had to get out cameras out to snap a picture of the famous Chichen Itza!

After a smooth flight back to Crookfur we were already thinking about our next trip! Next week we are heading to the Netherlands and we can’t wait to learn all about another country.

Thank you for reading our blog! We hope you have enjoyed hearing everything that happened in P2A this week.

Adios readers- we will be back with an update next week, have a lovely weekend 🙂
