Here are lots of photos from another wonderful week in P2b!

Thanks again for giving your time for our parents night appointments this week. It was a pleasure to speak to you all and share your children’s progress and learning experiences. The boys and girls were very excited to come in and tell me how well they are doing!

As it has been such a busy week, we have not managed any quotes for our photos, but I am sure your child will be happy to tell you all about what we have been up to!

Literacy

Our sounds this week were ‘ou’ and ‘ue.’ We have finished revising our diagraphs and will be moving on to tricky alternate diagraph sounds next week!

We have been adding in WOW words to our writing and extending our sentences with ‘and’ and ‘because.’

 

Miss Geddes has been helping everyone to sequence the main events in stories this week. We did this with a big book called The Big Snowball then tried it with our own reading books!

 

Numeracy

Miss Geddes has been helping us to learn about capacity this week!

We have explored containers and their capacity outside. The children worked well in pairs to match the language of capacity and colour in containers.

HWB/PE

In HWB we have continued to learn about Friendships. This week Miss Geddes gave everyone scenario cards. The children acted these out in groups and decided if the scenarios showed people being friendship builders or friendship blockers!

 

We are now finished our block of ball skills. Everyone really enjoyed passing, dribbling and shooting in Basketball this week!

 

 

Outdoor learning

This week we have spent lots of time in our P2 garden.

We have been making dens, problem solving when playing ‘the floor is lava,’ and even having exciting chats about floating and sinking with dinosaurs in a very muddy puddle!

 

IDL
We have started exploring our new Dinosaurs topic in P2b this week!

On Wednesday afternoon we explored lots of exciting play provocations and started our new class novel – The Dinosaur’s Diary!

Thank you to everyone who has brought in exciting dinosaur pictures, books and toys to share with the class. We have really enjoyed hearing about everyone’s knowledge and experiences.
