Phonics Activities

This morning P2c have been consolidating their digraphs learning. They started by ‘Dunking for Digraphs’, then taking part in lots of activities to practice the different words they’ve been learning over the last few weeks!

Brief Guide to Homework:

  • Numeracy & Mathmatics:
    • Mental Maths Booklet with 10 questions each day, Monday to Thursday.
      • There’s no need to write anything down.
      • The children are free to use their fingers, counters, number lines etc. to help them.
    • Extension Activity
      • An additional interactive task focusing on a different aspect of maths each week.
  • Literacy & English:
    • Reading – a book to read with an adult at home each week (the school will be starting a new book scheme in the coming weeks – more information to follow)
    • Spelling – each week there will be a new set of spelling words to learn
      • For the first few weeks in P2c these will be common words that the children will use across their learning e.g. shapes, days of the week, months of the year etc.
      • Subsequently these will be words following a new spelling rule/diagraph e.g. ‘wh’, ‘th’ ‘ng’ etc. (We’ll start doing spelling tests on a Friday at this point)
      • The children can choose any activity/activities from their ‘Spelling Menu’ that they’d like to do to help them learn their spelling words.
  • Other/Reminders:
    • There’s no need to bring in any written record of the activities you do for homework – it’s all designed to be done actively.
    • From time to time a project may be set as homework in place of the usual Literacy & Maths.

If anyone ever wants to ask anything or have a quick chat, please feel free to catch me when I’m out in the Playground at 3pm each day 🙂

Growing Plants

Today in P2c, we planted daffodils and tulips in our classroom. We’ll be watering them each week, and will hopefully have lots of beautiful flowers in March/April!
