P2b have yet again had a very busy and productive week!

This week in numeracy we have been looking at pattern. We created our own patterns in the class using different shapes and colours.

Jamie, Liam, Hannah, Millie, Dylan and Libby worked together to make a huge chain. They used their problem solving skills to come up with a way to measure how long the chain was. They discovered it was 35 rulers long!

We went outside this week and went on a ‘senses’ walk around the school. We were on the hunt for things that we could see, smell, hear, feel and taste. We discovered lots of different things on our walk.

We also spent the week revising some french greetings that we learned in P1 and were introduced to some new ones. We walked around the class to music and when it stopped we found a friend to practice our french conversational skills. We know how to say hello, my name is and tell people how we are. Ask us at home!

P2b Homework guidance 2019

Spelling list this week is number 4 ‘ng’. Children should choose 6 words from the list to practice over the course of the week.

Numeracy homework has been assigned on Education City. All children have their log in details in their homework folders.

P2b have been inspired by Cieran today who made this fabulous toy robot out of recycled material. P2b were so amazed by this creation that they have decided they would like to make their own toys out of recycled materials.

The class have been asked to collect as much recycled material (cardboard, plastic bottles, toilet roll holders, milk cartons and lids etc.) as they can this week and bring it in for Thursday. Please when sending in recycled materials can they be cleaned out.

If you have any questions please ask.

Numeracy

This week we have been very busy learning some new numeracy skills. The squares have started learning about money this week and have been practicing organising coins by colour and amount.

Some of the boys and girls have been working hard on their mental calculation strategies. They have been using these to solved addition problems beyond 20.

Eilidh and Libby opened up a shop in the class.

Also lots of the boys and girls used the 2D shapes to create lots of fantastic patterns and pictures.

As you can see we have had a very busy week so far in P2b!

W/E 6.9.19

This week we were joined by P6a for literacy. We buddied up and got to know our new friends whilst taking part in some paired reading. It was lovely experience for all of us. We hope P6a can join us again soon!

We also started our new topic ‘The Past’ this week. Our focus over the next few weeks will be toys from the past. We began discussing toys that we own and spoke about their properties. We then compared these to toys from the past and discussed similarities and differences. We worked togther to organise some toys into old and new. After this we had the chance to talk about our favourite toy. Some of the boys and girls drew wonderful pictures of their toy.

Some wonderful child led learning has been going on in P2b this week too!

Eilidh, Liam and Libby decided to build a castle for a King and Queen. They had to work together to mak sure the castle was stable and could stand on its own.

Chloe and Sienna set up their very own shop. Before they could open they had to sort the money.

Cieran, Jason and Ben worked hard togther using the bricks in the atrium to build a fantastic train station.

Aleah made this amazing pattern using the plastic shapes.

What a productive week we have had in P2b!

Outdoor Learning

Last week we took our learning outdoors. We have been learning about measure in numeracy and mathematics and have been using different materials to measure with. Last week we used materials that could be found outside to measure the length of parts of our bodies. We used things like sticks, stones and leaves.

Ask us about our findings :)!
