Another fantastic week in Primary 2!
So much fun and learning! This week in maths we were looking at money and what coins we can use to make values up to £1.
Our mental maths time included lots of different ways to make numbers to 10 using the bar model.
Lulu – We can get 4 calculations from the model.
Abdulhadi – We were remembering what odd and even numbers are.
Subhan – We were adding £2 and £2 to make £4.
Inayah – We were learning about multiplication.
Issa – Multiplication is like groups of.
During Health and Wellbeing, we practiced our listening skills. This is a whole class target we are trying to work on.
Ajwa – We were asking our partners what they were doing at the weekend so we could practice our listening skills.
Abdulhadi – We then asked them questions to show we were listening to them.
Ajwa- We learned that if you’re not listening, you cannot ask questions.
We then worked in pairs to show the importance of asking questions. One person had to draw something on their whiteboard and the other had to ask questions to guess what was on it.
Abdullah – We were sitting behind our partner and asking question about what was on our boards.
Rida – We were drawing shapes for our partner to guess.
During our writing time, we were still focusing on Character. Some of us were re-writing a piece we had already written in order to improve it, and the other group working on the iPads to animate our library books.
Deen – We were talking about Characters, and describing them using adjectives.
Subhan – We were describing characters using all the words that are needed.
During grammar we looked at singular and plurals. We had a shot at writing words in singular and plural.
Lulu – We write a ‘s’ at the end if there is more than one.
Subhan – Plural is more than 1.
Aarv – Singular is just 1.
During our outdoor PE slot we practiced our ball skills.
Innayah – We were throwing the balls to each other.
Abdulhadi – We were rolling and bouncing the ball.
Amer – We were passing and rolling the ball.
This afternoon we had such fun watching the Primary 4’s performance with Barroland Ballet.
Ajwa – They were telling us a story about a monster and that all stories don’t have a happy ending.
Innayah – They were doing cartwheels.
Alizah – They were doing handstands.
Amer – They were telling a story and mums were there.
Hope you all have a lovely weekend and can’t wait to see everyone again on Monday!
