During this very stormy week in Primary 2 we explored lots of different learning opportunities.
In Maths, we focused on volume. So on Monday morning, we made smoothies.
Rida – we made smoothies.
Jibraeel- We picked our own fruit to make the smoothies.
RV- We learned about Volume and they were full when they were made, then there would be less when we drank them.
Ajwa- We used the lists for the ingredients.
Abdulhadi – We were measuring the cups when it was the whole fruits and then again when it was blended.
Talha- We drank the smoothies.
RV- They started full, then they became half full and then empty.
Amna- We learned about the language of volume.
Arham- We were measuring things.
In Primary 2, we have tried to make the most of the horrible weather. We have placed out lots of different cups in the play ground and we are going to measure the rail fall.
Zainab- We left out cups to measure the rain.
Lulu- We are going to go back outside and see how much rain has fallen.
Inayah- We played maths games.
Talha- Playing games – snakes and ladders.
Sam- We played number games.
We have started to look at taking away concrete materials during maths, and tried to use different strategies in our head.
Abdulhadi – Looking at numbers that make 10.
Arham- We used the ‘counting on’ method when adding.

This week during Health and Wellbeing, we looked at the Food Pyramid and what types of food (and how much) we need to be healthy.
Aarv- Learned about healthy foods and the food pyramid. We put the correct foods into the pyramid.
Zayn- We talked about what our favourite food is
Abdulhadi- You stay healthy by eating Dairy, fruit and vegetables, protein and hats.
On Monday, we are looking forward to celebrating Aleena’s Birthday with some cake!
Primary 2 have asked to have weekend challenges are part of our maths homework: each week I will add the challenge to the end of the blog to remind you of the challenge.
This weeks challenge: Count all of the forks in the house.
Feel free to leave a comment at the end of the blog with any questions or messages. 🙂
Have an amazing weekend!
