Halloween Week!

We had such a fun filled Halloween themed week!

This week, we have been learning about area and volume! We also wrote some very spooky potions. We had so much fun dressing up for our Halloween Party today. Take a look at how fabulous we looked!

The police also visited us this week. They reminded us how to stay safe on Bonfire Night.

Have a great weekend!

First week of term 2!

 

Primary 2 have been very busy this week!

This week we have been practising our number bonds and learning about fractions. We designed pizzas outside using chalk and hoops! We then cut our pizzas into quarters!

We have also been learning alternative spellings this week. Ask us all about Magic E!

We also learned about Black History as October is Black History Month.

This afternoon, we made wands using sticks that we collected outside. We cannot wait to use them to cast some spooky spells next week!

Have a lovely weekend!

Outdoor learning week

I am sadly unable to upload pictures of our fantastic learning this week due to a technical issue on the blog.

We had a very busy week this week as it was Outdoor Learning week! We got to go to the park on Tuesday and had a lovely afternoon. I hope to share pictures of our visit with you as soon as soon as possible!

Here is a chance for you to try some vegetarian food during the holiday! Have a fantastic October Holiday and I will see you on Monday the 19th of October!

Meet The Teacher!

Hello! Welcome to the Primary 2 blog! It is fantastic to finally have the blog up and running. My name is Miss Bonar and I am the P2 teacher. We will be sharing our learning here on a weekly basis. Look out for us!

Usually we would invite families into our class for a formal visit. Sadly, we are unable to do this. Instead, I have put together a 10 minute ‘Meet The Teacher’ video and have attached the link below! This video allows you to virtually meet me and watch our wonderful P2 pupils in action! 

P2 have been working super hard and I am so proud of how well they have settled into our new class. You will see pictures from August to September in the video and will even see video clips from a Literacy lesson this week! 

P2 beat me AGAIN at Beat The Teacher. This is a fantastic game that you can play at home with your child. Simply set a timer and write the Tricky Words ‘come’ and ‘some’ as many times as you can! Warning, P2 are super fast! I know so many children have been playing this wonderful game at home! I have also included a few clips from our adjectives lesson on Wednesday. The children discuss in the video different objects, places and people that they can describe using adjectives at home! We will be using lots of adjectives and up-levelling our sentences in class!
