Primary 2A with Ms McCann and Ms Kennedy
Summary of Learning
In literacy we will be doing our Daily Supported Reading programme each morning to increase our fluency and expression when reading texts and having weekly reading cafes with P6 to develop an enjoyment of reading! In phonics we will continue to learn sounds to support our reading and written work. During writing we will be focusing on sentence structure, the features of instructions and using simple connections to extend our sentences.
In Numeracy we will be counting forwards and backwards in 2s and 5s. We will be focusing on place value and the value of each digit in 2-digit numbers. We will also be working on our mental agility through mental maths activities. In maths, we will focus on simple shape and number patterns.
Our topic this term has been decided by the pupils and will be Scotland. We will be looking at where Scotland is on a map, famous Scottish people and Scottish animals. In art we will be looking at famous Scottish artists and their work, commenting on the different styles they use. In PE we will be learning tennis skills, inspired by Judy Murray!
PE Days
Our PE days this term will be Monday and Thursday. Please come to school dressed for PE and wearing no jewellery. Thursday’s PE is outdoors, so please bring a jacket and have a spare pair of clothes in bags.
