Spooky things in P2

We have been reading Room on the Broom for Halloween this week but while we were all having fun at the disco last night a witch came in and made a potions den in our classroom!

Some of us have had fun playing in it when we finished our work.

Brooklyn – The witch decorated our classroom.

Zoe  – The witch put spider webs on the computer.

Katie – We got to play in the potion lab and when we were playing we got to make potions.

She wrote us this letter –

So we wrote some narrative stories for Taught Writing today. We have put them in the potions lab for the witch to choose the star writers this week!

We also got to explore the choosing den this week. We have got lots of new games to play when we finish our work. They help us spell our common words and phoneme words.

Zoe  – It helped us learn  our common words.

Aaron –In the choosing den we all liked the toys there.

Charlotte – We really liked playing with all the new toys.

In Numeracy we have had fun learning some new games to help us with our place value.

So far we know how to play football manager, big winner, 2 in a row, pirate place value and lots of other games. We particularly enjoy playing guess my number as a whole class. Sonny showed us how to be successful learners –

Sonny – You have to ask if the tens or units are higher or lower numbers because I guessed on my 4th question.

Kyle – You have to make and break the number using the tens and the units cards

Katie – The number 12 was trying to catch us out but I know its 10 + 2 = 12 now

We had to put our hands on our heads and the first pair finished got some treasure.

Miss Langridge is making guess my number more challenging by only allowing us to ask 10 questions. It is making us more confident with understanding how our 2 digit numbers are made using tens and units.
