Mondays and Thursdays are gym days. Every Thursday we will have a visiting P.E specialist who will take us for gym. Please provide a full gym kit of shorts, t-shirt and sandshoes in a gym bag which can stay in school for when it is needed. Remember to label all items as well as the bag with your child’s name.
We all enjoyed ourselves in the Learning Zone today where we worked on our social skills of sharing, having quiet voices and good tidying up skills.
For literacy today we did our reading, learned about the ‘th’ sound, played some sound games and listened to stories on the i-pad.
For maths we made numbers up to 100 one or two more or less. We also tried counting up and down in twos to 20 without looking at the number square.
In the afternoon we learned about the Christian value of ‘love’ by reading and talking about the story of The Lost Sheep. We then planned out ideas to do in the Learning Zone and talked about what we did.
Today we used good miming skills in our drama lesson. We have also been practising the ‘ch’ and ‘th’ sound and some of us got to do a listening activity using the i-pads.
We were in the gym today learning different ways to travel as well as playing a circle game. In the afternoon we got to practise our numbers to 100 using the computers. 
In maths we have been finding numbers that come before and after each other. We have also been busy in the Learning Zone working on sharing the toys, using quiet voices and tidying up well.
Primary 2 have had a super first few days back at school. They have all settled in well and been working very hard in class.
Today we worked on our Class Charter and started making our passports for Primary 2. We also practised our common words and did our spelling as well as learning some songs with actions and reading some stories.
In maths today we ordered numbers and matched them with the number names. We also learned about rhyming words with the ‘en’ sound. 
Welcome back to school after our summer holidays. The children all had a great day and have settled well into Primary 2.
A reminder to make sure all items of school clothing have your child’s name on them.
This year gym days are Monday and Thursday.. Please provide shorts, t-shirt and sand shoes in a gym bag with all items and the bag labelled with your child’s name too.
