We have been learning the sound ‘sh’ in class and how to read tricky words. We have been learning to use some reading strategies like sound the word out, look for words hiding inside the word or look for a phoneme (two or three sounds together that make one sound – like ‘sh’, ‘ch’, ‘th’ etc).

Why not watch this clip about ‘sh’ sounds;

How many sound words can you remember? Can you think of any more? Can you think of  words that end with ‘sh’? Tell a grown up.

We were learning to use some reading strategies to help us read our words. We know to try and sound words out, look for words hiding or look for tricky letters or phonemes.

We  keep fit and healthy by doing our daily mile every day.

We talked more about children’s rights today. We came up with these ways we can all enjoy the right to play.

Today we listened to a reading of our shared class book called ‘Where Next Dinky?’ on ‘Bug Club’.  We talked about the tricky compass directions of north, south, east and west and named the countries that make up the United Kingdom.

We will get our passwords home soon so the  children can enjoy discussing all the important  new vocabulary they have been learning about.

We were being creative in art today using paint in dotty patterns to decorate the underpants we read about in the story ‘Aliens Love Underpants’.

Well done Primary 2 for finishing your first full week back at school. Have a lovely weekend.

We were busy learning about numbers before, after, more and less than one another.

We have been working hard on our number formation and finding numbers before and after each other.

Today in Primary 2 we practised writing our letters and numbers as well as doing spelling and sound words.

We also learned ways to keep ourselves safe during this pandemic.

We have all had a great first week in Primary 2 and we have all been working hard and getting to know each other. Well done everyone and enjoy your weekend.

Welcome back to school Primary 2! We have had a brilliant first  day and we have all settled into our new class very well.

We have kept ourselves safe and well and learned a lot about washing our hands properly as well as how we all might feel a little worried about coming into our new class.

I’m looking forward to seeing you all on Friday.
