Home Learning Overview
Happy New Year to all of our families. We will miss seeing everyone’s lovely faces at school every day and we hope that we are back together at school very, very soon. Stay safe and look after each other.
Primary 2 staff are working closely together to provide children with daily work on the blog . Every morning an introduction video will be posted to give an overview of tasks for that day. The blogs for that day will contain the work which should be completed. We will post a variety of Maths, Literacy and Health and Wellbeing (HWB) tasks and some topic work . The work will be uploaded before 9am every morning. Please fit the tasks around what suits you best as a family. We don’t expect the children to be sitting at a desk from 9 until 3 every day. Home life can be stressful at the moment so if things are not going well remember tomorrow is a new day or feel free to contact us. Mrs Mackie will be giving you a weekly call and will be happy to hear of any worries/concerns/suggestions you have.
Please remember to collect your Home Learning Packs form school. These will assist with daily tasks.
Miss Rai will post a blog today about how to leave us a comment. Please, please leave us some comments. We love to hear how you are getting on.
If you would like to share any super jobs your child has completed (school or otherwise) please email a picture or screen shot or document to Mrs Wishart and we will try to upload some of your work to share weekly through a blog. Mrs Wishart’s email is gw14wishartsimona@glow.sch.uk
Enjoy your learning.
Hexagons and Pentagons
In primary 2 we are learning about shapes with many sides. These are called polygons. A six sided shape is a hexagon and an 8 sided shape is an octagon. Look around the house to see if you can spot any hexagons or polygons.
