Achieving, Respect and Kindness
Good morning Primary 2 and a very happy Friday to you all! We’ve made it through our first week of home learning and Miss Rai, Mrs Cheshire and Mr White are proud of you all for working hard!
To start your morning off, let’s get fit with Joe Wicks! He will be live with a new video in about 8 minutes!

We started learning about some animals for our hot and cold topic. Did you know Google lets you bring 3D animals into your home? Get an adult to help you and follow the instructions below! You can do it for a tiger and other animals too! You can post your creation onto the school Facebook page if you like to let us see! Use #P2animalchallenge
Talk to an adult or record yourself explaining: –
Draw and write

Remember to try and read every day even if it’s just for 5-10 minutes! You can read your reading book, library book or your own book! Remember if you get stuck on a word, try and use the strategies that you have learned at school. To help you, we’ve added them below!
Challenge:
1. Try and read aloud to an adult.
2. Read to a teddy, doll or action figure or all your toys!
3.Read in a silly voice or a posh voice!
Good morning children, parents and carers! We hope you are all well and safe. We have nearly made it through the week!
Remember these activities and challenges are posted to reinforce your learning at home. You don’t have to do all of them all at once. We understand that your adults and other family members will be busy doing their work too. So just do what you can and when you can. Home learning isn’t just about doing Literacy and Maths, it’s sitting and spending time with your family. It’s also being kind and helpful by doing jobs around your home like washing the dishes, setting the table and making your bed. Remeber our rule, children: LISTEN to and respect your adults at home as they are working their hardest to keep you safe and well. 🙂
The children love doing a morning challenge as soon as they come into the classroom in the mornings so we thought we’d put one up on the blog!
