Good afternoon,

Homework and news for this week:

Homework

Our spelling rule is continuing with the silent (magic) e rule, focussing on o_e words such as globe and mope. We are also continuing to practice our common words.

Maths: This week’s homework is looking at partitioning numbers into tens and units. For example, the number 56 has 5 tens and 6 units.

Reading: The children chose their own books this week, appropriate to their stage. They were very excited about this and will no doubt want to discuss their choices with you at home.

News

This week on Thursday we have our Scottish assembly. Our winning poet, Ryan, will be on stage performing along with all of our other class winners in the school.  Pupils can wear something tartan to school if they wish with their school uniform.  

We are continuing our Katie Morag topic.  We hope to have an open afternoon this term in March.  This will be an opportunity for you to come into class and see what your child has been learning this term.  Date and times to be confirmed as soon as possible for you to plan your schedules.

Primary 4 are having a bake sale on Thursday 1st February as part of their school topic.   Primary 2 are welcome to bring some pennies in and purchase a cake on this day.  Cakes will be 10p to 50p.

Have a lovely week!

Miss B
