Hello everyone,

I hope you are all well.

Today your child has been issued with their parents evening appointment. Attached to the appointment is a parent and pupil response sheet to be filled in and returned no later than Friday 17th May. This response sheet will help with the structure of our appointment and ensure that the most important information is being discussed.

Please check your child’s bag for other letters, as there are some important ones about the new school phone number and our new pay system.

Please see this weeks homework below.

Homework P2K w.b. 22/04/19

Hello everyone,

I hope you all had a lovely Easter weekend with the glorious weather!

With the beautiful weather arriving (and hopefully staying) the field is now open for all children to enjoy. A timetable has been shared with the children as to which days they are allocated for both the field and the pitch. If your child wishes to to go on to the field/pitch, please provide them with an alternative pair of comfortable shoes to change into at lunchtime. These will be kept in your child’s schoolbag, as there is limited space in both our classroom and the cloakroom.

Also, for masterclass for the next few weeks I will be holding a pebble painting hour to practise fine motor skills, colour mixing, pattern and mindfulness. If you are able to, please allow your child to bring in a smooth pebble large enough to create paint patterns. If you have any extra around it would be greatly appreciated if these were also brought in to share with the other children.

Please see below for our homework this week. Please note that because of the short week Maths homework is due in on Friday, rather than Thursday.

Many thanks,

Mrs Kane.

15/04/2019                             Maths Homework

 

Your child should make a maths game on something that they have learned in maths since joining Primary 2. The games will be kept in class for the children to enjoy during free flow and math sessions, to help them remember previous learning. The game should be handed in on Monday 29th of April.

The game can be as creative as they wish. Here are some suggestions:

  • Card game.
  • Board game.
  • Physical game.

Things we have covered this year:

Addition, subtraction, counting in 2’s, 5’s, 10’s, number bonds, shape, measure, symmetry, weight, time, odd and even, diagrams.

Many thanks,

Primary 2 teachers.

P2K homework week beginning 25.03.19

Hello everyone,

I hope you had a lovely weekend.

Homework will be a little different this week on the run up to the holidays.

Literacy:

  1. A library book of your child’s choosing will be brought home to enjoy. If your child has finished it before Friday, encourage them to bring it back and choose another to enjoy.
  2. Spelling rule this week is ‘or’, however there will be no formal homework on this as it will be done in class time.

Numeracy:

  1. This week we would like the children to practise their mental maths by logging on to sumdog. A reminder that sumdog passwords are in your child’s homework diaries.

A few reminders:

  • This week is Big Pedal – please park bikes and scooters along the bottom railing in the middle playground.
  • Thursday – House Quiz day – children are encouraged to wear their house colour. Good Luck Primary 2!

Have a lovely holiday everyone! We have worked so hard this term and I am super proud of everything we have achieved. See you all after Easter 🙂

P2k Homework w.b. 18/03/19

Hello everyone.

I hope you had a lovely and relaxing weekend.

A few notes to add to homework this week. Please find the information below:

  1. Big Pedal – Starts the week beginning 25.03.18. If your child is able to, please allow them to bring a bike or scooter to school everyday. If your child is bringing a bike they must be wearing a helmet; however it is ok and encouraged for your child to wear a helmet on their scooter also, however this is not essential.  P2K should park their bikes and scooters against the fence in the middle playground, just at the top of the infant stairs where we enter the building (the children have been informed and know where this is). This is to stop overcrowding of the infant playground for safety and also to allow P2K to have their daily cycle/scoot in the middle playground each day. If it is at all possible please allow your child to enter the school through the middle gate at the path, to allow them to easily walk through the playground with their bike/scooter before and after school. We ask that you please do not walk up and down the stairs with bikes and scooters for everyone’s safety. Thank you.
  2. Mrs Hughes music – Mrs Hughes has asked that if you have any recyclable materials that could be used for making musical instruments i.e. milk cartons, kitchen roll tubes etc be brought into school for Tuesday 26th March. Thank you.

Maths homework this week is forwards and backwards counting in 10’s to 100. I have spoken to the children and offered for them to take home a 100 square to help. If you feel this would help at home, please let me know and I will get one to you.

Have a lovely week,

Mrs Kane.
