It’s Maths Week in Bishopton! We will be looking at linking maths to all aspects of our learning. The teachers have lots of fun things planned and organised for you!
As you may know, a Bishopton Primary tradition during Maths Week is to visit the local co-op. This links to numeracy and maths because we are using our counting skills and knowledge of money. The P2 teachers would like to say thank you to all those parents and guardians who volunteered to help walk us along to the co-op.
Please remember to bring £1 to spend in the shops. Your class will be visiting the Co-op on

P2E – Tuesday 28th September 9:00 am
P2K –  Thursday 30th September 11:45 am
P2B – Thursday 30th September 11:45 am

Please keep an eye out on your class TEAMS page, as there will be lots of photos of the fun maths activities posted throughout the week.

Thank you
