Week Beginning 19th February

Good Morning,

Homework

Spelling- This week we are back to looking at the silent e rule, specifically u_e words such as tube and cube. All children have been learning about this rule in class but may have different spelling words.

Maths- For the next few weeks we will be focussing on money. In order to immerse the children in fun, relevant activities we have sent home a homework bingo sheet. There are 12 activities and I am looking for the children to complete at least 9 of these over the next three weeks. One of those activities is to play a money game online: https://www.topmarks.co.uk/money/toy-shop-money

Reading- Children have been continuing to choose their own reading books and love discussing them in class.

Good evening, I hope you have had a fabulous weekend. Please see below for this week’s homework and class news.

Homework:

Spelling: This week’s spelling sound is u-e as in tube, rude and tune. We will be learning how this sound is different from ew and ue.

Reading: Reading books will be issued this week. If possible please continue to discuss setting, character and plot with your child. We have been learning how to write stories in class and I have been impressed with the characters pupils are creating.

Wordwalls: New wordwalls will be issued this week. A selection of words will be highlighted for your child but please feel free to do more if you wish. You can also ask your child to use these words in a sentence.

Maths: We will be learning all about money over the next few weeks. Children will be issued with a maths homework bingo card and if possible should complete the suggested amount of tasks each week. These are designed to be fun, practical activities to help children get used to using money and counting coins.

Class News:

Papier Mache: Thank you for all your newspaper donations – we had great fun making our sculptures. We can’t wait for you to see them.

Engineering: We have started to design our cars and last week had a visit from our engineer Matthew. He liked our designs so watch this space!

World Thinking Day: Feb 22nd is World Thinking Day. You can wear your Rainbow or Scouting uniform on this day.

Have a great week ahead!

Week beginning 13th February

Good evening and Happy Valentine’s Day!

There is no formal homework this week due to the shortness of it, but children should be practicing their number bonds to 10 and 20 at home, using their wordwalls (for reading or spelling!) and reading different materials. I have sent homework diaries home just in case you need to contact me at all.

Have a lovely rest of the week,

Miss B

Read and Munch will be on Friday so pupils can bring in a healthy snack such as fruit and their favourite book.  We have been reading with our P4 buddies at his time and the children are thoroughly enjoying this reading slot.

We hope to have a date for our Primary 2  open afternoon with you by Friday.

Have a great week.
