Today, the children started learning about area.

They asked me to put this game on the blog that they enjoyed playing today:

Good Afternoon everyone!

Here is the homework for this week:

Literacy:

A new book has been issued to each child today.
The spelling rule this week is ‘ur’. The words the children chose were:

Red – fur, burn, turn, curl.

Blue – purple, further, return, Thursday.

Common words are but, because, so and also. These words are connectives that we are practising for our writing.

Numeracy:

Litres and Millilitres worksheet.

Sports day

I still need one parent helper for sports day tomorrow to walk us over to the ROF field. We will be leaving from the classroom straight after break. Children are to wear sports clothes and their house colours. As the weather forecast is not great, something warm and waterproof may also help.

Packaging

If you have any food packaging that could help with our topic activities please send them in to us.

Talent Show Auditions

I have given some children their audition times for next week. They are all on Tues 4th June at lunchtime. Children are required to bring their own music if possible and a costume if they wish.

Thanks.

Miss Grant

Hello everyone,

Talent show

If your child has signed up to audition for the talent show, their audition will take place at lunch time on Wednesday 5th of June.

Thank you,

Miss Finnigan and P2F

The weather forecast is not great for either Wednesday or Thursday this week. As Thursday appears to be worse than Wednesday, sports day will go ahead as best as possible tomorrow.  Some alterations may need to be made during the day if the weather becomes very bad.

Please come prepared with waterproof clothing. The temperature also looks low so a jumper or sweatshirt may also be required.

If you are taking your child out of school at lunchtime they will be dismissed by their class teacher from the usual exit door, not from the school office.

Sports Day is on Wednesday 29th May.

The P2 races will begin in the ROF field at 11am and finish at 12pm.

We are in need of two parent helpers to assist us in walking over to the field from the school.

If you can help can you please let me know as soon as possible.

Thanks

Miss Grant

Apologies, I forgot to remind the children today that we will be going to the P1 Bake Sale tomorrow morning.

If you are happy for your child to buy something at the bake sale please provide them with some money.  We are going before morning interval, so they could buy something for their snack.

Many thanks,

Miss Grant

Next week Primary 2 are going to be learning all about healthy and unhealthy food choices.

We would really appreciate it if, as you finish different types of foods, that you send the empty packaging into school for the children to explore and sort.

Many thanks,

The Primary 2 Team

Hello everyone,

Just a reminder that Primary 1 are holding a bake sale tomorrow, with the cakes ranging from 20p to £1. If you wish your child to buy a cake, please send them with money tomorrow (23rd May).

Your child will be given time to eat their cake during Read and Munch, however please also send in a healthy snack if you wish.

Many thanks,

Mrs Kane and Mr Wormald.

Unless  otherwise informed, if your child has put him/herself forward for a talent show audition, their audition will be held on THURSDAY  6th JUNE, at lunch time.

I will remind them of their time on the day, but it would be a great help if you could make sure they have any music, costumes or props with them on the day.

Many thanks,

Mrs Simpson
