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 🙂

Mrs Kane

Big Pedal will take place next week (w/b 25th March). P2G should place their bikes on the railings at the corner of Miss Finnigan’s classroom (not along the narrow path). We will get the chance to cycle every day. All children are required to wear a helmet whilst cycling or scooting. Can you please check that your child’s bike is suitable for them i.e. their saddle is at the correct height, handlebars are straight). Thanks 🙂

Miss Grant

P2G have been learning about telling the time. We learned about o’clock, half past and even challenged ourselves by trying some activities on quarter past and quarter to! We had great fun testing each other and it has been great to see the children referrring to the time more in class.

Today, we had the exciting task of testing our cars. We adjusted our wheels and adapted our cars to make them go down a ramp and travel as far as possible. We really enjoyed this and it was great to see our cars in action!

A huge thanks to Alan, our engineer, who has helped us through the project. Below are the three cars who travelled the furthest with their creators!

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.

During Big Pedal next week, we are delighted to have the help of Mr Neill to advise the children on how to make sure their bikes and scooters are safe.  We appreciate Mr Neill giving us his time.Thank you

Good Morning everyone!

Reading

The children have been issued with their new reading book. The children have already been spotting ‘ou’ (as in out) words in their reading books.

Maths

The children have been issued with a counting in tens worksheet to complete. I have directed them to their hundred squares in their diaries to help them with this.

Spelling

Our sound this week is ‘ou ’. The spelling words we chose were:

Red Group: house, about, couch and mouse.

Blue Group: pound, mouthful, voucher and proud.

Our common words this week are:
