This week we have learned about Amazing 8, working as a team to make astronauts, we learned about ‘u’ and ‘l.’  We learned about Remembrance Day.  We watched a short video and then made poppy pictures.  We made posters to tell people about the importance of not bullying.  We also learned about the Sun.

We have enjoyed playing in the courtyard with the mud kitchen, water and bikes.  We make handprint aliens, space rockets and have really liked playing with the moon sand and the Playmobil space rocket.

Next week we will learn about number 9 and two more sounds.

We have started to learn about adding.  We know that you have 2 numbers and you put them together and see how many it makes.

We have enjoyed learning about all the astronauts that have been in space and on the moon, making little astronauts, the sand pit, junk models, maxi-fun and playing with the pipets.

We are learning about Space this term.  We are looking forward to learning about the planets and making our big space rocket.  We will also be learning about 2D and 3D shapes.

This week we have  been finding jewels and gems in the sandpit.  We have learned the sounds m and d and Snappy Six.  We made line drawings of our houses with Mrs Johnston in Art.  We had a visit from Joan, Signe’s Gaggie, to tell us about what school was like when she was little  and also a visit from Yufeng Lei who is going to be coming to our school to help us learn Mandarin.  We have really enjoyed playing with the Lego and thinking about numbers at our challenge table.  We also got 3 new books from Miss Spall which we read in class then voted on which one was our favourite.

 

Next week we will be thinking about all the sounds that we have learned so far and we will be learning a new number.

This week we have learned the ‘n’ sound and all about Butterfly 3.  We have been listening to Roald Dahl’s story of the Enormous Crocodile and enjoyed a pop-up French story about Boucle D’or.

 

This week we have enjoyed doing Show and Tell, crafting, the morning walk, the playdough challenge, making words with our sounds and drawing with the chalk pens.

 

Next week we would like to learn how to count forwards and backwards, make some playdough and make it sparkly, learn about Feathery Four and learn some more sounds.

Primary 3 being teachers!

Today, primary 2 were learning about division for the first time. After spending some time discussing it as a class, every P2 paired up with two P3s who showed them how to do division using cubes. The P3s were fantastic at explaining and helping their classmates figure out the workbook page too. I’m very proud of how well everyone managed to listen to each other. It’s great to have experts in the class when you’re learning a new skill, P2 are very lucky!

3 times table fortune tellers!

Today P3 started learning their 3 times table. They worked in groups of 4, and followed instructions to make a 3 times table fortune teller! We managed to come up with lots of different ways to play with the fortune teller, and everyone did a fantastic job of explaining their rules. I was really impressed with everyone, especially for how well they worked together to follow the tricky instructions!
