Primary 2 have been enjoying their quiet afternoons but are looking forward to helping P1 settle into full days next week. P2 have been reading in groups and working together on alphabet tasks. They’ve been really keen to start their spelling tests and dictation work … just like P2 last year and have been learning how we need to set this out in our jotters. They have worked together on practical capacity work in Maths and have been developing their estimation skills. Topic work has been centred around lessons on Our Body and we’ve been keeping our bodies fit in class PE.
Everyone has enjoyed working together to explore capacity and trying out our estimation skills.
Dictation takes a lot of concentration to listen to the words and sounds and write them down.
We set out a cube every time we heard Mrs Smith say a word in the sentence.
The cubes helped us to remember how many words we needed to write and helped us to see where we should put a finger space.
Mrs Tait helped P2 to learn about the major organs of the body.
In class P.E. we have been working on listening to and following instructions first time and developing our ball skills.
