Fraction Fanatics in P1/2!

This week P1/2 have been revising all of the sounds we have learned and we have also been working on the vowel house, sorting the pictures into the correct places and practising writing the sounds for each section of the vowel house.  We have also been looking at ordering the letters of the alphabet, rolling sound dice and working out if it makes a real word or not (win it or bin it) and we made sentences using our velcro word mats.

In maths, we have continued to practise our adding and subtraction.  We also learned about fractions this week and know that to cut something in half you need to cut it into two equals pieces and to cut something into quarters you need to cut it into four equal pieces.  We made our own paper cookies and chose to cut them into either halves or quarters, we did a good job!

We even used lolly sticks to make tally marks to make different numbers.  Conor and Chloe took on the tricky challenge and chose numbers up to 20 to make!  Well done!
