Primary 2 – Afternoon

How did you get on this morning? Leave a comment on this blog or email us at wlpolkemmet-ps-primary2@westlothian.org.uk .

What a lovely day it is today! Have a look around outside, how many similes can you come up with. Remember, a simile is when you compare two different things by saying one is ‘like’ or ‘as’ something else.  For example:

The clouds are as fluffy as candy floss.

I have compared the clouds to candy floss.

Another example: The sequins on my t-shirt are like sparkling diamonds.

How many can you come up with?

Outside Bingo – Explore your surroundings or when you go for a daily walk, look out for these things on the list. Even try and find the impossible!

Spelling – Pick 5 words from your word wall that you don’t know very well.  Try writing them in something messy like flour, foam, mud etc.

Enjoy the sunshine!

This morning for Literacy, can you write about your weekend? Write your news about the sunny weather. I spent the weekend in my garden painting my fence. What did you do? Remember to use capital letters, finger spaces and full stops. Try to sound out any words you are not sure of or use your word wall to help you if you can. Mrs Reid!

 

Mrs Grenfell has some RME and French activities for you to complete this morning too. Here they are…

RME – Shabbat

Last week – you compared Shabbat to your own celebrations.

Today – design a meal for a Jewish person to eat when they celebrate Shabbat. If you need to re-watch the clip, the link is below:

P1, P2 and P3 window challenge

Afternoon boys and girls,

When out on our permitted daily exercise we have noticed all of your lovely rainbows and teddy bears. Some of you have made other things for your windows for other children to spot. So we would like to set you all a challenge.

Each week we would like you to decorate your window with some of your lovely artwork using a different theme. This weeks theme is …

Fairytales

 

Can you draw pictures of rapunzel or Goldilocks and the 3 bears for your window? What about Jack in the Beanstalk or the 3 Little Pigs.

Stick them in your window along with your rainbows for all the children and adults to spot when they go on their permitted daily walk.

Can’t wait to see them!

Mrs Melia, Miss Beaton, Mrs Reid, Mrs Bashir, Mrs Docherty and Mrs Harding 🙂
