Busy week in P2 :-)

 

This week in literacy, we wrote our weekend news, learned about different rhymes and practised our spelling with the well–known strategy, ‘Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check’. Also, we did our personal statements (What I am best at, what I am proud of and what I have improved on.)

This week, we were taught about angles. We know now that an acute angle is under 90 degrees, a right angle is exactly 90 degrees and an obtuse angle is over 90 degrees, but below 180. Additionally, we practised some division and we were making 26 with the most efficient strategy possible.

Our continuous topic is Health and Wellbeing, Resilience. We know that a resilient person is one, who never gives up, always tries best, knows that after a ‘down’ in life, there is always an ‘up’. We were VERY resilient too – when we were doing the ‘mile a day ’. Although it was quite hot and doing 6 whole laps around the field is quite tiresome, we managed it in the end 🙂

As you may know, Pope Francis has asked everyone to pray to the Virgin Mary to end the coronavirus pandemic, therefore, we were praying to Mary, too.

It’s fun learning another language! This week we were still revising our knowledge of how to say numbers, colours and simple greetings in Spanish.

Lastly, we painted our very own pictures of the Eiffel Tower painting by George Seurat using paint and cotton swabs. Our paintings were very good, not as good as his!

 

Have a lovely weekend – and remember; we have Monday off! 🙂

Kind Regards,

A Flying Start to the New Term in P3!

P3a have had a great first week back at school after our Easter holidays. Have a look at what we have learned.

Maths: We have been learning all about Area. We know that area is the space a shape covers. We estimated the area of some places in our classroom and we drew some shapes to find the area. We know to count the squares that the shape covers and then use cm2 to label our answers.

Literacy: In Writing, we have been looking at Narratives. We know the structure of a narrative and we have used this to help us write a plan for our story. We had a go at writing a story about a lost pet. We have been learning all about fact and opinion and we know the difference between them.

HWB: We have been learning about self-regulation and coming up with our own calm down strategies when our emotions don’t feel so good.

Social Studies: We started our new topic ‘Climate Zones’ and completed a KWL grid about what we already know, what we want to learn and how we would like to learn about climate zones.

RERC: We have been learning about Jesus’ Resurrection. We listened to the story from the Bible and discussed it.

Expressive Arts: We have learned an artist called Romero Britto. We know he uses bright colours and patterns in his work. We enjoyed recreating his style in a lovely Spring picture.
