This helps us identify which zone we are in, in relation to how we are feeling, for example we know the green zone is when we feel happy, calm and focused which means we are ready to learn. The blue zone is when we feel tiered, bored or sick. When we are in the yellow zone we may feel excited, worried or silly. The red zone is when we feel angry and out of control.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/public\/StNicholasPrimarySchool\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2021\/09\/24230947\/zones.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"20561\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/StNicholasPrimarySchool\/2021\/09\/24\/getting-into-the-zone-in-primary-2\/zones\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/public\/StNicholasPrimarySchool\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2021\/09\/24230947\/zones.png\" data-orig-size=\"940,788\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"zones\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/public\/StNicholasPrimarySchool\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2021\/09\/24230947\/zones-300x251.png\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/public\/StNicholasPrimarySchool\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2021\/09\/24230947\/zones.png\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-20561\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/public\/StNicholasPrimarySchool\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2021\/09\/24230947\/zones-300x251.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"251\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/public\/StNicholasPrimarySchool\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2021\/09\/24230947\/zones-300x251.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/public\/StNicholasPrimarySchool\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2021\/09\/24230947\/zones-768x644.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.glowscotland.org.uk\/wl\/public\/StNicholasPrimarySchool\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2021\/09\/24230947\/zones.png 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Miss Cortellessa<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Literacy During this short week in Primary 2 we have been learning to read and spell words with the \u2018ph\u2019 phoneme such as \u2018phone\u2019 \u2018photo\u2019 \u2018dolphin\u2019 and \u2018elephant\u2019.
