Primary 2 – Thursday 30th April 2020

Good morning Primary 2! I hope you are all having a great week so far! Here are some activities for today.

Special Activity

Today, Blair Drummond Safari Park are hosting a live Facebook video to give you a chance to meet their Sea Lions! You will have the chance to find out fun facts about the Sea Lions and they might even perform a few tricks! The live video starts on their Facebook page at 12pm. Have fun meeting the Sea Lions!

Numeracy

Think back to the strategies you were using yesterday. Did you find the most efficient strategy to work out the answers? The most efficient strategy you could have used yesterday would be to double the numbers. Keeping that in mind, use your knowledge of doubles to answer these questions:

  • 9 + 8
  • 6 + 5
  • 2 + 1
  • 8 + 7
  • 12 + 11

Discuss the strategies you have used with someone at home and see if they used the same strategy as you!

Art

This week, we have learned a bit about people who may help us in different emergency situations. We have also been learning about what situations may be an emergency and what we should do if we find this is the case. Your job is to create a poster which shows all the information you have learned about emergency situations. Remember to make your poster eye-catching and make sure you can read all the information you have written.
