Thank You Primary 2A

Well done to everyone for all your hard work during remote learning. You have all put in so much effort to your learning and I continue to be impressed with all your amazing work every day. It is great that we were able to continue with our learning that we would have been doing in school and it has been amazing to see so much creativity. I am looking forward to continuing our learning journey when we go back to school on Monday.

Thank you also to all the parents and carers for your support on Seesaw. Your children wouldn’t have been so successful without your continued support and patience.

 

I am so proud of all of you and I am looking forward to seeing you on Monday. Stay safe and have a lovely weekend:)

Love from your very proud teacher,

Miss Marra

Another Great Week of Home Learning in P2A

Dear parents/carers,

What a fantastic week this has been! We have had lots of snow but there has still been so much effort with our home learning. In Literacy, we have been learning magic e words with an o and we have been learning to find information in a text in Reading Comprehension. I have been so impressed with your thoughtful answers to the inference questions too. You worked super hard in Writing this week and you wrote the ending to your imaginative stories. Well done for working hard to use capital letters, finger spaces, full stops and connectives.

 

In Numeracy, we learned more about fractions and making equal groups to divide by 4. There have been some amazing photos of your equal groups uploaded to Seesaw to show how hard you are working. There has been so much creativity and well done to everyone who has been working on the remote learning grid tasks too. Jaysiel deserves a mention for her very expressive performance of “Chokey Chant” from Matilda the Musical which was one of your Drama tasks on the grid.

 

Harris has been doing some fantastic word building to practise spelling magic e with an o. Well done for working so hard to read and write your words Harris:)

 

Isabelle has been working hard to describe arrays in Number Talks this week. Well done for your hard work Isabelle:)
Look at Frankie’s amazing efforts with this week’s STEM challenge from Mrs Beattie. This is so impressive, Frankie! Well done for working so hard and you have shown great teamwork with mum and Danny to create this heart structure. Fantastic work:)
This is Evie’s super division task. She worked hard to describe the equal groups and write down how many objects were in each group. Brilliant Numeracy work Evie:)
This really impressed me this week! Isla’s wrote a fantastic ending to her imaginative story with capital letters, finger spaces and full stops. She even used some connectives too. Well done for writing such a creative story and for really working hard to develop your confidence in Writing:)
Well done to everyone for all your hard work this week. I am so proud of you all. Thank you also to parents and carers for your continued support. Have a lovely holiday everyone:)

Amazing Learning in Primary 2A

 

 

Wow! What an amazing week of learning we have had. Well done for all your hard work this week as always. I am so proud of all your efforts and your positive attitude towards your learning. This week, we have been learning to read and write magic e words with an i and we have also been working hard on Reading Comprehension. In Writing, we have been learning to write the midde of a story, following on from our introductions from last wek. Your stories are looking fantastic so far! I can’t wait to read your endings. In Numeracy, we have been working hard in number talks and we have been learning about fractions this week. You found some great examples of halves and quarters at home.

 

Here are a few examples of your wonderful work.

 

 

Jaysiel wrote a fantastic middle to her imaginative story with capital letters, finger spaces and full stops. She also used connectives and wrote great descriptions. Well done Jaysiel:)

 

Max worked hard to calculate the missing addends in Numeracy this week. He did a great job counting on to work out the answers. Well done for working hard on this Max and for creating some of your own missing addend problems.

 

Ollie worked hard on this magic e roll, write and read task. You worked hard Ollie and you managed to write and read some new magic e words too. Well done!

 

This is Evie’s creative approach to this week’s STEM challenge. It has been amazing seeing everyone working so hard to be creative with these challenges every week. This week, we had to build a bridge using construction or any other materials at home. Well done for thinking outside the box Evie! It looks like your bridge was definitely strong enough for Nala to stand on. Fantastic work!

 

Keep up your hard work everyone. Have a lovely weekend and I will see you all on Monday:)

 

Amazing Hard Work in P2A

Well done for all your hard work again this week. You are all putting so much effort into your learning and I am so impressed. Thank you to everyone who has been supporting your child at home too. This is really appreciated.

 

We have been working so hard this week in Literacy, Numeracy, Health and Wellbeing and also on our remote learning grid activities. Our new sound this week was magic e with an everyone worked hard to practise reading and writing their words. In Writing, we wrote an introduction to an imaginative story and I was proud of everyone’s efforts with this. Our remote learning grid this week focused on a “Scotland” theme for “Scottish Week.” Here are some excellent examples of learning below.

 

Alex worked hard to practise spelling magic e words with his Lego. Well done for working so hard. I am very impressed with your amazing work with the Lego bricks:)

 

Everyone has worked so hard on writing an introduction to a story this week. Well done everyone:) This is Isabella’s introduction. She used capital letters, finger spaces and full stops. You also may spot a connective in her sentences. Fantastic work Isabella:)

 

Max worked really hard to divide by 3 this week and he applied his learning really well to pencil tasks. Well done for working so hard on this Max:)

 

Jasmine worked so hard to sequence these numbers in order from smallest to largest. Well done for you hard work Jasmine:) You sequenced all the numbers in the correct order.

P2A Remote Learning

You have been working so hard on your learning at home Primary 2A! I have been so impressed with your hard work on Seesaw and in class this week. In Literacy, we have been learning to read and write soft g words. You all worked so hard to write a fantastic description of a family member this week. I saw lots of brilliant connectives which was our Success Criteria challenge. Next week we are going to begin writing an imaginative story.

In Numeracy we have been learning to make equal groups. You all know this means you were dividing and this week, we have been learning to divide by 2. You used concrete materials at home to practise sharing equally and I was impressed with how hard you all worked on this task. We have also continued with our number talks too.

I am glad so many of you asked for more French target tasks and you all put in so much effort to your French learning this week. I have loved seeing everyone being so creative in your learning. Here are some examples of your amazing work on Seesaw.

Alex worked really hard to build a house for the Three Little Pigs. This was Mrs Beattie’s STEM challenge this week. Super effort Alex!

 

Isla used her nail varnish collection to spell soft g words. I love her creativity and she has a very impresive collection. Super spelling Isla:)

 

Harry read this book himself at home this week. I am very proud that you were practising your reading Harry and choosing to read a book for enjoyment:)

Jaysiel worked hard to sequence numbers from smallest to largest in Numeracy. This was a great challenge and you could order all the numbers in the correct order. Well done:)

 

Have a great weekend everyone:)

Aargh Primary 2A!

In Primary 2A, we have been learning about pirates as our Topic. We were very excited to receive a letter from a real pirate who is going to help us with our learning.

We decided what we would like to learn about pirates and some of our questions have been answered in the interesting non-fiction book we have been reading. We even learned about some real famous pirates from the past. Blackbeard sounded the scariest. We wrote fantastic descriptions about him in Writing last week. Well done to Oscar C, Matthew and Isabella who were our amazing Writing stars last week. I wonder who will be the Writing stars this week?

Our pirate also asked us to learn about why pirates have flags on their ships. Well done to Hugo who knew that the reason for this is so that other ships would know pirates were approaching and the flag would scare them. Our pirate asked us to design a new flag for her ship using black paper and oil pastels or chalk. We used no more than two colours each and we did not share to make sure everyone was safe. We used pictures of pirate flags on the Smart Board to help us with our designs. We worked very hard and did an amazing job! We are still waiting to find out the winner. That will be a very hard decision.

Primary 2A Phonics

Good afternoon everyone,

Please see below for our new sounds this week. We are learning “igh” and  “y” and some pupils are also continuing to practise CVC words. Please support your child to read and write the words in their list. One of the activities the children have enjoyed the most in class is going on a word hunt, with their words written on small pieces of paper for them to find and read.

Thank you for your continued support.

Good afternoon,

I hope you have all had a lovely weekend. Please see below for this week’s Phonics sounds. We are learning “ou” and “ow” in class week. Please support your child to practise reading and writing these words at home. In class, we focus on sounding out to blend the sounds together. If the children are confident reading and writing the words, they may wish to write sentences with their words to challenge them further.
