Dear Parents and Carers,<\/p>\n

Primary 2\/1 have been working hard this week and are also very excited about the Christmas period (and a special daily visit from a mischievous Elf called Jingle).<\/p>\n

Numeracy<\/strong><\/p>\n

Primary 2s are learning about Arrays and finding different ways to experiment with this using the Smartboard, counters, whiteboards and Numicons.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Primary 1s have been introduced to more Mathematics and learning about Weight and the concepts of Lighter and Heavier.\u00a0 The children have enjoyed using classroom objects to experiment with this and deepen their learning.<\/p>\n

Literacy<\/strong><\/p>\n

Primary 2s have been using different techniques to practise their spelling words. Primary 1s have been learning the sounds ‘w’ and ‘v’ and been trying out more cvc (consonant vowel consonant) words e.g. van and win etc.<\/p>\n

Social Studies<\/strong><\/p>\n

In Topic Primary 2\/1 are enjoying learning about Pirates and made a super effort in creating their own Treasure Maps after learning about the saying\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 ‘X Marks The Spot’ and how this was made popular by Robert Louis Stevenson in his famous book Treasure Island from 1883.\u00a0 The children are keen to read this book when they are older.\u00a0 The children added great detail to their maps, such as, volcanoes, bridges, rivers, palm trees etc.\u00a0 The children then crushed their sheets to make it look ‘authentic’ and we discussed this fantastic word too!<\/p>\n
