Primary Two have been very busy this week. We have been learning all about:

• Literacy- We have been learning to write Acrostic poems. We wrote one all about fireworks. This term we are learning all about the ‘magic e’ rule (long vowel sounds) within phonics, we have been working very hard on our activity stations. We have also been learning all about adjectives to make our sentences more exciting.
• Maths- Over the past fortnight we have been learning all about 2d shape. We are building on from what we learned in P1 by learning about the different properties of 2d shapes. We have also spent some time investigating patterns that 2d shapes can make. We went outside and made some of our own using sticks and leaves.
• Topic- This week we have been learning all about light sources. We also learned all about the phases of the moon. We are keeping a moon diary to investigate the pattern of the moon phases.
• We have been spending some time working with P1 and Mrs Taylor on our Nativity performance. We have picked up the songs well and are starting to learn our lines too. (Please continue to practice these at home.)
