This week, some of the children in Primary 2 enjoyed their very first session with their Primary 7 reading buddies. The children will read on a Monday and Thursday each week. Thank you to the children in Primary 7 for doing a great job!
The class are really enjoying their science topic about the five senses and have participated well in all our activities throughout. Here are a few of the children’s reflections about their learning:
Our sense of touch helps us to feel if things are hard or soft. (Akruti)
In the middle of your eye there’s a pupil and it helps you to see. (Holly)
Your tongue helps you to taste.(Maddie)
Your senses work with your brain. (Cali)
Our senses help us to keep safe. (Arya)
In Numeracy we have counted number sequences to 50, explored place value using tens and ones and added within 20. Through Number Talks, we have been sharing the different ways we work out addition problems.
In Literacy we have been learning about ‘magic e’ with a focus on the ‘i-e’ sound. We sang the magic e song and completed some word building activities. We learned that magic e makes the vowel sound say it’s name.
In Art, we looked at and discussed pictures of Autumn scenes and colours. We then explored colour mixing to create our own Autumn paintings. We also completed our Christmas card designs.
