In Literacy we continued our work on magic e with a focus on o-e words. We also wrote poems about our senses. In numeracy we were learning the strategy of counting on from a given number in addition. Also making links in our learning. If 7 and 2 makes 9 then 17 and 2 makes 19 and so on. We had fun creating 3D shapes.

The children also enjoyed a  yoga session in PE using Cosmic Kids yoga.  We tested our taste buds to see how good we were at detecting sweet, sour, bitter and salty flavours. On Thursday we went to the church for the Harvest Service and Arya, Poppy and Holly read the poem beautifully, while we all enjoyed singing.

 We have been showing compassion through our acts of kindness this week. We have held open doors, shared toys and resources, helped friends when they are hurt and cared for others.

We have learned about our sense of touch and created feely pictures to demonstrate our understanding of the words; hard, soft, rough and smooth.

In numeracy we have added within 20 and furthered our knowledge of 2D shape.

On Thursday we had fun dancing with the instructor from the charity Lepra which we have been fundraising for.

P2 Learning Reflection

In literacy we have been busy learning the ‘ea’ sound. We completed a word building and writing activity. When reading at home, see how many ‘ea’ words the children can find in their reading book! We have also been spotting nouns in stories.

In numeracy we began counting and sequencing numbers to 50 and the children are becoming more confident in using their number squares to help them. Everyone now has their Sumdog logins which are stuck inside our reading records.

In RME we have been thinking about the theme of friendship. We enjoyed reading the story of ‘Starry Eyed Stan’. We discussed the qualities of a good friend and how we can be kind to others.

In Science, we started learning about our five senses. We began by exploring our sense of sight, investigating the different parts of the eye and how our eyes work.

We have been working hard this week to settle into our new routines. Everyone has a new reading book. In numeracy we have been doubling and halving numbers to 20. We got our Sumdog logins ( same as previously) which are stuck inside our reading records. There is a contest on this week for us to take part in – so have a go if you have any spare time! A few children did not have their reading records today- so will get their sumdog logins on Monday.
