Good afternoon Primary 2/1. Another busy week has past. I have heard of and seen photos of lots of different learning this week such as making banana bread, taking part in science experiments, writing spelling words inside of shapes, having fair share tea parties, learning about question marks to learning tongue twisters.
P1’s Literacy learning has been focused around the ‘ear’ sound and the tricky word ‘once’. For literacy we have been writing our spelling words inside shapes, using musical instruments to help us sing our words, making beards and playing buried treasure.
In Numeracy and Maths the focus for this week was on sharing. We have been sharing food equally in order to feed the baby owlets, watching Elmo videos, holding tea parties for 3 toys or our family and sharing food equally and acting out the story of The Doorbell Rang.
P2’s focus in Literacy this week has been on the ‘oo’ spelling pattern, learning about and using question marks, using our senses to complete activities 3 and 4 from our observation alphabet outdoor learning booklets and learning the months of the year in French by watching a video then playing snakes and ladders.
In Numeracy and Maths the focus this week was on counting in 2s, 5s, 10s and adding equal groups. We have completed 2x table wheels, counting in 5s and 10s worksheets and took part in Friday Maths challenge which was provided by the BBC Bitesize and Premier League stars.
For our Under the Sea project we have been learning about different types of shells. We watched and listened to the Snail and the Whale by Julia Donaldson, tried to write our own riddles, learned the tongue twister she sells sea shells by the sea shore, drew pictures of shells, played Kim’s game and watched the video what are shells?
For science this week we have been exploring the life cycle of a chicken. We looked at a PowerPoint all about the different stages of the life cycle of a chicken, wrote about the life cycle of a chicken and made a chick hatching out of an egg.
Here are a selection of photos of the learning this week.
Have a lovely weekend.
