P2 Home Learning Grid for W/B 6.5.20

I hope you have all had a lovely holiday weekend and are ready to get on with some more home learning! Please find the learning grid for this week attached. As this is a shorter week I do not expect you to complete everything on this grid. Pick the activities which interest you and only do two and a half days worth. I have also included some more flash back 4’s as some parents were asking for them.

Please get in touch with me if you have any questions or need any help.

take care,

Ms King

P2 have been super busy with their home learning. It’s really great to see and hear how you are all getting on. I am so impressed with how motivated you all are. These are just some of the pictures I have received! If you sent in learning emails over the weekend I will reply to them shortly.

P1, 2/1, P2 Science Home Learning WB 4.5.20

Good morning everyone! I hope you are all well and had a lovely weekend. Thank you again for all the wonderful photos and videos you sent last week.

Once again I have sent your Science home learning tasks to your class teachers. This week we will be finding out about the different body parts of insects! What are the parts that make up an insect? What job does each part do? Read the power point titled ‘Insects and Bugs!’ and use this to help you complete the activity sheet where you have to label the different parts of an insect. If you are able to write a few sentences too, that would be great!

Just to remind you there are also lots of activities on the mini beasts home learning grid I sent you.

Have a great week!

Good afternoon everyone. I hope you had a lovely weekend and managed to enjoy some of the sunny weather.

I have sent this week’s science learning to your class teachers. Remember there are also lots of fun activities on the minibeast home learning grid. Thank you to everyone who sent photos of their work last week. I was very impressed by how creative you have all been! I would love to see some more of your work again this week. Perhaps you could take some photos of the all the different creatures you discover on your minibeast hunt?

Have a great week!

P2 Home Learning Reflection for W/E 24.02.04

Usually I have the children here with me to comment on what we have enjoyed learning during the week. As this is not possible I am going to use the learning comments and pics which have been emailed to me. Thank you to everyone who has emailed me their child’s learning this week. It is great to see that you are keeping busy with some home learning. So here goes with our first lockdown learning reflection…

Marine Biologist Job Application

I have received several applications for the Marine Biologist job. Don’t worry if you have not submitted your application yet, you have until Friday 1st May to email it to me. There have been some very good replies to the questions and great suggestions about which sea creatures to study, please see  below:

Why do you want to learn about the sea?

I really like dolphins and turtles and I really like to swim in the sea. I try to look after the sea by not putting plastic products in it. I don’t drop litter and I use a reusable water bottle. I also like to take care of animals in the sea like turtles.

All different types of sea animals and what the animals eat.

There are lots of interesting sea creatures and colourful fish I would like to learn about.

What sea creatures would you like to study?

There have been some good suggestions about which sea creatures to study. So far there is interest in turtles, dolphins, sting rays, eels and starfish!

What do you already know about that animal?

They are endangered and they are good swimmers.

Stingrays are flat with long tails some can sting you. Blue nose dolphins are the most popular in the sea. Eels are like worms but much bigger. Starfish are shaped like a star, on top they are rough and the bottom is smooth.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In  numeracy this week P2 have been busy making doubles, making equal groups and finding a half.  It is great to hear how children are making links with their learning. Here are some learning comments from one mummy:  used his new found knowledge of fractions to work out the correct spacing for new monkey bars we built in the garden…He also really enjoyed applying his new knowledge of fractions when cutting sandwiches for lunch.
