P2 This Week 29.3.19

We welcomed Miss Whigham back on Monday. We really enjoyed writing about the Easter story and learning the ear sound this week. In science, we recalled our learning about the body and Mr Keast was really pleased. In numeracy, we assessed our learning about time and money. We watched Authors Live on Thursday. It was all about Lauren Child and a story about a funny dog with Charlie and Lola. We then drew funny dogs of our own. Mrs Fraser enjoyed speaking to all our parents and sharing our progress.

Poppy was our pupil of the week this week and Sophie was our Star pupil for sharing strategies in number talks.

Happy weekend!

This Week in P2

We had great fun during Golden Time this week!

We enjoyed a performance by MK Duo, on Wednesday, when they played their guitars and mandolin for us. We have been continuing to learn to tell the time using o’clock, half past and quarter past…just ‘quarter to’ to conquer now!

We continue to enjoy using Sumdog on the computer to consolidate our numeracy.

We were learning about what kitchens were like in Granny’s day and watched a video from 1966 of a lady baking a cake. We spotted all the differences from then and now.

If any grandparents would like to come in and share what life was like as a child, please contact us through the school office. We would love to hear about games, toys and life in general- any objects or photos you have would also be welcomed!

We are almost finished learning to write the letters of the alphabet in capitals- we are getting really good at it. In literacy, we also learned what a homophone is and had fun playing a game about different homophones- ask us about it.

Have a nice weekend and enjoy any adventures that you get up to with Flat Stanley!
