Good morning Primary 2,  how are you feeling today?

Today we are going to be thinking about keeping healthy! I know lots of you will be enjoying doing exercise every day. I have been cycling a lot and going for long walks. Here is a  Fischy song you may remember to get you moving and to think about how you are feeling inside too.

We also have to choose healthy food to eat and the next song is full of lovely vegetables which are so good for you! I wonder which one in the song is your favourite?  Mine is the tomato!

Find an old piece of paper and get ready to crunch it up when the munch and crunch and scrunch sounds comes. When the popping sound comes make a pop with your lips! Make a lovely mmmmmmmm sound for the yummy bit!

You could make up your own verse about your favourite vegetable or fruit, let me know what you would choose to munch today!

Good Morning, everyone!

For today, here is a short story about a little dog called Fergus. Count how many er words  you can hear in the story.

Good Morning, everyone! Can you believe it is  the 1st of June today? I hope you have all had a lovely weekend and enjoyed our lovely weather.

Yesterday Mrs Boyle and I played golf which we haven’t been able to do for a long time. I wonder if any of you have managed to meet up with people you haven’t seen for a while?

Last week we had lots of examples of great work. We were learning about life cycles.

We have seen some very creative Minibeast art and craft.

Someone has been looking after caterpillars and one has turned into a butterfly.

I am sure you will continue to amaze us this week with all the wonderful things you are doing.

Here is this week’s learning grid.

This week we are practising the er sound in Phonics. Watch this clip to help you practise this sound.

If you have a dice you could play this er game. Throw the dice and whatever number you get, you have to read all the words in that line.
