In Literacy this week we have been revising more vowel digraphs. We made ‘oa’ and ‘ow’ words on our magnetic boards and wrote sentences containing ‘oo’ and ‘ew’ words. On Wednesday, Miss Harrison had a holiday and we became the teachers! We worked with a partner and gave them ‘oi’ and ‘oy’ words to make on their magnetic board. We had to help our partners and check that their spelling was correct by reading their words.
This week we also got our first reading book in P2. We were learning to use our knowledge of phonics and common words to read aloud. We spotted some of our vowel digraphs in our reading books!
In Numeracy and Mathematics, we continued to explore symmetry. We learned to complete a symmetrical shape when we could see half of it and we created our own symmetrical designs. Some of us also made our own symmetrical butterflies, created symmetrical pictures with our natural resources and made symmetrical patterns on our peg boards.
This week we also started working with numbers to 100. We learned to sequence numbers to 100 and then to find numbers after, before and between.
In PE this week, we played some warm up games and then we rotated round different stations. We were working on skipping, throwing and catching, running and dribbling.
On Thursday afternoon, we had paired reading with our P6 pals. They came down to our classroom and read us our new P2 reading books. Next week our P6 pals are going to help us with using the laptops.
Thank you for reading our blog post. We hope that you have a lovely weekend,
P2B and Miss Harrison xxx
