We’ve had a very busy and active week this week. It was Maths week in Scotland so we had a Maths challenge on Wednesday. We worked in groups and there were certain rules which hopefully the children will be able to tell you about. Each group had a rope with the ends tied together and they had to make various shapes, both 2D and 3D. They managed very well with the 2D shapes but we all struggled with the 3D shapes so had to call on the assistance of 2 Primary 7 pupils to help us. Thank you boys you were great with the P2’s.
We have also being busy doing other activities involving 3D shape, as well as continuing with ordering and sequencing in Number.
Mrs.Begarnie has been working on Energy in Science with Primary 2 as well as Hinduism in R.M.E.
In Phonics we’ve had fun with the sounds “ou” and “ow” in my group and Miss. Mudd’s group have been working on “ai” and “ay”. In writing we have been working on descriptions of landscapes, in preparation for writing postcards next week and the following week.
We have started looking at the Features of the Seaside and what is natural and what is man made. Wwe have also discussed what we hear, see, smell etc at the Seaside.
As it was Roald Dahl day on Wednesday we watched the live Puffin programme on the author and worked alongside the illustrator Quentin Blake to create our own monsters. Some brilliant creations. Well done P2B!!
We’ve used the netbooks this week but didn’t have our P6 Pals to help us this time.
So a busy week and now we can all enjoy a well earned rest over the long weekend. Have fun.
