Another great week in P2/1, lots of fantastic learning and we have been super proud of how hard everyone has worked.

In Math, we have been learning about length. P2 made their own metre tape and used it to measure things around the classroom to sort them into things that were less than a metre, about a metre and more than a metre. P1 used loose parts such as shells, cubes and lids to measure the size of things around the classroom. We also continued our learning on money by making amounts.

Ellie – I liked measuring crocodiles.

In Literacy, P1 learned the vowel digraph ‘ee’. They enjoyed drawing a lovely spring picture, making a sheep out of cotton wool.  P2 concentrated on words that have the ‘ear’ sound, they had to identify pictures that used the ear sound and colour them in.

P2 had lots of fun using the Ipads to research Sea Turtles. They then used all the information they found out to write an Information Report.

Hameedah – I liked researching on the Ipads.

For topic, we learned all about Sea Turtles. We made a craft Sea Turtle and also learned about the life cycle of a Sea Turtle. Here are some of the facts we learned about them:

Martyna – Sea Turtle eggs look like ping pong balls.

Alex – Sea Turtles have a hard shell.

JJ – Green Turtles can hold their breathe for 5 hours.

Khaleesi – Sea Turtles have no ears.

Abdul Hameed – There are 7 types of Sea Turtles.

Victoria – They eat green algae.

For H&WB this week we had  a visit from Mrs Lafferty and her baby girl Ayla. She taught us how to feed a baby and what babies need. Here are some of the things we learned:

Khaleesi – Babies need a nap.

Edwards – Babies have milk.

Daniel – When babies get teeth they can start to eat things like baby porridge.

Rose – Babies wear a nappy and we need to change their nappies.

We hope everyone has a great weekend!
