We have had a fantastic week in Primary 2, with lots of excellent learning taking place!

We continued to learn about our senses and the children wrote fantastic senses poems about their favourite things.

Our new sounds this week were ‘ch’ and ‘tch’.  We also looked at plurals and learned when we should add ‘s’ to a word and when we should add ‘es’.  Ask your child and see if they can remember!

In Maths, we continued to work on the numbers from 0 to 100.  We did some skip counting in 2’s and looked at the number before and after.  We also carried out some problem solving work in small groups.

We were scheduled for outdoor learning on Thursday, unfortunately due to the terrrible torrential rain we didn’t manage to get out.  It did clear up in the afternoon but many of the children did not have suitable outdoor shoes, therefore we decided to wait until next week.  It would be amazing if the children could try to bring waterproof shoes and jackets for then.  Here are a few pictures of us enjoying the outdoors over the past few weeks:

We made self portraits using materials we found in the woodlands:

 

Big congratulations to our hot chocolate winner this week, Posy!  Posy is always very well behaved, helps around the classroom and works very hard.

Our new reading champion is Maja!  Maja is a fantastic example to other children, reading quietly and sensibly during ERIC time and showing great enthusiasm for reading.

We hope you all have a great weekend!
