In Primary 2/3 this week we have been really busy in lots of areas. Thank you for all the pictures that the children have sent in of their cress plants. Their growing skills are very impressive!
We’ve continued our learning about Food and Farming and had some super discussion in pairs in Science about the parts of a plant and what plants need to grow.
Read on for some of our highlights.
Harry – I liked changing tables because I’m a Whizz Kid now and it will be my last table in P2/3 before I move to P3.
Hasan – I liked painting a butterfly. Mine looked good and I learned symmetry.
Oma – I liked doing learning about the month of Mary in RE. We used paint to decorate the word ‘Mary’.
Maeve – I liked sorting living things into different categories.
Levente – I liked playing the symmetry game on the smartboard. I played it at home too.
(In Maths we have been exploring symmetry. Try this activity at home to help reinforce learning https://www.topmarks.co.uk/symmetry/symmetry-matching)
Alishba – I liked writing to Farmer Jess to thank her for coming to visit us.
Brooke – I liked being outside for PE and playing jacks and boules.
Rachel – I liked learning about empathy and learning challenges in class dojo.
Kuba and Andrew – I liked PE because we were jumping over the hurdles. I was good at the hurdles.
James – I liked running fast in the Daily Mile.
Annayah – I liked praying the ten rosaries.
Aaron – I liked designing pictures of Mary.
Matthew – my cress is growing really fast at home.
Michelle – I liked maths because I learned loads about symmetry.
Carly – I liked the literacy carousel because I made my words in playdough.
Maya – I liked when we were painting symmetrical butterflies and I liked learning lots of new things to say in Spanish. I liked High Five Spanish.
In Spanish this term, the children have planned their learning to develop their skills in asking questions and answers. Do ask your child what’s hey learned in Spanish this week. There are lots of great activities on the BBC languages website to help wth these skills.
Sneak preview! Next week in writing we’re writing to Mrs Purdie to tell her about all the things we like best at St Ninian’s. Have a chat with your child about this and they can share their ideas in Big Writing on Thursday.
Have a lovely weekend.
From Primary 2/3, Mrs Howley and Mrs Keegan
I loved this week because it was lots of fun and I’m looking forward to my presentation about food next week. 🤗
Looks like another busy week Carly has been using playdough at home to make words.
