The final week in January has been a busy one in Primary 2/3.
P2 have continued their investigations into people in the past with local significance and investigated James Young this week. Look our for the fabulous fact files which they have produced!
P3 have continued with rehearsals for their show and it is looking great. The show promises to be fantastic!
Everyone is looking forward to Safer Internet Day next week. There are lots of great resources for parents at https://www.vodafone.co.uk/mobile/digital-parenting/archive .
This week has seen the start of our time topic in maths. We began by looking at the seasons of the year then the months of the year. Everyone loved learning the months of the year through this song.
We also had fun sequencing the months of the year by playing this game.
Now that we’re all confident with the seasons and the months we have moved on to telling the time to o’clock and half past – quarter to and quarter past will follow this week. We found this website useful to help us work on these times.
In reading we had the opportunity to reflect on our recent reading. Everyone chose their favourite character from their reading book and drew their character then explained why they liked that character best. It was great to see so many amazing adjectives in this writing.
Everyone was so excited to arrive in school on Friday and to see that our Mighty Writer board had been mounted on the wall so we can use it as much as we wish!
We had a fabulous discussion about feedback on our learning this morning. 23 of the 24 children decided that they liked spoken feedback rather than written feedback on their work so we’re trying to build more time for this into our classroom. We’ve explored Glow this week and tried recording feedback on our OneNote profiles- look out for more of this over the next few weeks.
Have a lovely weekend!
