Another Week in Primary 2!

What another busy week in primary 2! 

We have been learning lots of new words, we love doing our words and using our words in sentences. We use our whiteboards to make our words and we learn more each week! This week we have also been focusing on our numbers to 100 in Maths and revising all of our sounds in phonics! We have been doing our numbers "up higher to 100" and we really enjoyed it! We loved going up to 1 billion in our number song! We started doing a little bit of times tables in 2s and it was tricky! We especially loved counting to 100 with the big squares!  We have also been learning subtraction! We found it a little tricky but we found the answers in the end!

Working on our letters!
Making our phonic words using our new beads!

Going on a letter hunt to find our words!

One of our phonic words
for this week!
Using our Data Handling info
to make Venns!








I wonder if we made it all the way to 100?!
Of course we did! First time using the big numbers!

Writing our numbers as high as we can!
Fed up with our teddies being in a jumble!
We sorted them out and made "patterned walls
to keep them organised!"

Practise makes perfect!
Organising our money!
No magnetic boards left - so we just
used the carpet!





I wonder what this weeks sound could be?!

Practising tall and small letters!

Number Match!
Letter Hunt!


Using my Busy Book for the first time!
Keep trying and we will get there!




I wonder what we could buy with all these coins?! Especially now we know them all!!

Stay tuned for more news from Primary 2!

P2's First Blog!

Primary 2 have had a very busy few weeks!!

Halloween

In Primary 2a we celebrated Halloween by making Mischievous Mummies and Pattern Pumpkins! Miss Hampson put these up in class for everyone to see! We loved cutting out the pumpkins and  using toilet roll for our mummies!

























Bonfire Night

During the week of Bonfire Night we learned all about staying safe while going out to watch the fireworks and we also learned all about Guy Fawkes and why we celebrate Bonfire Night! We made safety posters and bonfires to show our learning! The children said they "loved putting the fireworks on their posters!" Another of our favourite parts was making a bonfire using coloured paper, paint and glitter!




Dinosaurs

In Primary 2 we have been learning about dinosaurs! We have learned about different types of dinosaurs, different time periods and fossils! We loved using the little brushes to brush the sand off of the fossils! We learned all about palaeontologists and what they do! We also looked at different ways of how dinosaurs became extinct!








Assembly


We wanted to show off all of the information we have learned about dinosaurs so we planned an assembly to display all of our work! We shouted out facts to mums, dads, grannies, grandpas and lots more visitors! We held up all our art work and sang some dino songs! We were very excited to talk about dinosaurs and it was "all very good!" Some of us were a little nervous because everyone was watching BUT we still enjoyed it a lot!
