Our first term in Primary 2 has been so much fun already!
This year, in World Around Us our first topic is all about houses and homes. What a brilliant way to get to know all about our local area! We even managed to venture down to Stranocum to explore what different houses, homes, shops and businesses are in our local surroundings. James Chesnutt, the owner of Chestnut Animal Feeds met us along our journey and told us all about the Mill and its history.
We have also:
In Year 2, we love to pull the welly boots on and take our learning outdoors. We particularly enjoy Welly Wednesday where we spend all day learning in nature. We have enjoyed building our own bug hotels, birds nests and even digging in dirt as we search for worms.
We have also:
In Literacy we have been revising all of our sounds from Primary 1 and also learning some new digraphs. The children have been learning that a digraph is two letters that makes the one sound.
We are also enjoying our Shared Reading time together and have been learning all about The Three Little Pigs Architctural Tale, Iggy Peck the Architect, In Every House On Every Street and A Place Called Home.
In Numeracy we have been learning all about the numbers 10-16. We love to practice our numbers using a vareity of engaging activites. This helps us to remember to form our numbers correctly and count a set of items carefully.
