**Dates for Diary**
Nativity 2017
P1 and P2 will be performing ‘Lights, Camel, Action!‘ on Monday 11th December at 2pm. Each pupil can invite 2 members of his/her family to come and watch. More info will follow about parts, lines, costumes etc.
Christmas Fair
The Christmas Fair will be on Friday 1st December from 12:30pm. Once again, P1 and P2 will organise the toy stall so if your child has any unwanted toys in good condition, please send these in. Thanks in advance!
Homework this week
Spelling – List o– e. Magic ‘e’. This turns a short sounding vowel into a long sounding vowel. Children will be taught a little memory aid: ” The e at the end turns the ‘o’ into an ‘oh’.
Reading – as normal. Please send book bags in daily.
Numeracy – Number Tennis– please play this game with your child- it’s free and needs no resources! Pairs to ten; you say 6 and the child should say 4. You say 5 and the child should say 5. You say 7 and the child should say 3…and so on! The aim is for instant recall.
Numeracy Poster Design – Thanks SO much for the posters already handed in – what a talented , creative bunch we have in P2!
Sumdog Challenge – a new challenge is ready, called P2 Mix-up. This should cover add/subtract, some time and some fractions questions. 100 points to collect. Good luck!
PE – Wednesday (Athletics) and Thursday (PE with Mrs Duncan). The athletics sessions have been going very well with Craig and he has been working P2 very hard!
Topic – We have been reading ‘The Owl Who Was Afraid Of The Dark’ and should read chapters 3 and 4 this week. Our student teacher Miss Jeffcott has many more fun activities planned covering astronomy, nocturnal animals and science.
Thanks for your support,
Miss S Brunt
