Primary 2 Homework 15.3.22

Hello,

The reading homework and spelling words went home today.

Our sound of the week is ‘y’ as in ‘sky’ and the spelling words are:

win     sit     stop     fry     dry

crying     sky     more     before     myself

Numeracy: The class have entered the Midlothian sum-dog challenge, every correct answer counts! See how many correct answers you can get on sum-dog to add to our class tally.

Many Thanks,

Mrs Lynch

Primary 2 Homework 8.3.22

Hello,

Reading homework has gone home in reading bags today, alongside this weeks spelling list.

Our sound this week is ‘igh’. Please practise the following words at home:

lip     his     went

night     high     might     light

any     many     frightening

We have been looking at how we can work out how we can count groups of objects. For example: 6 pairs of gloves- how many gloves would that be? We can count in 2s to find the answer more quickly:

2+2+2+2+2+2=12 gloves    OR 6 groups of 2 could be written as

6 x 2=12 gloves (6 lots of 2 making 12). Try the hit the button game on topmarks to practise the 2 times table. (link below)

Hello,

I hope everyone had a lovely February break.

The homework for this week:

Numeracy: We have been practising skip counting in 2s, 5s and 10s. Primary 2s have a go at counting in 2s, 5s or 10s to an adult at home. For an added challenge start at a number other than 0. For example: start at 12 and count up in 2s or start at 50 and count up in 10s

Literacy: The reading books and spelling words have gone home today in reading bags. Our sound of the week is “ay”

The learning trios will take place next week. Thank you to everyone who has returned their date preference. If you are still to do so please could you let me know as soon as possible which date you would prefer.

Thanks for all your support,
