In Primary 2, we enjoy a soft start each morning to help us settle into school, play with friends, and get ourselves ready for the day. Before we start our lessons, we take time to go through the daily timetable and discuss the learning that we are going to take part in that day and give opportunity for the class to ask questions about their week.
We try our best every day to read and write common words, learn new sounds and apply our knowledge of our sounds to our reading and writing. We also enjoy exploring numbers, making connections to our core learning through our topic lessons and reflect on our learning each week. We work hard to demonstrate our listening targets and work our way up the listening ladder. We enjoy our digital lesson with Mrs Pretorius on a Monday, and our PE lessons on a Wednesday and Thursday.
Our buddies in primary 4 spend time with us every other week helping us read, practise our spelling, or play numeracy games with us.
We have been learning about our rights and how important these are to us. We have created our class charter and have chosen to focus on the following articles in our class:
- Article 12 – we have the right to have an opinion,
- Article 28 – we have the right to learn,
- Article 31 – we have the right to play
We are working hard to earn pebbles in order to be in for a chance of winning the raffle for a prize at the end of the week! Pebbles are earned for lots of different reasons e.g., by showing good listening, using manners, being kind and respectful to others and showing good focus during learning. We are all striving to get our names on the ‘recognition board’ to meet our weekly target for things like following instructions, working together as a class, good sportsmanship, being a good friend, etc. We can also earn House Points for being Ready, Respectful and Safe around the school and playground.
We have had a great start to Primary 2 and we look forward to carrying that momentum throughout the rest of the school year!
