Primary 2 have had another busy week! 

 We are enjoying the Garden Centre for our structured play in the open area.  We have been designing seed packets, planning and designing gardens and  role playing in our ‘pond’ .  We especially like the Garden programme that we can use on the laptops through Colour Magic.

 This week we have been revising our addition to 20.  We are working hard to learn our number stories; then we will not have to use number lines or our fingers!

Example:   Story of 11

 11 + 0 = 11             11 – 0 = 11

10 + 1 = 11             11 – 1 = 10

9 + 2 = 11            11 – 2 = 9

8 + 3 = 11           11 – 3 = 8

7 + 4 = 11          11 – 4 = 7

6 + 5 = 11          11 – 5 = 6

5 + 6 = 11          11 – 6 = 5

4 + 7 = 11          11 – 7 = 4

3 + 8 = 11           11 – 8 = 3

2 + 9 = 11          11 – 9 = 2

1 + 10 = 11          11 – 10 = 1

0 + 11 = 11           11 – 11 = 0

 We have been learning about the lifecycle of an apple tree.  We managed to find the seeds inside our apple core! Now we know what happens to these tiny seeds.

 Please bring in a plastic bag next week to take finished work home.
