Numbers to 100!

We have been working really hard learning our numbers to 100. We have been learning what the numbers are and look like and how to identify the number before, the number after and the number between two other numbers i.e. What is the number between 80 and 82? Answer: 81. This can sometimes be tricky though, so we are trying to use tools to help us such hundred squares, and the class number line on our wall.


This is a link to a game to help us practise recognising numbers to 100 and identifying their correct place on a hundred square.

We are also working hard on finding 10 more than. This is a link to a game we play at school on the Smart board. The game times us while we identify 10 more than as quickly as we can. We like trying to beat our time. The best time in the class was 2 seconds!!!!

Our Class Assembly!!!

P2 Assembly- Be Yourself!

Friday 25th October 9.45 am

St. Cuthbert's School Hall

We are all very excited about our class assembly tomorrow. We have been so busy rehearsing lines, practising dances and making costumes and props. We hope to see lots of Mummy's, Daddy's, family and friends there to cheer us on.

Digraph fun!!

We have been practising lots of the different sounds and digraphs and we have enjoyed finding new ways of practising our sounds in Primary 2. We like listening to songs about sounds and playing interactive games. Here are some links to games you might like to play too.  Most of the websites mention the initial sounds (alphabet letters) and digraphs (2 letter sounds).

(this is a link to YouTube which has the Jolly Phonics digraph songs which will help you make the correct digraph sounds)

(choose sounds you wish to practise, this game encourages you to identify the correct sound as it reinforces the sound throughout the game)

(an American site which gives examples of all the initial sounds and some of the digraph sounds in the “Learn to Read” section. It also provides opportunities to read words and have them read back to you in the “Fun to Read section”)

Have fun!!!

Our Gym Days!!

We are really enjoying our gym sessions in Primary 2. We have been learning how to travel, jump and how to throw and catch a ball. We do lots and lots of running around during gym and it is really important we have our gym kits. Please help remind us to bring our gym kits on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
Thank you.
