P2/3 have been really enjoying carrying out money activities in numeracy. We have been calculating how much items cost, using coins to make different amounts and also giving change to one one another.

Cooking for The Great Fenwick Bake Off
We used our measuring and knife skills to make our entry for the school bake off. We can read and follow a recipe to prepare some delicious food using seasonal apples.
Numeracy
We went outdoors to measure objects that were 30cm long.
Cooking Apple cake
Primary 2 followed a recipe for apple cake and used their food preparation and maths skills to create a tasty cake.
Numeracy
P2/3 we’re enjoying learning lots about numbers to 100 and ordering numbers. We chose which ‘Thinking it through’ maths challenge we wanted to do, then played a race to 100 game.
Health Week – Open Morning
Thank you to all the parents/carers who came to join our Health Open Morning. We played fruit bingo, working out how many teaspoonfuls of sugar are in some foods and used the laptops to make a healthy lunch box.
Numicon
Primary 1 loved using numicon to help show them how to make amounts to 10p.
Money, Money, Money
P1 have been learning to recognise coins and are beginning to work with 1p and 2p to make totals up to 20p.
Global Citizenship
P1 have been learning about a child who lives in Kenya, Africa. We learnt that he lives in a house with only 1 room which measures 3m by 2.5m.
We went outside and measured how big his house would be.
10 pupils then lay down to see how much space everyone would have to sleep. P1 were surprised at how small it was!
Information Handling
P1 made a survey and visited P2, P3 and Primary 4 and 5 to find out what everyone’s favourite fruit was.
After collecting the information in tally marks, we have been working together to display the information in a pictogram.
