This week was Book Week Scotland.  We were very lucky to all receive a bag full of goodies from the Scottish Book Trust which we were excited to take home and explore what was in them.

Throughout the week we did some book related activities including a listen and colour activity linked to some very well known book characters.

We also listened to a story every day, some of which were previous books gifted to children through the Read, Write, Count campaign and voted at the end of the week on which we was our favourite.

Our morning challenge this week has built on previous learning in P3 of comparing numbers using the greater than (>) symbol and the less than (<) symbol.  However, this week it was not numbers we were comparing, but simple calculations which we had to answer first before we could choose the correct symbol to put in to complete the statement.

Finally this week we have put our learning of electrical circuits from last week into action by building our own circuits using the necessary equipment.  We were all really excited when we could see the light bulbs lighting up and there was even some problem solving happening when some bulbs didn’t light up.
