P3/4 – Literacy – Apostrophes
We had lots of fun playing a game learning about apostrophes for contractions. Each learner was given a card and then they had to race around the class to find their “contraction twin” – 1 card had the contraction and 1 card had the full form.
P3/4 – Nouns, Adjectives and Verbs
We have been learning about nouns, adjectives and verbs. Ask your child at home if they can explain what these terms mean and can they give examples.
In class, we were given 3 minutes in a team to sort the nouns, adjectives and verbs. Everyone worked hard and lots of good discussion took place.
We then used pictures as stimulus to create our own excellent sentence containing a noun, adjective and verb. Mrs Conetta was extremely impressed!

Our morning starters change weekly and we have been focusing on the alphabet. Each table has a different activity and then they rotate each day so everyone gets a chance to explore each activity.
