P3/4 – Book Week Scotland

Leave a comment

P3/4 have enjoyed Book Week Scotland.

We have loved having visitors in to our classroom to read to us – thank you to P7 pupils, parents and author, Hannah Willow.

We thoroughly enjoyed reading ‘My Police on Patrol’ and meeting the kids officers with their car and police horses!

P3 pupils had a great morning with their families completing activities and receiving their Read, Write, Count bags.

P4 had fun making origami bookmarks.

The mobile library visited us this week too.

P3/4 – ICT

Leave a comment

Today during ICT, we were learning about the keys on the keyboard and basic features within Word.

Ask us about the shift key, the enter/return key and space bar.

We had to find the capital letters on the keyboard to type the alphabet in lower case, then use the shift key to make the letters capital.  We also changed the font, the font size and colour of our spelling words which we typed into the document.

P3/4 RAINFOREST PLANTS

Leave a comment

P3/4 scanned QR codes to access different websites on our iPads to find out information about rainforest plants.

Things we learnt:

  • “The trees in the rainforests can be called the lungs of the planet.”
  • “They [the trees] take in carbon dioxide and give out oxygen.”
  • “Some leaves have drip tips.”
  • “Plants can grow without soil.”
  • “Some trees can grow to 200 feet.” – Mrs Conetta converted this to metres and told us that this would be 60 metre sticks tall!
  • “There are some plants that eat flies!”
