Weekly Update w/b: 22.09.25

Another short week this week!

This week has been Maths Week Scotland and the theme this year was Wild Maths! 

Maths Week 2024: Wild Maths - Maths Week Scotland

P4H and P4W teamed up for some maths fun this week, here is some of what we got up to 🙂

Measuring

We took our learning outside to look at different ways to measure. We used meter sticks, as well as non-standard units such as sticks and feathers!

Times Tables

We used the time outside to find different ways to practise our times tables, this included times table hopscotch.

Symmetry

To extend our knowledge of symmetry we got to use Minecraft Education to try and create the other half of different shapes and buildings. The children were a lot better at navigating the world than Miss Day and have taught me lots!

Shape

We also explored shape outside to create tally charts on all the different shapes we could see. We found out the school is made up from A LOT of rectangles, but we didn’t have time to count them all (even though some tried!)

Weekly Update w/b: 15.09.25

The first of 2 short weeks, but P4H were still busy getting lots done.

Literacy

We have been continuing to work on our guides, using the laptops to research an area to write a guide on, taking notes preparing to create a powerpoint with all the information we have gathered.

Numeracy

We have been using partitioning to help add 3 digit numbers together.

We have also been making tiling patterns with 2D shapes.

Bikeability

Another successful week of bikeability, even in the rain!

IDL

We have been looking at how the Vikings lived back in the 800s, comparing things they had then to what we have now. We also thought about what a day in the life of a Viking might have looked like.
