We are starting to round up our narrative writing and have started to plan for our assessment. We had so really good ideas and it is clear that we have been taking things on board.

“We learned lots of division this week and we were drawing circles on and dots to share them equally. We also looked at fact families.  ” – Logan

“Since we have been looking at castles, we recreated the Hogwarts castle as part of our art lesson this week.” – Callum

Primary 3/4 really look forward to our reading champions group on a Wednesday. It is clear we are able to use our knowledge of different comprehension strategies outwith the class.

It has been a super short and quick week for us…

We really enjoyed doing some valentines crafts.

All of us also worked really hard on division by grouping. Using the counters really helped us.

Miss Caughie was super impressed with our ideas this week as we are getting better at using what we have learned to improve our writing.

This week we used an animation tool on the Chromebooks to bring our drawings to life.  This was our first time experimenting with this and we can’t wait to do it again. Our characters were amazing. What do you think?

We have finally finished our castle in the open area. We made some furniture for it.  We also made crowns and shields.

In maths we started a new measure topic. We made some posters to show what we already know. We also did a class challenge which involved us getting in a line from tallest to smallest. Using cubes, we started to estimate the length of objects in our classroom. Paige even managed to guess that her pencil was 7 cubes long.

We did some super work on alliterations for Literacy. Our rotations were games on the chromebooks, worksheets in the clearboards and building alliteration walls. We were all really on task.

It was a real delight getting to watch the Scots Verse winners. We loved listening to the poems performed fabulously.

Our focus for HWB this week was working as a team and the benefits from this. After reading a book and discussing issues, we worked as a team to get the hula hoop from one end of the chain to the other without breaking it.

It has been a longggg January filled with lots of learning and we are so looking forward to a long weekend next week.
