Primary 6.21 worked together to evaluate the rights of the child while creating their class charter. The task involved a discussion about the rights that they felt had the largest impact on their lives and the rights that they deemed to be the most important to themselves.
Our warm up game today helped develop our word creating skills using vowels, consonants and golden question marks. We got into teams and collected stones with letters on them to work together making long words and short words. It was great when we picked golden question marks as they could be any letter we wanted! Team work was really important and all of us worked well on this task.
Next we used ‘Sammy snakes’ (who misbehaved a bit while Mrs Kelly held them! ) to help us work on our estimation skills. Finally we went exploring in the forest to find trees of all different heights and practised estimating just how tall they were.
