CLOCKWORK CLASS

Primary 3.1 have been learning  to tell the time on analogue and digital clocks. They are able to tell o’clock, half past, quarter past and quarter to times.

We worked together to make human clocks and we used them to tell the time.

img_0861We sat at each number on the clock. img_0860The person that was number 12 was at the top of the clock.
img_0859When the minute hand points to the 12 it’s o’clock. img_0858When the minute hand points to 3 its quarter past.
img_0856When the minute hand points to 6 its half past. img_0855We held up our fingers to show what number we were.

TALENTED TILERS

Primary 3.1 have been exploring the properties of a range of 2D shapes and identifying 2D shapes which will tile.
They completed tiling patterns with a range and combination of 2D shapes and designed and created tiling patterns with 2D shapes.

Cara – I used hexagons.

Arlo – I made a pyramid out of triangles. 

Siona – The shapes all have to have straight sides.

Jamie – My pattern is made out of triangles. I had to turn the triangle round to fill each gap.

img_0946

Oli – I used lots of different shapes with straight sides to make my pattern.

Joseph – You can’t tile with circles because the sides have to fit together.

Jo – You can fill in the gaps in octagons by using squares turned round.
