The class split into groups of four or five and we were given task cards with different maths challenges using natural items.
Primary 6b brought in their own devices to use during Maths Week 2018. Everyone had to download an app and use the app to scan QR codes all over the playground. Each QR code gave a different problem to solve. P6b worked in groups of 4 to solve problems collaboratively.
All the Primary 5 children performed their song beautifully. We have added a special affect for internet safety but you can see their actions are spot on!
In circle time P4 have talked about bullying behaviour and the effect it has on people. They talked about the way different people would feel – the person who displayed the bullying behaviour, the person who was the target of the bullying behaviour, the teachers , other children , the parents etc. They hope to use this information and create some literacy work from it.
The circles and the triangles have been learning about more than and less than. The crocodiles helped them to remember the correct position of the signs. It only eats big numbers. They were all very successful in this learning.
The squares have investigated 3D objects and in doing so are now able to say how many faces,edges and corners these objects have.They also made these 3D objects from nets that they cut up. Well done to Adam,Cameron C., Daisy and Grace.
The children were given the month of March to create a picture for the school calendar. As March is associated with the wind they made individual kites using the design from their social justice pictures. We thought we would give you a preview and hope that this might encourage you to buy the calendar this year.
P4 used the leaves they had gathered to create a fall of leaves on their paper. They thought about placing them according to colour, shape, and texture.
Primary 4 took advantage of the dry weather to go into the playground to look for signs of Autumn. They were going to create a setting in their writing and needed to use all of their senses to write their plan. While they were there they worked together to gather leaves of different colour, shape, size and texture to use in their art work later on in the day.
We worked collaboratively to research a variety of Paralympic events. We made posters which included a title, facts and interesting graphics. When we had finished, we shared our learning with the rest of the class by presenting our posters to them.
