It has been such a quick week and we have been super busy in Primary 3!
For Minibeasts this week we studied their anatomies. Mrs Agnew shared information about her caterpillars and their process to become butterflies. Some of us drew and labelled the anatomy of a butterfly whilst some of us picked our own Minibeast and completed a little research to find out their body parts. Look at all of our wonderful work…
Amy has been Minibeast hunting this week and found a caterpillar all curled up…
And…Mrs Agnew’s caterpillars finally emerged from their chrysalides as butterflies. Here are a couple of pictures when they were released into Mrs Agnew’s garden.
This week we learned about the clothes that Vikings wore. Their clothes were made from wool, linen and animal skin. The Vikings made their own clothes and made the wool into yarn and then used natural dyes from plants to give their clothes colour. Men wore tunics and trousers and women wore a long dress with a pinafore over it. Their clothes were fastened with belts and brooches. Here are some of our Vikings…
This week in French we learning about fruits. Mrs Nasar posted flashcards with the names of different fruits in French and we then had a crossword to complete. We listened to The Very Hungry Caterpillar in French to help us. Murdo posted a picture of some French fruits he has drawn and labelled…
For Maths, we enjoyed trying to beat Mrs Grieve with Addition to 10, Addition to 20 and Mixed Multiplication. We had some pretty good scores but I don’t think any of us managed to beat Mrs Grieve…yet!!!
As always, we are very good at keeping ourselves busy at home. Here are just some of the things we have been doing…
Murdo has been learning to play chess. Chess is a very tricky game to master, well done Murdo 🙂
Alfie B has made some very yummy ice lollies…
Heena made some equally yummy looking butter biscuits with icing and sprinkles…
She also shared this very colourful picture about Ramadan.
We have continued with our comprehension work this week. As one of the passages was about snakes, Ava thought she would share this picture of her neighbour’s pet python called Sage. Sage is 5 years old and looks very comfortable with Ava.
