Fractions, Clocks and Present Room

Primary 1C have been working very hard on their Nativity. We can’t wait to share it with you very soon! We also had a lovely time on Friday picking a present for a loved one at the present room. We were all delighted to share with each other what we had bought!

In Literacy we are building on our reading skills each week. Some of us read a non-fiction book about teeth and then drew and then wrote about a fact we had learned. We have been practising our CVC words through CVC bingo and we are consolidating our sounds.

   

   

In Numeracy and Maths we have been learning about fractions. We have discussed equal parts and what a half is. We had a go at halving a piece of playdough and made sure each part was the same size, some of us even managed to split it into quarters. We also made pizzas but had to half our pizza first and share it with someone. We have also been learning about time and have discussed the different types of clocks there are, the features of clocks and also how to tell the time using o’clock. Along with this, we are practising our days of the week and months of the year.

   

   

    

   

During Outdoor Learning on Friday we used our knowledge of clocks and built our own clocks using sticks, stones and leaves and grass. We worked with our partner to ensure we had the correct number of stones and we then made a time on our clocks using the hands.
