Outdoor learning

P4.2 were using natural materials in the playground to create pictograms. We displayed the variety in colour of the leaves in the playground. Some of us also created pictograms to show the variety of materials found in the outside area.

Darcy – I enjoyed it because we got to show how many leaves and sticks were in the playground.

Caoimhe – I really enjoyed learning outside.

Joel – I enjoyed getting the leaves and drawing like graphs.

Jack – I liked working with Kai and Fin. I like when we all collected the leaves.

Sophie – I enjoyed drawing with the chalk.

Ruth – I liked finding sticks and stones and leaves and sorting them out.

 

2D shape tiling

One of our maths groups were learning about 2D shapes and shapes that can tile. We created our own tiling patterns.

Ellie – Tiling is when there a no overlaps and gaps.

Finlay – Tiling patterns can’t have gaps.

Olivia – Squares can tile.

Darcy – So can triangles

Joel – Rectangles and hexagons too.

 

Oceans of the world

As part of our learning context, Under the Sea, P4 were learning about the 5 oceans of the world.

Some pupils used Apple Clips on the Ipads to share our learning.

Annie – We were learning what different oceans there were and facts about them.

Miles – We learned how to get ocean facts and put them into a video and play them back.

Josie – it was really fun learning about the oceans and it was hard to find all the pictures but it was fun.

2D shapes

P4 were learning about the properties of 2D shapes. We used the Chatterpix app on the Ipads to share our learning.

Finlay – I learned 2D shapes are different from 3D shapes.

Darcy – I think it was good because you got to share what you were working on and it was fun.

Phoebe – I practised Ipad skills.
