As part of our Under the Sea learning context, we learned about food chains. We created simple food chains to show how energy is transferred between some animals in the seas.
Miles – There are two parts to a food chain. The producers and the consumers.
Ruth – I enjoyed learning about some sea animals diets.
Ana – It was fun cutting out the ocean animals and making the food chain.
Darcy – I enjoyed making the food chain. It was very fun.
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.
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.
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.
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.
P3.2 have worked extremely hard to write and illustrate their own fractured fairy tales.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading all the stories and I hope you can read them to family members who will enjoy hearing these impressive tales.
I am sure I will read some published books from children in our class in the future. 🙂
P3.2 would like to thank Jace and Nathan for helping upload the photographs and gettting quotes about our learning for the last couple of blog entries.
Thank you,
Primary 3.2
