Primary 3a have been working hard during the month of March. Find our what we have been up to below:

Zahra- We had real daffodils in our classroom and we drew them. We did sketching with pencils.

Rory- We were making our Life Beyond Land video. I talked about how the spaceman got into his suit and we made it for our mums and dads.

Michael- We learned about Palm Sunday. It is when Jesus went to Jerusalem and the crowd were shouting ‘Hosanna in the highest!’

Naomi- We made under the sea pictures with lots of sea creatures on it. There were sea turtles, whale and mantra ray.

Carson- We have been watching Blue Planet on BBC IPlayer and we saw the biggest animal in the world and how heavy his tongue was, as big as an elephant.

Charlotte- I have been learning about division. I am getting better every time I try it.

Sareen- For outdoor learning we collected a stick so we could make our wands. We used pipe cleaners, tape and string with buttons.

Georgia- We have been learning about jellyfish. Jellyfish have tentacles and they can sting you. We made jellyfish using paper plates and we painted them and added sequence.

Nadine- We showed some of our amazing maths to the other teachers who visited our classroom. We are doing fractions and we used skittles to make fractions.

Mia- We’ve made posters to save the sea. I had a whale and there was litter in the water.

Savyasachi- We have been learning about Ramadan and Muslims celebrate this and they call their God Allah. At the end of Ramadan they celebrate with a big feats called Eid al Fitr.

Cillian- I have been learning about halves. I have been cutting playdoh and playing half games on the Chromebooks.

Andrew- I got a new minions mosaic in maths it is looking at division. I have been learning division and it has been quite hard.

Matthew- We went to the learning lodge to use the Chromebooks in the STEAM suite and the P7s came and helped us log on.

Parisa- I have been doing handwriting, we have been learning to write with joins.

Grace- We have been doing writing we have written The Door and The Undersea Adventure. Also we have been doing our How to Train your Dragon novel, we have been answering questions and we are on chapter 9.

Louise- We wrote inside candles to say our prayer for lent and we decorated them.

Adam- We have been doing tiling in maths, drawing shapes and creating patterns. It can be quite hard but I am working hard.

P3a share a bit about what they have enjoyed and learned in February:

Sareen- We got to decorate Hiccup and Toothless using tissue paper. We also moved onto our next big questions ‘what different sea creatures are there?’

Grace- My group in maths are learning staircase division. We have been using the stations, maths, writing, creative station, topic station. We have been writing stories about our novel ‘How to train your dragon’ and wrote a story as if we were climbing into the dragons den.

Adam- We had our Eurovision song contest, we won and had a continental breakfast. We had croissants fruit and juice.

Nadine- We were learning about camouflage in science and my group are learning staircase division in maths. We also have new colouring pens.

Charlotte- Our group has been learning vertical multiplication. I feel like I am getting better at it.

Savyasachi- We went to the science centre on a white star bus. I saw different parts of bodies and at the end we watched a movie about under the sea and we wore 3D glasses. My favourite part was running in the hamster wheel.

Elisa- We have been learning about different sea creature: sea turtles, octopus, crab and jellyfish. Sea turtles don’t breath under water. We have also added new prises to the star of the week bag.

Parisa- Yesterday my group was chosen to do the Easter egg hunt. Inside the Easter eggs were our spelling words. Our sound is the ‘ou sound’.

Naomi- In the creative station we are to draw a space picture and I drew one with the planets and the sun and stars.

Matthew- We finished off our big questions about astronauts and the different planets in our solar system. I enjoyed creating a poem to remember the order of the planets.

Michael- I liked the science centre. There was a body parts sections, you had to take the organs out. There was also magnets and you had to put them in a weird shape. There was a soft play and there were sideways houses also a water bit to play in. My favourite part was the dance floor.

Francesca- We made portholes out of paper plates and paints. We stuck the two paper plates together and stickers and drawings inside.

Georgia- We designed some butterflies and then camouflaged them about the room.

Rory- In my maths we have been learning staircase division and using remainders. When we were at the science centre there were 3 floors, my favourite floor was the top floor the body floor.

Louise- We’ve made some space leaflets and used the chrome books to search facts to put in our leaflets. We then decorated them and drew some space pictures.

Mia- in my group we have been learning division and remainders. We have maths stations, we can do different activates at the maths stations. I enjoy the maths board games.

Carson- We made some crosses to put on our window and the sun has been shining through! At maths we’ve been doing staircase division with remainders. If you’ve done well Miss Hillhouse will give you challenge questions. I like the challenge questions.

Kye- We have been learning about sea creatures. The biggest octopus is 9 meters long, the same length as our classroom. Sea turtles can hold their breath for 5 hours and breathe the same air as humans.

Cillian- I enjoy doing the daily mile. We have been doing gymnastics, we have learned a barrel roll.

Elias- I have done an Iron Man maths mosaic, also I’ve been learning about money and coins and I’ve been doing nice questions on the board with Miss Hillhouse. I had some fun doing the questions with Miss Hillhouse.

Andrew- I have enjoyed doing multiplication in my maths.
