Primary 3b have already been very busy, this term. Have a look at some of the things we have been learning.
This week, outdoors, we were consolidating our knowledge of times tables and addition strategies. We collected sticks, bark, leaves and stones.
We created pictures using the materials we had gathered. We allocated each object a value and then we calculated the total value of our pictures. We had a lot of fun doing this challenge.
“My favourite part of this was collecting all the stuff. It was like we were going on an adventure.” (Aleena)
“I liked making the pictures and calculating what value they were worth.” (Cian)
“I liked collecting all the stuff. I also liked working in my group with Gabriel E, Samuel and Cian.” (James)
This term, we have started doing gymnastics in PE. This week, we were stretching, balancing and working on controlling our bodies. We had some very talented leaders and demonstrators.
“I liked demonstrating jumping over the bench. My favourite part of it was choosing three shapes to make with my body.” (Mia)
“I liked doing the bridges in gymnastics. I loved being a team leader.” (Sarah)
In Talking & Listening, we learned about children’s and teachers rights. We had a group discussion about what we thought were rights and what were responsibilities.
Today, we had a real treat trying out the new Virtual Reality headsets. We had a go at using them to get used to them. We are looking forward to using them as part of our learning this term.
