As part of our Local Area Study P3d went outdoors to conduct a traffic survey. We registered the different types and the frequency of the traffic. Back in class we used the laptops to put the information into spreadsheets and then created bar charts.
Today primary 3a explored how the tilt of the Earth, on its axis as it
circles the sun, causes the pattern of seasons. We explored this through the use of different types of technology.
We used the school laptops to watch clips on the rotation of the Sun, Moon and Earth and developed our own questions for our peers.
We used Virtual Reality Headsets to visit the moon and other places in space.
We also worked on our prior learning and we were able to sort the phases of the Moon into the correct order!
What a lovely May Assembly from P3a today.
Primary 3 enjoyed World Book Day and took part in a range of activities in each class. Have a look below!
Today P3a enjoyed some cosy private reading time on the carpet with our new library books and our pillows.
Today primary 3a made the most of the sun shine and took our final Celts social studies lesson outside.
We had great fun creating our freeze frames within our groups. We performed them to the rest of the class and demonstrated our understanding of how people in the past lived differently.
First, we practiced and brainstormed…
Then, we got into our performance circle to performed our freeze frames.

During outdoor learning P3a were practicing fractions using concrete materials.
P3c have been learning about right angles.
P3c have been learning how to measure using the outdoor classroom. 
P3b have been very busy this week and last week.
Last week outdoors, we made shapes with sticks and put cubes into them, to identify angles in shapes.
This week, we made numbers with sticks, and put cubes into the numbers to show where the angles were and how many they could find.
This term, for science, P3b are working in the STEM room, exploring forces. We have been working with magnets and investigating whether or not materials are magnetic. They have been doing a lot of research and investigation.
