I hope you all had a lovely Easter break! Primary 3c can’t wait to share a little bit about what we have been learning recently!
Music
We have been taking part in music lessons with Mrs Duggie via Teams. We tune in every second Tuesday and enjoy learning about music, rhythm, beats and instruments. Starting next week she will be able to visit our classroom to teach us! We are so excited to see her and begin face to face lessons again.
Reading- Fantastic Mr Fox
This term we will be studying a class novel. This book is ‘Fantastic Mr Fox’ by Roalh Dahl. We will answer comprehension questions about our novel in class and have some tasks to do at home too. Please don’t read ahead, and if you have already read the story no spoilers please! 🙂
‘There are three farmers called Boggis, Bunce and Bean. I think one is fat, one is small and one is tall.’ Thomas
‘There is a fox called Mr Fox. He steals food from the farmers every night, and he could avoid them with the wind in his face because he could smell them. I think I might really enjoy this book.’ Sarah A
‘I love learning and reading about Fantastic Mr Fox because it makes me fantastic and I love reading.’ Hrishika
Standardised Tests
Pupils have now sat and completed their Standardised Tests. I am very proud of Primary 3c, they didn’t stress it and were actually very excited to show off how much we have been learning in class! The results of these will be printed in your child’s report card in June.
‘I enjoyed doing my tests because I can show off my skills. I think I did a good job.’ Nico
‘I felt a bit happy because it was my first big test. Some of the questions were a bit tricky but I got them in the end I think.’ Adam
‘I felt happy because it was my first big test and Mr Fogg came in to give us our tests. It was nice to have him in because he was really funny, he made us feel excited.’ Zac
‘I enjoyed doing it, I was a bit nervous and I tried my best.’ Veer
‘It was fun because it was a bit different from our normal work.’ Martin
Class Presentations
The children’s Egyptians presentations were incredible! I can see a lot of hard work and effort has gone into them and I am blown away! We had a super mixture of posters, models and power-points. We loved sharing them with each other!
‘I really liked it when I got to show off my Egyptian picture that I made at home.’ Kazeem
‘I felt nervous about sharing my presentation with the class because I wasn’t sure I was going to get it right. But in the end I did sooooo good!’ Niamh
‘I felt happy to tell the class about my presentation and the funniest bit was when I played the Horrible Histories clip!’ Rayyan
Writing
‘I like writing because it makes me happy. I liked the door story because it was imaginative and I liked drawing my door’ Lola
‘I like using my imagination to write. I like all the writing, writing is my favourite subject.’ Maria
‘I love doing the door story because it was fun and I loved drawing my door. Behind my door was a valley of a sunset. It was very beautiful and amazing. It was so much fun doing my door story.’ Luca
‘I liked the door writing because it was fun and I liked my picture that i drew. Behind my door was Doritos-land! I liked it because it was quite creative and I liked using my imagination.’ Harry
Art
‘I liked learning about the Egyptians. When we draw a picture of a pharaoh it was good drawing and good painting.’ Nathan
‘I liked doing the pharaoh art because Egyptians is my favourite history topic and because i put all my effort into it.’ Andrew
”We used some gold/brown paper, yellow paint and blue paint. We drew the pharaoh in pencil and used the whiteboard pens to go around it, so it is more eye catching.’ Isabelle
‘Egyptian art has been a good art for me, because it is a bit cool and the paints are really colourful. Everything on Egyptian I enjoyed like the Gods.’ Daniel
‘I’ve enjoyed doing the pharaoh art because its been fun and we got to paint and we don’t always use the paints.’ Sarah H
