Welcome to Term 4

Primary 3b have settled back into class and have been working hard. We have enjoyed using metre sticks and rulers to measure the perimeter of shapes around and outside the classroom. We have also begun to think about expanding our range of numbers and using different strategies when calculating equations in numeracy. We have started our new session in the gym hall, beginning to measure our improving fitness levels and embarking on circuit training activities. We have been using clues from text to make predictions about what might happen in the story. We have also written some familiar stories from a different perspective. We have had a little introduction to our new topic of Castles. We are looking forward to finding more out about this as the weeks pass. In PATHS, we have been considering the importance of good manners. We will be looking over the next few weeks at dictionary skills and have been looking at alphabetical order in preparation for that. We have also enjoyed using pointillism techniques in our art session this week. We are looking forward to an exciting and productive final term.
