Fractions

We have been learning how to partition shapes into halves, quarters and some children have also split shapes into eighths.

We did this practically using strips of paper. We also used plasticine and physically cut it up with plastic knives.

We have learned about equivalent fractions and have learned that one half is the same as 2 quarters or 4 eighths.

We also have been halving numbers and linking this to doubles.

We are learning….

Primary 4FL are learning our tables. We are using doubles to help us eg 4x table is double our 2x table. Sumdog also has tables challenges for us to work on and we have our passwords so we can use this in school or at home.

Remembrance Day

In P4FL, P4/5C and P2C we showed our respect for Remembrance Day by observing a 2 minutes silence at 11am. We listened to the radio and heard Big Ben chiming 11 times in London. Our stairs were decorated with lots of poppies we had made.
