P3 Outdoor Numeracy
We enjoyed taking our learning out to the playground this morning to practise creating number lines, jumping back in jumps of tens and ones. Some of us also created our own sums using three numbers. It was lovely to be outside on a nice, sunny morning.

P3 Spelling Strategies
Primary 3 have been using a range of spelling strategies to help them learn their common words. A favourite has been writing the word on your partner’s back and asking them to guess the word. Another has been writing a mnemonic to help remember the order of the letters. Learning the shape of the word, including discussing the tall and short letters has helped picture the words in their heads.

“Who’s that trip trapping over my bridge?”
Primary 3 have thoroughly enjoyed exploring the traditional tale of The Three Billy Goats Gruff through drama. Look at these ferocious trolls and happy, confident goats as they retold the story through: still images, movement, voice production and creating a conscience alley. Children had to explore the conscience of the troll, will he eat the goats or won’t he? Such a hard decision!

Primary 3 Coding and Outdoor Learning
Primary 3 are learning about computers and coding. Today they made a non-technology code for their partner to follow. They had to get their partner from one cone to another by avoiding the obstacles in the way. They tested their code out by one partner being the computer and one being the coder. Afterwards we had lots of discussion about what worked in our codes and what changes we would

This week the French Champions were introduced to some French foods in preparation for having a French Cafe later in the year.
