When we came back from the science centre we split into two groups to think about all the times we had seen maths on our trip. We couldn’t believe how much maths we used!
Maths all around us
Our trip to the science centre
On our school trip we went to the science centre in Glasgow. We are sorry it’s taken a week to blog but we had so many photos to look through!
Here are some of our comments from when we got back.
Lewis and Marcus – we really enjoyed seeing the show about the stars and the sky.
Ethan – we saw some pictures that the stars make in the sky.
Erin – the North Star is not the brightest star.
Daryll – I liked the pirate ship best.
Aaron – my favourite thing was the big bubble machine.
Oliver – I liked the tornado.
Katie and Adam – we had lots of fun.
Evie – running on the big wheel was my favourite.
Riley – we saw Pegasus in the stars.
Have a look at just some of our pictures!
Supporting Pudsey!
Today is children in need and we wore our own clothes and donated a pound to children in need.
Children in need helps children who are ill or not as lucky as us.
Look at Amy, Aaron, Ava and Ethan in their Pudsey accessories!
Look at us dancing to Jump up and Dance with Pudsey!
Adding
I’ve learned about adding today. Oliver.
We did sums. Pudsey helped us! Elli.
Equals looks like two lines one above the other. Aaron.
One line down and one across the middle is an adding sign. Ethan.
Day and night
We started a new topic called day and night. We bought about how we know it is daytime and how we know it is night time.
The moon and stars come out and night and the sun goes down.
I go out and play with friends in the day time.
The sun is out in the day time.
Owls come out at night.
We learned about animals that come out at night. They are called nocturnal animals then we made owls.
We made beautiful day and night sky’s and wrote about them.
Maths outside
We took our maths outside today. We were learning our numbers and did work on ordering numbers, looking for missing numbers, counting on and back and we have also been working hard on the number before…test me at home!!
Halloween art
We used our learning in maths to help us make witches. We have been learning about shape and used a circle, a triangle and a rectangle to make to witch. Then we drew round our hands to make the hair. Look at us at work…
P4/5 came to our class
We were very lucky today because p4/5 came to share their learning with us. We asked them to visit because they had learned all about the 80’s. In our class we were learning about when our parents were our age and lots of them were our age in the 80’s.
First they came to our class to tell sully about what they had learned. They told us lots about fashion and we know if was very different from now.
After that they took us to their class to show us some of their displays.
My favourite thing was seeing the fashion pictures. Erin
My favourite thing was seeing the disco dancers display. Evie
We learned that they had to wear white socks to be fashionable. Oliver.
My favourite part was going to their class. Marcus.
This week in P1
My favourite part of this week was making a healthy sandwich in art. – Lewis.
We did and experiment in science to show us that germs are scared of soap and we should use soap to wash our hands. – Oliver.
We learned about an artist called Mondrian who used straight black lines to make squares and rectangles. He only used red, blue and yellow colours. We learned these are the primary colours. We copied his style and did our own pictures. Daryll and Jaymi.
We have also been practising all our letter and are getting really good at them. We learned to blend letters to make words. Arron and Erin.
Have a look at some if the pictures of this week in class.
Busy bees
What a busy week we have had in Primary 1. You can read pur review of the week in this photo…
We really loved learning a new song all about things we can do. We had to point to parts of our body, lift parts of our body and shake parts of our body! Look at as singing and doing the actions…
