Today we made some delicious sandwiches in class as part of our bread topic. We made cheese sandwiches and tuna sandwiches. They were lovely.

First we had to spread the butter and cream cheese on our bread, we also added cucumber, which we tried to slice nice and thin. After we added our topping we cut our sandwiches into half and then quarters. We tried to keep some to take home, but they were very tasty.

Here are some pictures of us enjoying our sandwiches in class.

We have really enjoyed leanring about money. We know so much more than we did at the start of pur topic. We have added all of our new leanring to share with you.

Primary 3 have been very busy during Scottish month making some fantastic art work.

We made some collage pigeons. We had to draw the pigeons first and then stick on some different coloured crepe paper.

We also made our won kilts. We painted the tartan and then we cut out and attached some black and gold belts-they look amazing.

It was really fun making our little Scottish men. We had to cut all of the Scottish mans outfit out and stick it together, this was another chance for us to design our own tartan.

We learned how to draw a thistle. It was tricky but they turned out great.

Our classroom look fantastic now with all our lovely art work.

Yesterday was Robert Burns day. We celebrate Robert burns on the 25TH January as he was born on the 25th January 1721.

Robert Burns is famous for his poems. We listened to two of his poems toady. We really liked ‘To a mouse’ and we were able to hear the translation of ‘Address to a Haggis’. On Rabbie Burns day people around the world celebrate his life by wearing Scottish clothes, like kilts, and eating Scottish food like Haggis, Neeps and Tatties. People also eat shortbread, we got to try some toast and it was delicious.

This week we baked bread. We had to prepare the bread and Mrs McArthur put it in the oven to bake.

We had to discuss the rules that we made last week and follow them when we were making bread.

We are going to learn all about money in maths. We were all excited when Miss McGregor told us what our new maths topic was. Miss McGregor could not beleive how much we already knew. We made a mind map to show you what we know and we will make another one to show you what we learn after our money topic.

This week we have been learning about expressions and equations. An equation is when two sums are equal. If the sums are not equal you add the non equal sign.
We learned how to write the non equal sign.
It is an equal sign with a diagonal line through it (Hannah).
We know the greater than sign > and the less than sign 71 (Alfie)

10 < 20 (Joey and Jaeden)

We have been learning how to balance out two sums. If they have the equals sign they must be the same at each side.

53 + 7 = 59 + 1 (Jenna).

Primary 3 are all really happy to be back at school. We have all had a fantastic week and already we are learning lots of new things.

We are very lucky as we all have a new friend. Tamara joined primary 3 after our Christmas holidays and she has said that she really likes being part of P3.

Today we had primary 3s form P3/4 back in our class. Miss McGregor said that we work so well together she let us listen to Christmas music as we worked. We were making quadrilateral robots.
