Parents and Carers Try IZAK 9

Primary 5 would like to say a big thank you to everyone who was able to make the open event on Friday morning. We had a great time sharing our IZAK9 resource with you and showing you how we work together in our teams to solve the problems. We were very impressed at your problem solving skills and your German and French skills! We are glad you can now see how we have fun in maths!

AMAZING 3D ARTWORK AND QUIZED QUESTIONS

Numeracy

P5 have been learning about 3D shapes. We have found some unusual shapes. We made 3D shapes from nets which is how they look when they are folded out.

Literacy

In literacy we made up some questions about our novels for a partner. We swapped with our partner to answer their questions and then we had to mark their answers against our success criteria. Our success criteria was: to write our answers in full sentences, to use information from our book to answer the questions and to write the page number of where we found the information.

COOL COMPASS ART

Today in class we were making compass art. The compass we were using were for drawing circles with different size radius. This is how you use one:

step 1 get the compass.

step 2 sharpen your pencil.

step 3 untwist you compass untill you find a hole

step 4 get the sharp pencil and put the pencil in the hole.

step 5 twist it the other way.

step 6 put the compass on paper and you can draw a circle.

Primary 3 working hard!

The Rainforest

The children learned all about the layers of the rainforest. We can name and identify all the layers with confidence. We will be learning about the animals who live in each layer.

Badminton

The class had fun using the net for the first time today. A lot of the children found it challenging to hit the shuttlecock over the net but they know that with lots of practise they will get better!

 

Portraits 

The children learned how to draw a face and we chose a friend to draw. The class had lots of fun drawing their friend. Some of the drawings were so good that we could identify who they were.

Multiplication

The children enjoyed using pasta shapes to help them find out the answers to the 4 times table.
