This week we learned how to add tens and units numbers. We enjoyed using the Base 10 materials and Compare Bears to help us calculate the totals.

Using QR Codes, we self-assessed our work and could easily identify the learning we had achieved.

It has been a busy week for the Primary 3 ‘Merry Makers’. We have been researching, planning and creating our products to sell at the Christmas Fayre. We learned about the different skills needed to run a business, and the different roles within a company. In our business teams we worked cooperatively to make important business decisions. Our Market Research team helped us to decide on the best products to sell, while our Sales time researched competitor prices. The Product Design and Product Manufacturing teams worked especially hard to create package labels for our product. We then pitched our product to Ms Coull and blew her socks off as we secured a stall at the Christmas Fayre!

We can’t wait to start selling our super products, and we hope you visit our stall on the 28^th of November.

Our enterprising children in primary 1/2 have set up a company to sell Christmas decorations at our school’s Christmas Fayre. Our children had previously decided upon our name- Super Santas and one of our clever primary 2 girls designed our winning logo. This week we worked cooperatively to choose the perfect colours to make our logo really stand out.

A primary 2 child with an important decision to make.

We have a winner!

Primary 3 have been learning about senses through our topic, ‘The Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark’. We carried out science investigations to learn more about hearing, touch and taste.

Primary 3 have been learning about doubles and near doubles this week. We learned a super doubles rap to help us remember doubles facts, please ask us to perform this to you.

We really enjoyed using mirrors to investigate larger doubles, we can calculate double sums involving hundreds, tens and units!
