Fraction Fun in P3

P3 have been learning how to identify, read, write and draw different fractions. We have been making pizza, using washing lines and playing fraction bowling to help us.

Today we took to the great outdoors to practise drawing and writing 1/2’s, 1/3’s and 1/5’s.

Tomorrow we will start to solve fractions of amounts. Keep reading our blog to find out more!

Parent Zone Scotland

It is well proven that children do better when parents and educators work together.

Education Scotland have created a hub with lots of information for parents and carers.  Why not have a look!

Scottish Farms

After hearing one of our reading books this week, primary 1/2 asked if they could create their own farms. They worked cooperatively and developed their talking, listening and negotiating skills. Some groups also decided to incorporate some of our topic work and make these Scottish farms containing thistles, lochs and highland cattle. feb 191 feb 104 feb 109  feb 188
