Living Things

In Primary 3 we have started a new topic – Living Things. We have been learning about the life processes of Living Things and their characteristics. We remember this by using MRS NERG…

Movement

Respiration

Sensitivity

 

Nutrition

Excretion

Reproduction

Growth

Today we went outside to look around our school area to look out for living things. We even collected some leaves, flowers and sticks that we will use in our art lesson tomorrow.

The Great Skittles Robbery…

Monday at lunch time something terrible happened in the Primary 3 classroom… Miss Smart  brought in a big tub of skittles and left them on the table and at lunch time they went MISSING!!! At the scene of the crime there were two packets of skittles all over the floor and the tub was nowhere to be seen.

So Miss Smart blocked of the area and collected the evidence left. There was a footprint and a hand print!! Now we knew there was only 7 people in the bay at the time of the crime. Miss Mooney, Mrs Taylor, Mr Gibb, Mrs Glasgow, Mrs Enright, Miss McClusky & Mrs Carroll. So all the suspects shoe prints and hand prints were collected and it was up to Primary 3 to see who measures up… Who’s hand prints & footprints matched the ones found at the scene…

We have been learning all about measure and how to measure accurately. So this helped our investigation.

After an thorough investigation, the culprit turned out to be…. MRS GLASGOW! Mrs Glasgow has now returned the skittles tub back to primary 3. CASE CLOSED.

 

Middle Bay visit from a Mandarin Teacher

The middle bay have been learning Mandarin from Zhula our new Mandarin teacher. We have been learning numbers and how to count to 10. We also learned all about Chinese New Year and Chinese Zodiac.

We have been having lots of fun learning Mandarin.

 

Take a look at what we have been learning.

Primary 3 The Ancient Egyptians

Primary 3 have went back in time to explore the Ancient Egyptians. We have been learning lots of interesting facts. We even created our very own Egyptian artefacts during a personal project. We then set our classroom up like a museum and invited all the other classes to come have a look. We think they look fantastic! Take a look at some of our creations!
