After a long relaxing Christmas holiday, our Primary Three mathematicians were excited to begin our new Numeracy topic of Money. We began our week by looking at different coin combinations to make the same amounts, and finished by using different strategies to add amounts of money together to make totals. We had a great time playing shopkeepers and customers, and used our problem solving skills to buy items using the fewest coins possible.
Next week we are looking forward to moving on to giving change.

As we have begun the New Year we also decided to set ourselves some New Years Resolutions. We had a class discussion about what a resolution is, and decided to choose ones for ourselves that we felt were achievable. We then made a lovely paper collage displaying our resolutions and enjoyed sharing them with each other.

This week also learned that our new class topic is The Human Body, and after a brief introduction, we can’t wait to get fully started next week!
