Money Workshops

Yesterday in the school we had some volunteers from Barclays who were out working with the children in all the classes.  The volunteers were delivering money workshops and the children all enjoyed themselves learning about maths in a real life context.  It was a great way for the children to learn some financial education.  The volunteers passed on their thanks to the school for making them so welcome and they were very impressed with the behaviour and maturity of the children.  Well done boys and girls!

P5a Problem Solving

In Maths P5a are learning about shape – both 2D and 3D and their properties.  Our class teacher challenged us with some Problem Solving all about shape.  Our strategy for this was – We can work together, and therefore we worked as a team in co-operative groups to support each others learning.  Problem Solving was quite tricky but you can see from our photographs how eager we were to offer our answers.  Mrs. Fullerton thinks we are magic at maths and is very impressed with our team efforts.  Well done all!
