P7 Maths Week Disney Challenge

@AttainRen #MWSNREN

Primary 7 pupils were celebrating Mickey Mouse’s 90th Birthday as part of Maths Week. They planned a trip for both P7 teachers  to go to Disneyland.  The children were a given budget and had to calculate the overall cost.  As part of this the children also had to justify their choices and explain what was a need versus a want.

P7 Talking about maths

Primary 7 were asked to show their understanding of rounding by having a go at being the teacher! Each group were given a statement and they were asked to explain the answer to the rest of the class.  They had to think carefully about their explanations to ensure the rest of the class understood.  It was great to hear all of the different strategies and explanations and we had a brilliant discussion around the different questions. 

Outside Learning

It has been lovely to welcome the children back into Primary 2 and start to get to know them. The children are starting to learn new routines and are settling in well.

We are looking forward to meeting parents and carers at ‘Meet the Teacher’ tomorrow evening (Wednesday 29th August at 5pm). If parents are working and grandparents are usually at the door – feel free to come along we would love to meet you too!

Making the most of the dry weather today we ventured out into the wildlife garden complete with our clipboards to search for a variety of items found in nature. We spotted several signs of a coming seasonal change and we will post photos once annual data forms are returned.
