We used our picture plan to help us write the story of the Three Billy Goats Gruff.

We have been making stick puppets and using them to retell our favourite stories.

We have been enjoying sharing books together. Last week P6 came to visit P1 and we all had great fun reading and talking about different books.

We have been using coins to buy things in our class shop. We have been thinking about how to use coins to make different amounts.

We enjoyed using the snow from the playground in our play. 

We were really pleased with our paintings of the Little Red Hen. We worked together nicely sharing paint and clearing up afterwards.

We had great fun working together to make bread just like the Little Red Hen. It was delicious!

We enjoyed reading the story of the little red hen. We drew  pictures and then used them to help us write our own stories about the little hen but in our stories the other animals wanted to help bake the bread!

We made some delicious DNA today. DNA is organised in a structured called a Double Helix. This is where bases called A, T, C and G pair up to make a code that tells our body how to look. A always pairs up with T and C always pairs up with G.

We inherit DNA from our parents so some of our characteristics are the same as them. If you have a sibling then one could look like your dad and one could look like your mum.

P3B have been solving problems in Maths. Mrs. Thomson asked us; Are we curious mathematicians? Do we want to get better at asking mathematical questions? We said YES!

Our problem was from the EnRich Maths website: Eggs in a Basket.

There are 3 baskets, a brown one, a red one and a pink one.

There is a total of 10 eggs.

We had clues:

The brown basket holds 1 more egg than the red basket.

The red basket has 3 fewer eggs than the pink basket.

The challenge was to find out how many eggs were in each basket.

What’s your answer?

We found out that some people got confused with fewer eggs in the red basket. When there are 3 fewer in the red basket you need to add 3 to the pink basket.

It was fun! Sam E

It was epic! Lloyd

It was problem solving fun. Charlie H

Drawing pictures helped me. Eliana

Cubes helped me and my partner. Niamh.

We found when we do it in order e.g 1 then 2 then 3 in the brown basket it helped us to get the answer.
