Today we chose some of the characters we have met in Roald Dahl’s ,” James and the Giant peach.” We then thought of words to describe them.
We used our words and drawings to help us to write character descriptions.
I wonder what will happen to the peaches?
P3a have been listening to different books by Roald Dahl. We read The Twits and The Enormous Crocodile. We have been thinking about the characters and how they are described in the stories. We used tissue & paper to create these colourful Roly Poly Birds. The Roly Poly birds featured in both the books we’ve read so far. We are now starting the BFG and we are looking forward to meeting some new characters.
We have been thinking about what we have enjoyed in our novel. Most of us liked meeting the insect characters in the peach tunnels.
We tried a little bit of Problem Solving today. Our strategy was draw a picture.
We wanted to find out how many people would be in different sized groups.
In our class we have 25 pupils so each time we worked our groups out we had to have 25.
We also used plasticine to represent people and this helped us to work the problem out. 
As part of our novel study about,” James and the Giant peach” by Roald Dahl we looked very closely at a peach and thought about words we could use to describe it. 
We have been thinking about the kindness our friends show us in their words and actions. 
We have been learning about what we are grateful for through our virtual whole school assembly.
We are all grateful for different things. Here are some of the things we are grateful for:
* What are you grateful for ?
Primary 3 classes have settled in well and are doing a great job of following the new procedures in school. We had a fun first week full of lots of ‘getting to know you’ activities. Here we are making our frames for our self portraits 🙂
