Primary 3/4 Weekly Round-Up 🌟
What a busy and exciting week it has been in Primary 3/4! The children have been working hard, having fun, and building our class community together. Here’s a little snapshot of what we’ve been up to:
✏️ Literacy & Spelling
We’ve been tackling some tricky words this week, practising them in different ways to help us remember spellings. Homework booklets have also gone home, giving everyone a chance to keep practising at home.
🔢 Maths
In maths, we’ve been focusing on place value. The children played some fun games to consolidate their understanding, helping them to see how numbers are made up of tens and ones. We also continued our exploration of time with a time scavenger hunt – a great way to spot clocks in action around us and test our knowledge.
🌱 Our Topic – Plants
We introduced our new topic all about plants. This week we explored leaves in playful and hands-on ways: looking closely with magnifying glasses, comparing their shapes and textures, and even using them to make magical “potions.” The children loved investigating and discovering just how interesting leaves can be! We were also learning about roots and have experimented with some planting.
💖 Health & Wellbeing
We’ve been talking about kindness and respect as we start to build our class family. The children shared thoughtful ideas about how we can take care of one another and make our classroom a happy, welcoming place for everyone.
It’s been a fantastic week full of curiosity, teamwork, and creativity. We’re really looking forward to seeing where our learning takes us next! 🌟
