🌟 Primary 3/4 Weekly Round-Up – Week Five

✏️ Literacy & Spelling

Our sound focus this week has been ‘nk’. The Magic Dragon delivered Little Red Riding Hood, which inspired some fantastic writing. The children wrote a diary extract and a twisted tale, and even set up a crime scene for Tim (our missing glue stick), complete with a crime scene report! In grammar, we explored onomatopoeia and how sound words can bring our writing to life.

🔢 Maths

We have been working on partitioning numbers and seeing how this links to place value. We also continued developing our skills in telling the time by practising how to predict and time ourselves doing different activities.

🌱 Our Topic – Plants

This week we dissected real flowers to learn about the parts inside a flower and their purposes. We also discovered how seeds are dispersed through some fun drama activities.

🪷 RME

With Miss Mann, the class has been learning about Buddhism. The children explored Buddhist beliefs and practices, and even created their own amazing temples, showing great creativity and teamwork.

💖 Healths & Wellbeing

We read Eat Your Greens, Goldilocks and discussed the importance of healthy eating. The children then made their own fruit kebabs, which were both colourful and delicious!

🏴‍☠️ Learner Led Event

It was fantastic to see so many parents at our Learner Led Event. We hope you all had a swashbuckling time joining in with the children’s pirate-themed activities!
