\ud83c\udf1f Primary 3\/4 Weekly Round-Up \u2013 Term 4, Week Ten<\/h2>\n

\u270f\ufe0f Literacy<\/h3>\n

This week, our spelling focus was the \u2018aw\u2019 sound<\/strong>. In grammar, we learned about commas in a list<\/strong>. To make our learning memorable, we designed some very unusual pizzas! The children created lists of ingredients for both their favourite pizzas and some truly disgusting combinations, practising how to separate items correctly using commas and and<\/em>.<\/p>\n

This week also marked the final chapter of our Magical Door journey<\/strong>. We entered Promise World<\/strong>, linking our learning to Global Goal 17: Partnerships for the Goals<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The children wrote conversations between themselves and the Keeper of the Door<\/strong>, who explained why the Magical Door must now leave. In response, the children reflected on everything they had learned from the different worlds they had visited throughout the year and considered how these lessons might help them in the future.<\/p>\n

To conclude our journey, each child wrote a Planet Protector Promise<\/strong>, explaining what they have learned through our Global Goals work and what actions they will take to help protect our world.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udd22 Maths<\/h3>\n

This week, we continued developing our understanding of time<\/strong> and explored how numbers change when dividing by 10, 100 and 1,000<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

We also continued our work on area<\/strong>, helping the children build confidence in measuring and calculating the space inside shapes.<\/p>\n

One of the highlights of the week was our Maths Whodunit Challenge<\/strong>. The children became maths detectives, using their skills and reasoning to solve a series of mysteries, including The Missing Pencil<\/strong>,and The Missing Chocolates.<\/strong>\u00a0This was a fantastic way to apply maths in a fun and engaging context. \u00a0Would you believe that they discovered it was Mrs Teale who had stolen the chocolate!!<\/p>\n

We also completed some maths assessments, giving the children an opportunity to demonstrate the progress they have made this term.<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf0d Topic \u2013 Building a Business<\/h3>\n

Our caf\u00e9 enterprise project continued this week as we worked alongside Primary 1\/2<\/strong> to create decorations and displays for our caf\u00e9.<\/p>\n

We also explored the importance of risk assessments<\/strong>, discussing potential hazards and how businesses can identify and reduce risks to keep both staff and customers safe. This helped the children understand another important aspect of running a successful business.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udcbb ICT and Global Learning<\/h3>\n

As part of our World Cup learning, the children selected one of their countries from our classroom sweepstake and carried out their own research.<\/p>\n
