Last week, P2/3/4 started our new topic of fractions in Maths. We had a go at shading fractions, making fractions from PlayDoh and even finding a fraction of different animals. As you can see, we had a great time!
In p2/3/4/we have been learning about Energy and Forces. This week we carried out a test to investigate the effect of forces on the speed and motion of objects. We had to agree how to make it a fair test before we carried it out then predict what we thought would happen. Afterwards we discussed what the results showed us about forces. Everyone worked really well in their groups to carry out the test and record results. Good teamwork!
Primary 3/4 have just enjoyed a fantastic trip to Lerwick for Up Helly Aa morning. We managed to see the Jarl Squad and the Galley procession through the street. Everyone thought it was really busy and exciting! Then we walked to the museum where we learned lots more about the real Vikings.
P2-3-4 had a super visit to the farm this morning, We were lucky to have beautiful sunshine and learned lots about modern farming methods from Jamie. Everyone had a great time and the highlight was being able to sit in the tractors and quads.
Last Thursday p2/3/4 had their class treat. Lots of children chose to play games on the laptops while others preferred to play in the forest outside the classroom.
We enjoyed a session of outdoor learning led by Kate Hookman. We built dens in the forest area and did a scavenger hunt,
P2/3/4 enjoyed a super visit to the Croft House museum on Wed 31st May. We were given a detailed and informative tour inside learning lots about life in Shetland in the past. Even the dull damp morning didn’t spoil their enjoyment as they loved doing the scavenger hunt outside and then playing hide and seek catchie in the croft house grounds!
