Birdwatching at the Sands of Sound
As part of our Shetland topic, we have been learning about birds that we might find in Shetland and their proper names and Shetland names.
We went to the beach and listened carefully for the tirricks. There were two that were swooping about, people were on the island and disturbing their peace. Some of us saw a duck on water as well.
The class are desperate to see and hear a puffin but there was none to be seen. We have looked on the puffin cam at Sumburgh head and saw ones there.
Meta-skills used today were: focusing and curiosity.
Leadership – Playground
Primary 3’s Leadership focus this term is playground. We have decided to learn some games to help encourage p1-3 to play games in the playground. We have Jennifer from Active Schools in to teach us some games. We are then going to teach it to the primary 1 and 2 pupils. We have learned Dragon Treasure and Aeroplane Catchie today.
Meta-skills we are covering are: focusing, adapting, initiative, communicating, collaborating, leading, sense-making and critical thinking.
Times Table Rockstars
We are working on our times tables at the moment. The class are loving the games on Times Table Rockstars. They all have logins in their diaries so can play this at home too. Here is the login link.
