Welcome back to everyone in Primary 3 after a well-deserved week off. The pupils have come back with a lot of enthusiasm and they have certainly hit the ground running. With Summer Winter having gone home now, we had a little more of our weather topic to finish off, involving some water balloons and a kettle. We looked at how and why water changes from one state to another and there were some great answers and speculation as to what we were going to use the kettle for, rest assured no balloons were put in the kettle to ‘see what would happen’!
We made a start to our new topic for this term which will be focussed on Inclusion, what it means, how we can include people in school and how the community helps those that need it; beginning with a particular focus on the 5 senses. We have already had some good discussions about what inclusion might mean and some very inquisitive questions that we will hopefully find the answers to over the course of the term.
We have also started our new maths topic which will be money and the pupils were excited to work with the coins to help them solve problems. They were slightly less excited when they found out it wasn’t real money.
