P3 and P3/2 are working hard

This week in P3 and P3/2 we have been working very hard on lots of different things.  Read all about our learning below:

In Literacy, we have been continuing to learn cursive script.  We even tried to join letters together this week. We have also been continuing to learn our spelling patterns.  In PM writing we have been learning about information reports.  We know that they need a title, general statement, description and evaluation.  We tried to write about fireworks after we completed some research on the laptops.

In Numeracy, we have been learning about doubles.  We know they are a quick way to add two numbers together. WE have also looked at near doubles as we know that 6+7 is the same as double 6+1.

In HWB, we have been looking at ways to make the planet happy again.  We know we should try to look after plants and animals and save water and energy. We created posters about all the different ways we can help the planet.

In RERC, we look at St Francis of Assisi and how he cared to the animals and nature.  We know that we should care for them too.  We also looked at the story of creation this.  We know God created a beautiful world for us and we should look after it.

In Art, we created firework pictures using black card and oil pastels.

We watched the Lorax theatre show on Monday. It was very good and was all about the environment and trees.  We know that COP 26 is happening in Glasgow and we climate change is important for our future.

Oh Deer !

At this time of year there is a lot of chat about reindeers. Primary 5 used oil pastels to create beautiful portraits of some native fawns in Scottish woodland.

We paid close attention to the detail of the facial features and markings. We are delighted with the results. Don’t you think they look gorgeous ?
