P3/2 have had another busy week. Keep reading to find out more:

In Numeracy,  we have been learning to calculate change. We have been using our subtraction strategies for this. We enjoyed playing lots of games to practise giving change. Our favourite game was on the laptop – it is called Toy Shop Money Game.

In Literacy, we  have  been learning about pronouns and wrote some sentences to practise using them correctly. In Writing, we have been learning about characterisation and we made a character profile for a Disney character thinking about their internal and external traits.  We have been continuing with our cursive handwriting this week.

In HWB,  we discussed all the different ways that we can keep healthy.  We know we eat healthy, drink water, sleep, brush our teeth and wash our hands. We also learned about the Yellow Cog (emotional triggers)  and identified strategies to help us.

In Science,  we have continued to learn about the skeleton and in art we made skeleton pictures using paint and cotton buds. We also tried to identify the bones as we painted.

In RERC we have been learning how to pray the Rosary this week. We have also discussed each Joyful Mystery of the Rosary.

In Social Studies,  we have been learning about desert animals and how they have adapted to live in their environment. We created a slide on our laptops about a desert animal and shared them with our class.

What a busy week.
