This week we got a visit from the SSPCA . Where we built robotic cats which links to our topic artificial intelligence. In maths we are looking at negative numbers and multiples and factors. In reading we have started doing literacy circles where we choose a book and sit in a circle and ask questions and discuss what we have read. As part of our topic we were set a task to choose a invention from the industrial revolution to research. we used different skills such as, picking out key information, presentation skills, listening skills and the art skills of colour, shape and line. 😉
This week in P3/4 we have started our maths work on 2d and 3d shape – discussing faces, vertices and angles. We played guess the shape? Where we had to listen to clues and work out which shape was being described.
Martin & Grant – We were investigating the properties of 2D/3D shapes, e.g. Which 2D shapes do you need to make a net for a 3D shape?
We have also started our RME topic on Buddhism and IDL topic on rainforests where we have been sharing our knowledge and stating what skills and knowledge we would like to learn through both of these.
Charlie – We listened to the story of Buddha and discovered where Buddhism started.
Isla- In our Rainforest topic we know that they are cutting down the trees, so we will learn more and research about this issue.
On Thursday we had the first lesson of 12 from NYCOS. This week we were singing songs and finding and keeping the beat/pulse.
Quinn – We were singing songs and Keeping the beat and pulse.
