This week in Primary 3 we have been looking at durations of time. Mrs Hillan has given us two times and we have had to work out how long is between them. We have been finding this tricky, but collaborating and communicating in small groups for this has helped to boost our confidence. We will continue to work on this. We have discussed how it is important it is to know the time so that we aren’t late for our work in the future or we don’t miss an appointment. We also discussed that we need to know how long is between two times so that we know how long something lasts, for example when we go to see a movie at the cinema.
We are now becoming more confident in showing our understanding of a text through completing our comprehension activities. We have been able to use these skills to then help us build up an understanding of our new class novel just by looking at the front cover and then by reading the blurb. We were all able to make predictions of what we think is going to happen in the story and we could then change our predictions once we had read the blurb. We have enjoyed working collaboratively to create a piece of drama retelling our predictions!
We all enjoyed celebrating World Book Day last week, and as promised, here are some pictures of us in our pjs with our teddies and books!
