P3 are Telling the Time!
This week in Numeracy and Maths we have been focusing on Time. We have been looking at O’Clock, Half Past, Quarter Past and Quarter To. We made our own clocks and have been using these to help us. We enjoyed creating our own designs on the clocks. We have been working hard to learn our times and Mrs Hillan will be asking us our times often throughout the day. Some of us have been matching written times to the clocks and some of us have been recording times in digital and analogue. As a class we have been using some interactive games to test our knowledge and also help us learn something new. We will continue to consolidate the times we have learned so far, as well as trying new ones next week.
“When the big hand is pointing to the 9 it means quarter to”– Ryley
“When the big hand is at 9 on analogue, on digital you would write 45 for quarter to” – Summer
“When the big hand points to the 3 and the small hand points to the 8, it is quarter past 8″– Olivia
“When the big hand goes from one number to another number that means it’s been 5 minutes” – Erin
“When the big hand gets to the 6 that means half past” – Lewis D
“When the big hand points to the 12, it is o’clock” – Shay
P3 Filming with P3/4
This week we filmed our TV adverts to encourage people to visit Glasgow. We were working with P3/4 in mixed groups. We had to create a script as well as a piece of drama. We had lots of fun and had a few laughs along the way! We gave feedback to each group as we watched and filmed. A lot of similar feedback came up for our next steps, such as projecting our voices more and not having our backs to the audience. There was also a lot of positive feedback such as good acting in our dramas, sharing good information and some of us spoke loudly and clearly. Unfortunately we can’t upload the videos as the files are too large!
