Sharing Our Learning
This week in P6/5/4 we have been practising our place value using different games. We used our dienes and number counters to build numbers.
We also practised writing our numbers in words using a set of playing cards.
Lots of collaboration and communication within our groups while playing our games, and some great recall of our place value.
We have had a great first week back to school in P6/5/4! We have played some games to get to know our new classmates. We have discussed our rights within our class and have come up with some rules we will follow linked to our rights.
In P6/5/4 we also created some art were we drew a self portrait. Within our portrait we include things that we are good at, things we enjoy doing, something we are looking forward to learning this year and a goal for this coming year. It was great to see so many different interests and hobbies within our class!
This term, P4 and P3/2 have been working on our STEM skills. This week, they were learning about electricity and created circuits. They discussed how to keep themselves safe when using electricity and what is needs to complete a circuit.
We have been working on our coding skills this term using Marty the Robot using block coding. The pupils were able to create a code to move Marty around the room and some created a loop code.
Some great technology skills used by all the pupils today! The pupils used their critical thinking skills to work out problems with their circuits or code and used their communication skills to work in their groups.
This week P4 and P3/2 took advantage of the sunshine and took our PE outside! The pupils created obstacle courses for each other to run through practising the skills we have been working on, running, hurdles, throwing and balance. The pupils used their communication and collaboration skills to work in groups to create obstacle courses.
Primary 4 have been learning about measure this term in maths. This week we began practising measuring volume and reading scales. We estimated how much 100ml and 500ml were and then checked our estimations.
