Sharing Our Learning
P3/2 have been learning about the Antarctica and Arctic Animals.
We linked our learning to the Global Goals ‘Life on Land’ and ‘Life below Water’. We learned about its unique climate, the animals that live there and how their special adaptations help them survive in such conditions. We used a variety of different materials and textures to create polar bears. We then applied our knowledge of information report writing and created information reports all about polar bears.
P3/2 have enjoyed exploring shapes this week and have been learning to use different shapes to create tessellation patterns. We used our critical thinking skills to decided which shapes we could use to tile and what shapes would not be good as they would leave gaps. We then used our creativity to create different pictures.
P3/2 and P2/1 braved the cold and set off on an exciting bear hunt adventure! Using our story stepping stones, we carefully sequenced each part of the story, making sure the events were in the correct order. We searched high and low on a scavenger hunt, explored each part of the story using musical instruments to create music for our bear hunt chant. And after all out hard work… we finally found the bear!
P3/2 have been learning about 2D, 3D shapes and their properties. We went on a shape hunt around our classroom and discovered many different shapes. We spoke about the different shapes we see every day in our daily life and then participated in a range of activities to consolidate our knowledge of 2D and 3D shapes.
