Sharing Our Learning
P3/2 have made the most of the lovely sunshine this week as we took our numeracy learning outside. We took different measuring equipment out and explored different items in the playground to measure. We had to work out what the best measuring tool would be to measure and then use the correct unit of measurement. We then worked collaboratively in groups to solve problems during Building Thinking Classroom.
This morning we had a visit from the community police officers. We learned all about the role of a police officer, how they keep us safe and then we got to try on some of their uniform and kit.
In P3/2 we have been developing a thinking classroom. During maths we have been working on solving different problems using our critical thinking, collaborating and communication skills whilst using Math Talk Moves – Turn and Talk and Wait Time. Today P3/2 co-created our success criteria, which helps us understand how to be successful in a task. Miss Smith was super impressed we came up with all of these by ourselves. We then used our success criteria to successfully solve the problem.
This afternoon P3/2 used all of our amazing collaboration and creativity skills to build a house fit for the 3 little pigs. We worked in small randomised groups using different materials to build a strong house that would withstand the ‘wolf test’! We then spoke about the pros and cons of each material.
P3/2 have been learning French words and phrases for the weather. We played pairs today, trying really hard to read the French phrases and match them to the correct picture. Tres bien!
