The last two weeks in Primary Four have been very busy indeed!
In maths the children have been very busy weighing in grams using kitchen scales marked in increments. They have also been solving lots of mild, spicy and hot number challenges and talking about all the different strategies they can use to solve a number problem. Multiplying and dividing using arrays and times tables have also been keeping our brains busy!
Our IDL topic is continuing. This week the children have been recording advertising jingles to go with the chocolate bars they have invented. They have been considering what their market is interested in, such as relaxation, fun or health. We are currently very busy making eye catching posters that could be displayed on bus stops and poster boards around the country!
Last week’s Dahlicious dress up day was lots of fun. Here are some pictures of our fabulous costumes and of us playing chocolate races.
You certainly have been busy P4. How have you used your weighing skills at home and school?
I was impressed with your rules to remember how to use arrays to multiply and divide – have you taught these to anyone at home?
