P3’s Discursive Writing

Primary 3 have been learning about discursive writing. We have been exploring different view points and reasons to support these. We practiced using discursive language out in the playground by reading statements and deciding whether we agreed or disagreed. We know that we need to give a reason for our answer and used some fantastic discursive language. We also enjoyed working in pairs to act out having a debate about a given topic.

Amazing Arrays in P3

This week in primary 3 we have been continuing to learn about multiplication. We have been exploring different strategies to help us solve multiplication sums. This week we have been learning about arrays and feel confident in using these as a strategy for any multiplication sum. We enjoyed creating arrays using play-doh and whiteboards. We even took our learning outside and used natural materials to create arrays.
