P4B’s Amazing Learning Adventure!

In Primary 4B we have been learning about growth mindset. We have been challenging ourselves not to give up when we find things difficult and to ask for help.

In numeracy we have been learning the 3 and 4 times tables. We have been learning how to measure in centimetres. In Big Maths we have been challenging ourselves to beat our scores. We have been learning about maps and using a compass and we made maps of our local area. We learned how to do surveys and made a survey of Springfield’s favourite weather. We displayed the information on bar graphs.

In literacy we have been learning how to open a story, create settings and use punctuation. We have learned how to use paragraphs, use speech marks and question marks. We have used the BFG as a stimulus and have been writing stories and reading a play based on the BFG.

In French we have been learning to count to 30. We learned to say the days, months, colours and the French alphabet. We can now say French foods and we practised with fun activities with P4A including shopping and money. We also made French postcards.

In learning across the curriculum we have been learning about the BFG and Roahl Dahl stories. We have also been learning about the animals, landmarks and food in Australia and compared the weather to Scotland. We have been learning characterisation, acting and presentation skills through drama and art. In music we have been learning to play the Ukelele.

In health and wellbeing we have been learning to be good friends. We have been walking a mile most days. In PE we have been learning movement skills through gymnastics, football, basketball and we have played games to learn to work well together as a team. We have also been learning how to meditate so we are healthy body and mind!
