We have all been extremely busy this week in P3 learning lots of different things and celebrating a variety of achievements. This week Devon made an extremely detailed lego model of an oil rig, and presented his model to the class explaining how it works as well as its many features.
In maths this week we have been continuing to look at 2D shapes as well as identifying and creating symmetrical pictures. In literacy we began our non-fiction reading for this term by exploring the features of a variety of non-fiction books such as contents and index pages – we enjoyed creating presentations on the information we found out and presenting them to the rest of the class!
On Thursday we also looked at how to make a good informative poster through the theme of bonfire night and firework safety.
In addition, we have also been continuing with our outdoor focus ‘trees and our woodlands’. On Wednesday we collected lots of different leaves and used these to help us create our woodland animals in art. On Thursday we went to the Peel with the rangers, where the children took part in a scavenger hunt to identify different leaves and the trees which they came from. We also had lots of fun working in our pairs to guide one another through the woodland whilst one of us was blindfolded – this was quite scary but really fun too 🙂
P3 would like to wish everyone a lovely weekend and look forward to another fun-filled week next week 🙂
