This week Primary 4s literacy focus has been reading comprehension based on animals, one on sharks and dolphins and the other focussing on pandas. For writing, we have done some work identifying mistakes in written sentences and have been revising spelling patterns we already learned this year.
Our numeracy work this week for the rulers and calculators has been based on short division and learning how to do the written method. The children have excelled in this and are loving it. The protractors group have been using concrete materials to split up and show division, as well as dividing by 2. The children got to take charge of their own learning on Thursday and had an array of activities to complete, they decided in which order they would be completing them. Most of the class did excellent at this and got all 3 tasks completed.
On Wednesday we were lucky enough to have an input from Destination Judo experts who were very impressed by primary 4s skills. The children loved it! We managed to play a game of handball this week which was a great success and the children are starting to understand the rules and how to play more clearly.
Well done to our secret student winner Vinayakarthik!
Well done to our hot chocolate winner Anthony!
I hope you all have a lovely weekend!
