Primary 3/4 News

This week was creativity week and we have really enjoyed exploring our creativity on our own and working in groups.

We think creativity means:

• “Being unique” said Jay
• “Using your own qualities” said Ailie
• “Using your own mind” said Evie
• “Using your imagination” said Aidan
• “Creating things that have never been created before.” Said Haseeb
• “Putting different things together to make one extraordinary thing.” Said Hannah
• “Helps our mind grow” said Caiden

On Wednesday we all had a creativity challenge to think of a game or a sport. Then we chose to work with a partner or in a group to join with. In those groups we invented a brand new game. “This was amazing!” said Lukasz. Below are some of the games that we came up with.

• Hannah and Shannon – Ping Pong

“I enjoyed Hannah’s idea of using the game corners in our new game. I also enjoyed it because we mixed different games together to make it more exciting.” said Shannon.

• Mark, Joseph, Jay and Adrin – Basket dodge

“I enjoyed the game because I like a dodge ball and basketball and mixing them together makes it out of this world.” Said Mark.

• Evie, Ailie and Brooke – Paper Ball

“Our game was like basketball, dodge ball and rock, paper, scissors. In the game you play basketball and try to hit someone, when you hit someone you have to do rock, paper, scissors and the loser gets to take a shot of scoring a basket. You win a point if your score a goal.” Said Brooke.

• Jan, Kacper, Joshua and Haseeb – Cyberball

“In this game there are 2 teams. One team starts by passing the ball to their partner if they don’t pass then the other team get the ball.” Said Haseeb

• Jay P, Aoife, Isabella and Rachel – Splat

“Our game was fantastic. It included rounders and dodgeball. The defenders had to stop the opponents from getting passed them. They had to try to grab the ball.”

Said Isabella and Jay-P

• Jacob, Charlie, Aidan, Gaby and Lukasz – Dodge the rugby ball

“In this game you have 2 people that hold the rugby ball. They throw the ball without it hitting the ground; if it hits the ground then they go in to prison.” Said Charlie.

Creativity is important because:

• “It helps your growth mindset grow bigger and stronger” said Jacob
• “It means you can experience new things” said Aoife.
• “You can explore new things” said Lukasz

Have a lovely weekend!
