February Homework in P4
Each month P4 enthusiastically take on their home learning grids and enjoy sharing the results of the activities they undertake. A few examples of their tasks are featured below.
Pancake Day in P4
P4 have been celebrating some different events over the last month.
One favourite in particular was Shrove Tuesday. As well as learning about Shrove Tuesday through RME, we were also able to incorporate Pancake Day into our Health, Maths and Literacy activities. We enjoyed investigating our favourite toppings for our pancakes, our favourites being syrup and strawberries. We collected information on favourite toppings, displayed this information in a graph and used the graph to identify most/least popular toppings. We included Pancake day in our Literacy activities through writing shopping lists for making pancakes with our favourite toppings and instructions on how to make pancakes.
Outdoor Maths
Happy New Year!
P4 are back and ready to learn. Today we have made the most of our outdoors and have taken our maths out to the sandpit and been practising our subtraction knowledge. We built sandcastles and had fun taking them away to give our answers, using tyres to take away and we worked with bigger numbers and negative numbers by writing sums in the sand.
We loved this different approach to our maths and incorporating the outdoors.
P4 Home Learning
Primary 4 have been enjoying working on our homework grids over the last few months. Some children have been creative and made models, others have photographed the changing moon and others have been spreading kindness and Christmas cheer. Many of us have confidently shared our activities and are very proud of our learning.
Here are some examples of what we have done.
Fun with Fractions
Fraction Pizza
Primary 7/6 started a job with Pizza Hut today and had to create pizzas to match their customers orders. The customers had to fill out an order form with exactly what they wanted for each fraction of the pizza. We had some vegetarian pizzas, and even stuffed crust. Will we have satisfied customers?
