Update 15.1.19

Happy New Year everyone.  P3M would like to update you with our learning since we returned from the holidays.

Maxim has enjoyed playing the game, Around the World, to help us with remembering our times tables facts.  Baili has enjoyed working on his times tables and division and he doesn’t think they are scary anymore.  Ana knows that you can work out division facts if you know your times tables by switching it round.  Here is an example…2×6=12 so 12/2=6 (we don’t have a division sign on the laptop!)

Eden was building electric circuits and we have been exploring how energy is produced in wind turbines.  Ethan enjoyed making our own wind turbines out of paper and straw.  Jake enjoyed taking these outside so we could test which way the wind was blowing to make our turbines spin.

Lauren has been learning how to say our favourite colours in French and colours which we dislike.

Carmen has been enjoying Jigsaw time and working on her dreams and goals.  We had a warm up game which involved passing the keys round.  Our goal was to get them round our circle without making a sound.  Then our goal was made harder when we had to do the same thing in less than a minute.  We know that reaching our goals may be hard but we have to persevere.

In PE, we have started a gymnastic block and we have put ourselves into teams.  William knows we are working together to win points and we will be making a group gymnastic routine.

Jaksen has been enjoying working on his handwriting and thinks he is getting better.

Aiden has enjoyed maths where we have been looking at 3D shapes.  Ana knows that a 3D shape has length, breadth and height.  Gracie knows that 3D shapes have faces, Maxim knows that some shapes have vertices and Erika knows that they have edges.

Thank you,

P3

Good afternoon everyone and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

We have had a lovely start to the year. Our new sounds have been ‘ch’ and ‘ng’

Paie, Angus, Logan, Jack, Rory and Isla did some fantastic writing in their jotters using ‘ng’ words.

Oscar, Flynn, Ellis and Arran have done amazing counting back from 20… it sounds like we are sending a rocket ship into space!

Rhianna, Ava and Rosie have enjoyed their reading time with Miss Purdie.

Aryana, Sophia, Thomas and Lyle were amazing at showing different types of balances in PE.

We are all enjoying our new topic about transport. Our class are particularly interested in transport that can fly!

 

Thanks for reading!
