Month: November 2022
We had a brilliant afternoon in 3A today. We started our new Toys topic off with an afternoon of play.
Many people kindly brought in a toy from home. It was lovely to see people playing so collaboratively and enjoying sharing each others toys.
I had a brilliant time and enjoying being introduced to lots of new toys too!
A big well done to Ben, Ossian and Munro for working together to raise money for the recent floods in Pakistan.
The budding artists decided to make and sell their own drawings to raise money. They worked collaboratively and organised the sale independently and by the time I made it over everything had sold!
Well done for such good team work, looking forward to finding out the total you raised on Monday.
We like to keep things active and hands on in p3 when it comes to maths. Here is a wee snap shot of what a typical numeracy looks like for us.
We split the lesson into 3 stations. Station 1 is with the teacher learning new skills and showing our understanding.
Station 2 is usually a follow-up or consolidation task. Today we completed a Number of the Day task in our jotters. This is a good way for us to apply lots of our number knowledge.
Station 3 changes daily. Sometimes there are targets activities or games and other days itsba free play Station. Today we worked collaboratively in our maths groups on targeted tasks linked to the learning done on the carpet.
We hope you enjoyed this little insight into what a maths lesson looks like for us!
We are nearly at the end of our Food and Farming topic and today we were learning about Food Miles.
We worked in groups to investigate Food labels to discover where they were grown. We then used the food miles calculator to see how far the food had travelled to reach us here in Scotland.
It allowed us to see how the foods we eat can have an impact on out environment. Lots of great discussions and team work, well done p3!
