P3 Week Beginning 25th May 2025

Hello P3 families!

I cannot believe that we are heading into June already!  Here are the learning highlights according to ‘Livingston’:

Sophia and Nathan both report that programming a beebot with directional instructions has been the best part of their week.  The children rotated around different mats and worked together to make the beebot turn ‘clockwise, anticlockwise, forwards and backwards’.  The children were then tasked with designing their own beebot mat and the most creative one will be used for a class based task next week.

Matteo and Daisy both liked our lesson on ‘conflict and mediation’.  We observed a chemical reaction take place between white vinegar and bicarbonate of soda as a visual for what happens when we enter the ‘Red Zone’.  We learned strategies we could use to approach situations calmly in order to resolve them.

Vikashini liked writing a recount.  She wrote about a visit to the beach and met the success criteria of using time sequence words and past tense words.

Tyler T loved making a comic strip that linked to our ‘conflict and mediation’ learning.  We will continue working on that this coming week.  Through this, we have revisited speech bubbles.

Viaan said the highlight of his week was parachute games during PE.  This week, each child was given the name of an angle: acute, obtuse, right and reflex.  They ran under the parachute when their angle was called out.

My highlight was when we went up to the local woodlands to look for and record, angles in nature.

Congratulations to our hot chocolate winner, Vihaan!
