Primary 3 Learning Highlights 12/9/24

We have had a great week in Primary 3 this week doing some fun learning activities.

Our literacy this week has been very active, we learned how to do pyramid spelling and have been practicing our words using pyramid and rainbow spelling, as well as practicing using playdoh and spelling hangman. We have been reading our word boost book ‘The Obvious Elephant’ and learning all about words like ‘bewildered’ and ‘curious’.

In our numeracy and maths, we continued to practice our skip counting in 2s, 5s and 10s, and had active opportunities to explore and think about skip counting in different numbers and try to work these out for ourselves, using our knowledge we already have. We also played a fun game out in the playground with Mrs Garvin.

As it is Fairtrade fortnight, we revisited what we already know about Fairtrade and shared what we already know about it. We will continue to explore this next week.

Our RE this week has been talking about Gods creations and we got the chance to go outside and explore, noting down everything we could see that was created by God.

We revisited out class charter and our school rules and values as the last session of our topic this week, and next week we will be beginning our new topic!

On Thursday, we had a reward afternoon as a thank you for being so awesome so far this year, the children got the chance to choose which activity they wanted to do from a wide selection, including painting, playdoh, games, games on the board, colouring and drawing and playing with the toys.

 

Rhains highlight if the week this week has been everything! He has had so much fun at school this week.

Aarons highlight of the week has been playing the skip counting game on the smartboard during our active numeracy session. He had lots of fun skip counting in 5s with his friends.

Olgas highlight of the week this week was during our reward afternoon on Thursday, she loved drawing with the oil pastels and lucky for me she made me 2 pictures!

Olivers highlight of the week this week was using the playdoh for spelling and during reward time today.

JJ enjoyed doing maths this week and in particular the maths game we played outside.

Khaleesi and Hameedah both agreed their favourite part of the week this week was learning how to do pyramid spelling.

Well done to our prize winners this week, Connor, Owen and AbdulHameed.

Thank you all for the lovely pictures and drawings I got today and throughout the week, I am a really lucky teacher!

I hope you all have a lovely long weekend!
