Primary 3 Learning Highlights 21st February

What a fantastic week in primary 3!

This week we have been revisiting subtraction from the week before the holiday. We have moved on and started learning about multiplication. We used different multiplication strategies like arrays, repeated addition, number lines and groups of, to figure out answers to multiplication questions.

We have all been working on our common words this week and will be nearing the end of our word lists in the next few weeks. For writing, we wrote a plan for an information report all about a famous celebrity from West Lothian and next week we will be writing it.

We learned all about celebrities from West Lothian for our topic this week, we learned who Elise Christie, David Tennant, Mary Queen of Scots and Lewis Capaldi are.

During RE this week, we had a look at the shamrock, and how St Patrick used this to explain to the Irish people the three parts of God, and that the three parts of God is called the Holy Trinity. The children made their own shamrocks showing this.

Well done to all of this weeks winners including the hot chocolate, secret student,  table points, house winners and reading champion!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
