Classes - P4A
Welcome to our P4A
Teacher: Mrs E Adair
Art
we painted fantastic animal prints for our display for our current topic 'Going Wild!'
We recognised how some prints are camouflaged to help animals blend into their habitats to keep them safe from predators, whilst others actually want to be seen!
World Book Day
We had a great World Book Day and book week! P7 pupils also visited our class to read stories to us which was lovely.
Recent Numeracy Activities
Here’s some recent numeracy activities we have been doing in P3B, including measuring in the snow, learning about place value in 3-digit numbers, working with money and approximation!
Numeracy
We have been learning all about place value with numbers up to 100, shape and position and direction. Within 20 we have been using different methods to help us add and subtract, using various concrete manipulatives to help our understanding of the processes involved.
Outdoor learning
Recently we have been representing and comparing numbers outdoors by using natural resources to make number lines, partition numbers and form numbers. We've also been on sound hunts, using recently taught sounds to find corresponding objects outside!
Writing
We continue to make story maps of our class texts that act as a scaffold for our writing. We then alter these maps to change the texts to our own versions, leading us to become the author of our own stories. It has been going very well as we continue to focus on the correct use of capital letters and full stops as well as adjectives to make our writing more engaging!
Thanks to Coleraine FC for coming in to deliver football sessions to our class to kick start our 'World Cup Fever' theme! They taught us fun and engaging ways to use footballs along with skills for the game itself.
