Primary 3 have been creating their own version of The Animals went in Two by Two.
We discussed the rhyming pattern and the children had to follow this pattern for their
version. We have also been learning about the Scots language, finding the definitions of
the common Scots words. We are about to start our novel study of How to Train your
Dragon which the children are very excited about. This will involve reading together,
finding definitions of unfamiliar words and taking part in whole class comprehension
discussions.
For Numeracy we are continuing to learn about money. We have been identifying
coins and notes, adding amounts and we are about to start calculating change. We will
then be moving onto Time and data handling.
Our IDL topic this term is water and from discussions with the children they would like
to learn about the water cycle and looking after our water to protect our aquatic life.
We are beginning to take our learning outdoors, exploring our local community
and developing our problem solving skills.
