P3 started their week by learning different landmarks around the world as part of their class topic! We looked at landmarks like The Eiffel Tower in Paris and the Taj Mahal in India. #Article28 – The right to Education

On Tuesday, P3 celebrated St Patrick’s day by dressing in green, learning about St Patrick and why we celebrate this day each year. They then created finger painted shamrocks and drew funky St Patrick’s chicks 🐥☘️#Article14 -The right to freedom of thought and religion.

P3 also made the most of the Spring sunshine and consolidated their knowledge of position and direction. They drew grids on the playground then documented the directions to get to certain points using the language “Left, Right, Up, down, forwards and backwards” ☀️🌤️

P3 have been learning about their emotions and the zones of regulation. We displayed new posters and resources to help us talk about what zone we are in. P3 then drew “inside out” characters to represent each zone and labelled them with what they can do when feeling each zone. #Article13 – The right to share thoughts freely.

P3 also started their new topic – “All around the world” and looked at different Countries languages and flags from around the world. #Article2 – The right to no discrimination.

Finally – P3 learners worried super hard preparing for their first sacrament of Reconciliations this week. A huge well done to all involved. #Article14 – The right of thought and religion.

P3 had a fabulous World book day! They started by participating in “The great big world book day footy and booky quiz” featuring questions from some famous footballers!

They then enjoyed the costume parade followed by creating bookmarks and sharing our favourite books with friends.

A very creative and active world book day! #Article31 #Article17

In term 1 primary 3 entered a ‘Monster Mayhem’ drawing competition as part of the young writers competitions. P3 used their imagination and creativity skills to draw a monster of their choice and name them using an alliteration, linking to their class learning.

These drawings were so great that they all got published into the Monster Mayhem book. 

A special well done to Ellis in P3 who’s picture was chosen as their favourite and now features on the front cover! Ellis was gifted a £10 national book token and is now a finalist with a chance of winning the overall prize – An awesome den making set!

Well done to all P3 learners on using their skills of creativity and focus to create their monsters.  #Article28

P3 performed an amazing class assembly on their topic “Habitats” this week. They all worked extremely hard to learn their scripts, display their artwork and learning. This resulted in a very enjoyable class assembly.

This week P3 have worked super hard on their multiplication and division. They have challenged themselves and consolidated their learning in a variety of ways! #Article28 – The right to Education.

P3 have also been working on their digital skills this week. They created digital informative posters using the IPads. They started by using the safari app to screenshot a photo of a shark, followed by using the photos app to crop and edit using the mark up tool. Pupils used their knowledge from writing shark fact files earlier in the week to add different facts to their posters. #Article17 – The right to access information.

They also had loads of fun at their Christmas party, played games and showed off their dance moves. 💃🏽🎄

We also finished our habitat masterpieces! These pieces show the 4 habitats we have looked at in detail during our topic, Grasslands, deserts, oceans and forests. These required pupils to use a variety of different techniques and materials such as watercolour, layered paper, salt painting, and coloured pencils – and they look fabulous !!! 🐬🐳🦒🐫
