P4/3 numeracy update

we have  had a successful start to the new year in P4/3. We are  working hard and enjoying making new friends.
in maths we have completed our first topic of place value. We have been working with numbers in the hundreds, tens and ones columns and learning the difference between a digit and a number as well as greater than and less than.  We have used practical equipment to support our learning and we have enjoyed playing maths games with others in class.

Everyday we start our lesson with a problem solving task through our Building Thinking Classrooms approach. In this part of the lesson we work in random groups and at a vertical board. Through this task we are developing our collaboration skills and are learning to share our thoughts and ideas and to listen to others.
