Year 3/4 making graphs / charts
2nd Feb 2026

Today the Year 3/4’s had a good time making their own charts and graphs. We collected our data using tally charts then used that information to create their graphs or charts. The children logged into Just 2 easy using their QR codes and found the programme JIT. They then experimented with several different graphs/charts before entering the information into a bar chart. Have a look at the pictures to see how they did this.

Museum on the move
30th Jan 2026
This week we have had a fantastic lesson from Colleen from the Ulster Museum. We looked at seascapes and how we would create them. We started of by using woodies to draw in some lines of the horizon then started to add details to our pictures. We then added water to our drawing which turned the pictures into painting. Have a look at what we did. Our finished masterpieces are outside our classroom.
