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.

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.

This week Year 4 went to meet up with our friends from Bready and St Mary’s at Melvin. This week we had flipstars in to help us with our dancing skills. Everyone had loads of fun learning new dance moves and learning to do some cartwheels.
