Numeracy in room 7




Room 7 Numeracy!

In Room 7 we were put into our maths groups: Triangles,    Squares 
and Circles. We all have our own Group boxes and Problem solving boxes. We all take turns with Ms Rodman on the mat for a lesson while the other groups do group boxes or activity sheets. We are in our own class for maths for two terms, then we go back into our own old maths class! 

On Tuesday we were set a task. One of the groups got given a piece of paper each and had to fold it into quarters, eighths etc to look at Equivalent Fractions. We all had different strategies. We learn Numeracy on Monday's, Tuesday's, Wednesday's and Thursday. We also recently learnt how to add fractions!   See you later

Fifeshire Responsibility


                    Fifeshire Responsibility
As this terms virtue is 'responsibility', room 7 and eight gathered together on Monday to act out and take some pictures about responsibility!  We were provided with cameras, and got put into teams of 5. We then thought of an idea that demonstrated responsibility. E.g  someone was in the tree and got told to get off!  We had a variety of ideas.... So the five groups reported their work  to the teacher.  She was really impressed with what we had accomplished ! She plugged the cameras into her laptop one by one, then downloaded the pictures. Next session we will add speech bubbles and make them into an interesting comic!
