Making Maths Matter…
Learnign Maths can be fun. Students explored different ways of making pairs of 5. Then they proceeded to counting in fives.
During one of the lessons students explored the difference between tall / short, and long short. Using visual aids and specifically designed cards, the students worked together to learn about spatial awareness.
Sorting numbers in order up to 30 has never been easier. Students were given various tools to practice sequencing numbers, including lacing, sorting and use of Bee-bot to learn about sequencing while coding.
During another lesson, students worked in pairs to learn about pairs, counting in 2s and distinguishing between tens and ones.
In a classroom buzzing with fun students learned about shapes through various activities. Bee-bot was used to learn coding while finding the correct shape. Shape templates were used to create pattern, thus exploring the edges of shapes. Geoboards were used to create shapes and plasticine was used to build templates of a brick wall using rectangles.

Nouns… people, places, animals, things…
Students learned about nouns during a Maltese and English lesson. Nouns were used to label pictures. Nouns had to be found in sentences. Students created their own nouns using lego blocks. Nouns were also sorted in categories.
During another Maltese lesson, students worked in pairs to distinguish between ‘h’ and ‘ħ’. Again various activities, promoting learning through play, were used to encourage students to learn to make a distinction between these 2 letters.

Plant in a Mug…
Children enjoyed themselves planting their own plants in an old mug they got from home. Students placed some soil in the mug and planted a plant which comes from the cactus family. They further discussed these type of plants and where they come from, what they need to grow and which other plants form part of this family.
After planting, all plants were placed on the classroom windowsill to decorate the class, while ensuring that the plants get enough sun light.

During one of the school outings the students watched a play about believing in oneself. Following the play, the students made some craft related to the activity.
Following a Social Studies lessons about typical Maltese food, the students prepared a Maltese Ftira with ‘kunserva’ (a tomato paste) and olives.
Above the students are working together by creating addition sums using number beads. They also explored what happens to numbers when using 10 more and 10 less or 1 more and 1 less.
Celebrating the First Holy Communion
The school celebrated the First Holy Communion of the Year 2 students, together with their teachers, parents and learning support assistants. The students prepared crafts which were displayed on notice boards for this special occasion. The school would like to thank the school council and parents helpers for ensuring the success of this event.
Doubling
The year 3.2 students learned about doubling in a fun way! They used paint to discover the doubles of numbers up to 10 and then beyond. Coins helped them to discover the doubles of different amounts of money. They also took part in other educational games and activities to become doubling champions!
