This week we have been looking at the different weights of objects within our classroom.
We used weighing scales to measure the weight of each item.
Everyone in the room had a good to estimate of how many cubes it would take for the scales to balance.
Look at all the busy boys and girls 😀
In Mr Campbell’s the boys and girls have been learning about the upcoming World Cup in Qatar.
The boys and girls have been looking at the flags of the 32 countries that will take part. Can you name all 32?
Our excited Year 4’s headed to Gortin Glens as part of a school trip with our cluster schools, Donemana Primary School and St Michael’s Primary School (Donemana). When we arrived we met the other boys and girls from both schools and we were put into groups to complete a number of tasks.
These groups took part in a number of activities including finding wooden sculptures of animals, tree identification and making fireworks from leaves that had fallen from the trees nearby.
We finished off a great day when we got to play in the fantastic park.
Have a look at the pictures to see how much fun we had 😀.
Thank you to the team at Gortin Glens for a fantastic day.
The mobile library visits our school every other Wednesday morning for P2, P3 and P4. Dennis our library van driver loves his visits to Artigarvan and the boys and girls love visiting the library van to choose a book.

On Wednesday we were learning about St Patrick. Afterwards we completed some art work. First we cut out a template of a shamrock. ☘️ We then held it in place on another page and used our fingers to dab the paint around the outline of the shamrock. When we removed the template it showed the outline of the shamrock. Have a look at our super art work.
This week we have been looking at symmetry, we have been trying to find symmetrical items within our room.
We have also been looking at the lines of symmetry in shapes.
On Thursday we made our very own symmetrical cards. We first folded the page in half then put blobs of paint in a pattern. When we folded the other half of the page over we pressed it down and held it for 10 seconds. Have a look at our finished cards.
What a fantastic effort that was made by our children, staff and parents today for World Book Day. The children were allowed to wear pyjamas or a book character costume and the effort put in was amazing.
Well done to each of you. 😁
