Today we are finishing off work from this week.
After break was topic. We were researching about Kenya. We learnt that you can feed giraffes for only £24.40. It was fun!

Spelling
Maths – Maths Week Scotland Challenge (see email/previous post from Mrs Johnstone).
Reading – Continue reading your novel and complete the tasks for Tuesday 25th September (because of the long weekend):
Topic – Next week in class we will be writing leaflets. Please bring in any leaflet about a tourist location for discussion in class.
Below is a letter from Mrs Dalziel regarding P4-7 Homework this year.
As part of our ongoing drive to raise attainment in literacy, Primary 4-7 homework will focus on the consistent application of correct spelling, vocabulary and punctuation in written work, rather than on learning words for a spelling test.
Spelling sounds and words which are the focus of classroom teaching will be shared and can be practised at home for the period of time set – these may be common or tricky words or linked with a specific phoneme. Class teachers will be looking for these words to be spelled and used correctly in all pupils’ written work, not just in a spelling ‘test’. Weekly literacy homework tasks may be linked to these spelling words or commonly misspelt/misused words (e.g. their, there and they’re; your, you’re) or punctuation and grammar practice, editing, proof reading or other.
P4-7 pupils will undertake Guided Reading sessions in class throughout the week and visit the school library regularly where they can select texts of their choice to read at home and/or in school. Pupils are encouraged to read for pleasure at home; class teachers will issue suitable reading texts and a set task to be completed at home within a given time. Pupils are also encouraged to bring texts from home into school to read and discuss in class.
Other homework will be issued each week which will include relevant numeracy and maths topics and activities linked to classroom learning.
Please contact the class teacher/s or me if you have any queries regarding homework.
Regards
Lorna Dalziel
Depute Head P4-7
Hello and welcome to P5M’s class blog.
The first few weeks have flown by and already P5M have been incredibly busy.
This blog is for information on what is happening in P5M, any homework or special events, as well as sharing information and photos so you can keep up to date with the children’s learning. Over the course of the year the pupils will have the opportunity to update the blog and share with you directly what has been happening in the classroom. Any comments here are most welcome, I’m sure the children would love to hear what you think.
Please find below an overview of our timetable for Term 1 which will inform you of the days the children have an activity out with the classroom.
Just a wee reminder that your child has the following in school:
If you have any queries or questions, I am more than happy for you to get in touch. You can make an appointment via the school office or for more informal queries you can reach me through Class Dojo.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch – pop a note in your child’s folder or you can make an appointment with me via the school office.
