Christmas Week

It’s been a crafty Christmas week in P5/6. There might not have been many of us in school but we took our Christmas cheer to the next level. We made lots of crafts including our own crackers (complete with joke, hat and treat), festive stones, hama bead decorations and gingerbread houses. We also had time for a Christmas movie and some snacks.

We would like to wish you all a very happy and healthy Christmas and best wishes for the new year.

See you all in 2022.

WINNER WINNER WINNER

Arty Antonia bagged herself a huge chocolate hamper after winning a competition.  Antonia won first place in the ‘Lost Elf’ poster competition run by Shimmer and Shine home furnishings shop in Cumnock.  She had to help some elves find their buddy who was last seen in the Rudolph Forest.   Antonia’s colourful poster was picked from more than 50 entries as the winner.

Well done Antonia.

 

Weekly Roundup – Miss Murdoch

This Thursday and Friday P5/6 have been looking at our solar system. We know that our solar system is made up of the eight planets, asteroids, dwarf planets, the sun, and moons.

P5/6 were able to make models of the individual planets and painted them to create our very own class solar system!

In maths we have been learning to tell the time using digital clock and analogue clock and have also explored the concepts of am and pm.

In writing we have been creating a narrative story and have created our characters and setting so far.

Wednesday Round-up

It has been a busy week in P5/6.  We have been working on writing an accurate summary as well as starting perimeter in maths. We have been doing some festive art as well as some STEM challenges. We made our own marble mazes and tin foil boats and if you look up at our class windows you might see some special winter art designs.
