The children made a floor display for their optical art work.

What great fun P5 had at their final swim of the session!

A couple of children have been bringing Uno cards into class to play as part of our card games for soft start.  This game was very confusing to many in the class so Mrs A decided to teach everyone how to play the game “Switch” which is very similar to “Uno”.  Here you can see we were having great fun – even Mrs A wanted to join in!

Of course, she didn’t win!!

I’d just like to say a huge thank you to all pupils and parents for the great effort they made in our 80’s themed day!  Everyone looked amazing and just the part for our show piece.  Now I just have to work out how to put all the clips together!  Many thanks once again.  Your commitment to our learning is very much appreciated.

As our decade is the 80s could everyone in P5 come to school on Tuesday wearing any 80’s styles – bright clothes, leg warmers, denim or leather jackets, track suits (shell suits if any still exist!!)  Curly or spiky hair dos.  Children have been researching some of the hairstyles, music and fashion from this era and have found much of it to be hilarious – particularly  “the mullet”!!!   Have another look with your child online and come up with a similar outfit.

Any other 80s memorabilia would be welcome – old mobile phones (the brick) cassette players etc.  We are hoping to film our decade on Tuesday.  Let’s ROCK the 80’s!!!

Having fun exploring the 80’s music and dancing along!
