P5 Scots Poetry Competition

Just  a reminder from P5i, P5K, P5T

Pupils who wish to be entered  for the Scots Poetry Competition  on Thursday 6 February, will have the opportunity to recite their poem to all of their P5 peers on Monday, and one pupil will be chosen to represent each class.  Good luck to those taking part.

 

Have a lovely  weekend.

Team P5

Childsmile

Primary 5T had a great session yesterday with Christine from Childsmile as part of our Health and Wellbeing programme. The children worked in teams to complete a sugar quiz. This involved looking at the contents of different food items and trying to work out how much sugar was in each. The children are now aware of how to check food labels, the contents their food contains and the benefits of looking after their teeth.

Hi all,

Now I have received blog training, I can now access and post on the Primary 5 blog (I hope). I am excited to share with you pictures of the hard work being done in Primary 5T and any other information that may be of interest. Thank you to Mrs Irving who has been posting on my behalf until I got set up.

Our new topic this term, Knights and Castles, is well underway and Primary 5T had a great time working in small groups to recreate a Motte and Bailey Castle using different materials as you can see. We are also in the process of creating our own Coat of Arms which we hope to make into a shield in the coming weeks. Thank you to those who have brought in some cardboard, we greatly appreciate it.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about any aspect of our topic. Thank you!

Shields homework

Some pupils were unsure about the homework task for their shields and didn’t know what information to include for their design.

Here is an example of homework  showing the symbols and colours chosen to represent their family shield. Hope this helps.

P.S. Problems with Bug Club have been reported and will be sorted asap.

 

P5i Bug Club and Time Topic Update

Thank you to all parents who sourced cardboard boxes for our topic on Knights and Castles . Children are now looking forward to making a start on their swords and shields on Monday.

I have updated the books on Bug Club  and children now have a new selection to choose from.   I have also marked and responded to the books they have read.  If they see a red or orange circle against a book, that means their answer is not correct and they should go back in and correct it. I will then change the response to green.

To help children develop their skills on the topic of Time, I have also allocated games for them to play at home. Your assistance in helping them to master the skill of telling the time is much appreciated.

Mrs Irving
