P5i Maths, but not as you may know it
Children enjoyed their Maths lesson today as we consolidated knowledge on Time conversion 
and then we developed mathematical calculations by playing an extended game of Bingo. They were also challenged whilst playing Three Card Trump and Game 500. These are games you can play at home to help support your child with times tables and number operations.
Could I also remind pupils and parents that a new page has been set up using Microsoft Teams and children can access it through their normal Glow login. Mrs Wright has set up a survey for all pupils to complete and I have included a copy of our class poem. Teams can be accessed using phones, tablets, laptops, xBox and PS4.
If you would like any more details about using Teams, please do not hesitate to contact me – or ask your child’s friends if they have been at school this week.

P.S. I have updated Maths games on Bug Club to help revise Decimals, Fractions and Percentages.
Farewell Calin!
Calin is off on an exciting new adventure as he starts at his new school soon. He will be missed but not to worry as he promised he’ll be back for a visit!
Primary 5T had a great time today as they made some kind crafts and messages to share with Calin. They also had the chance to say their goodbyes and have ANOTHER PARTY!
Below are pictures from their first day in P5 together and his last day.
Good luck Calin 🙂
P5 Book Bonanza
Ah what a bunch of characters we have in P5!
The children had a great today in their costumes and enjoyed a number of activities to celebrate World Book Day. Thanks to all who participated.

P5i Castle Presentations
Today we finally heard all presentations and had a chance to see all 25 castles. What a successful homework project this turned out to be. Each and every castle had at least one element that stood out from the rest, making the decision to choose 3 winners really hard. In fact, so hard, I asked Mrs Findlay to do the honours.
I hope you enjoy looking at the efforts of all P5i children, and again, accept my thanks for supporting your child to complete their task and to be such successful learners. Well done one and all.
Many congratulations to Kye, Megan and Lyle for your super castles. You made Mrs Findlay’s job even harder.

Are P5i For or Against Homework?
Today we had a discussion about homework and children had a very h
ealthy and emotive debate about the pros and cons.
This photo shows how our class voted. Which way did your child vote?
Chivalry alive and well in P5i
As you can see from the photos, children had a real giggle today performing acts of chivalry – once they learned what they were!
Holding doors open and pulling out chairs for girls or helping them on with their coats seems to be a thing of the past –
but from now on… who knows? 
Shields at the ready!
Primary 5T previously designed a Coat of Arm and have now made them into a shield. Each shield includes a flag, an illuminated letter for their surname and an animal and pattern that represent different qualities. The children have worked hard and as you can see they have done a fantastic job! Well done to all 🙂
P5i Poetry
It was a very hard decision, but many congratulations to Luke who was chosen to represent our class in next week’s poetry competition.
Also worth celebrating was the completion of our class shields. A lot of thought and effort has gone into making them, and as you can see, everyone is delighted with their efforts. Now we just have to find some space to display them?
P5 Poets
Wow, didn’t they do well!
Primary 5i, 5K and 5T took part today in reciting their poems to their peers. Congratulations for the fantastic effort put in by all.
Finalists will be chosen by Thursday to represent their class at assembly next week. Good luck to all!
Team P5 🙂
