P5 have been busy prepping for their Viking show which is in November. Here they are designing and creating their shields. See the finished results at the show.

P5 had to test their partner’s knowledge of punctuating direct speech by skimming and scanning their novels for examples and then dictating sentences.

P5 should be very proud of their teamwork during our longboat STEM challenge. They all worked incredibly hard to stick to the ‘Success Criteria’ and produced some amazing results. Well done P5!

P5 have been learning about place value up to Hundreds of thousands. They then had to apply this knowledge to a range of activities such as:

• Create a structure using lego and calculate the value based on their own key
• Race to 100 using Dienes (this was tense)
• Sumdog challenges
