P5a Blog – World Book Day Special!

Thursday was World Book Day and we took part in lots of different activities to celebrate this.

In the morning we took part in paired reading with Primary 2s. It was fun and nice to have an opportunity to read out loud and share a story.

All of the classes in the school wrote a part of a story which got passed all the way from Primary 1 to Primary 7. It was read over the tannoy at the end of the day. We really enjoyed hearing the story once it had been put together.

In Literacy, we worked in groups named after books. We took part in a quiz and earned points for answering questions and working well together!

There was also a treasure hunt around the school to find a letters that would spell out a word. We look forward to finding out the winner.

In PE we have continued to develop our skills for badminton. We have been doing rallies and keepy-ups to improve our co-ordination and ability to aim at targets.

This week in Maths we have been learning about angles including right, acute, obtuse, straight and reflex. The whole class have been doing zappers to help us remember our times tables but we have been practicing our 4 and 6 times tables.

Also the Cubes have been learning about time like 24 hour clocks and am and pm. The Cylinders have been identifying multiples and factors. The Spheres have been focusing on multiplication and the Cones have been learning about using money and calculating change.

Since our topic is WWII we have been reading Friend or Foe by Michael Morpurgo and the reason we are reading it is because it is about two boys called Tucky and David who are getting evacuated from London in WWII.

In Drama since our topic is WWII we have been acting out what it would be like if you were listening to the wireless on the 3rd of September 1939 at 11:15am to say that the war has been declared because Hitler and his troops have invaded Poland.

In Social Studies we have been making houses, posters and characters made out a collage of paper to make people from the 1930s.

In Science we have been making circuits to make light bulbs and motors and buzzers go with conductors and batteries. We also learned the scientific symbols for the components.

😊 Thank you for reading our blog 😊

Here is a gallery of some of our drama:
