Maths Week Scotland
Last week was Maths Week Scotland and P5 completed a STEM challenge as part of this.
We worked in mixed groups to make rockets. We tested out our designs and made any necessary adjustments to try and get our rockets to launch the further 😊 🚀.
Writing Time
We started the first lesson of our descriptive writing block today.
We read the story of the orca and then got into groups to identify the order of the structure of a descriptive piece of writing.
Each group correctly identified the structure of the story.
We then completed some shared writing altogether about the orca 😃.
Assembly Stars!
P5a were this weeks assembly stars 🌟 we enjoyed an extra play on the trim trail as a reward 👏.
To end the week we had a little French sing-song 🇫🇷.
STEM – Living and Non Living Things
