Primary 5 would like to wish Dancepoint Good Luck in the Final of the Greatest Dancer, especially Charlie (a former St. Mark pupil and volunteer at many of our school shows).

Music
We have started our Rhythms topic in music. We will be working on various rhythms with an aim that we can identify them on written music notation, tapping the rhythms and singing them.
Dental Visit
On Tuesday we had a visit from a Dental Nurse. The pupils heard about the impact of sugar on our teeth. Primary 5 will now be participating in a Art competition to create a poster to encourage others to look after their teeth.
Feelings
We are continuing to learn about different feelings. We are learning to recognise different complex emotions.
This week we explored the facial expressions connected to each emotion.
World Book day
On Thursday we celebrated World Book Day with lots of different activities, we completed a scavenger hunt which tested our character knowledge, a Kahoot! Quiz, we had to design a cover for a mystery book – we had to listen to the story first and we had a visit from Mary Dickie at the Foundry who encouraged us all to join the library and get free access to thousands of books.
On Friday we discussed why we don’t wear costumes even though other schools do. Following the discussion most pupils felt that wearing the costumes was an unnecessary cost to parents.
