Hello and welcome to P5b!
Our class teacher is Mrs Quantick and we have 33 pupils in the class.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
P.E day will be a Tuesday with Mrs Roy. Please wear sportswear on this day. Some lessons may take place outside so dress for the weather!
This week we have been focusing on telling the time in minutes to the hour. Pupils have been finding this more challenging than past the hour. It would be beneficial for pupils to be exposed to this at home. This can be done during every day activities like discussing the time you leave for an activity or encouraging your child to tell you the time at random points in the day. Telling the time on a digital clock is easier than an analogue clock. We were also discussing trustworthy sources of information in our technology lesson. We discussed the websites that we trusted like the BBC website and Newsround, and the ones that can give us misinformation like social media sites.
Homework Due 23.3.26
Reading – See reading record for details of this. Some groups have been given an individual task to complete. Pupils have had experience of doing all the tasks together as a group. Now, pupils have individual tasks to complete so everyone will have something different to discuss. The landslides have a play script. Their focus is on reading with expression in the style of the character.
Red Nose Day Competition – All pupils have come home with the Red Nose Day competition entry for homework. This is due on Tuesday 24th March. Although all pupils have access to the sheet, only those who have made a donation to Comic Relief will be put forward for the competition. The theme for P5 is seasons!
Numeracy – In class we have started to work on ‘Time’. This week we have been showing what we already know about time in both analogue form and digital form. As part of this learning we will also be calculating durations, reading timetables and looking at 24 hour times over the next few weeks. To consolidate what we have been doing this week click on a few of the following links and play some of the time games on the sites.
