Thank you to Celtic Football Club for coming along every Tuesday to work with Primary 5. We are learning a lot about healthy lifestyles, healthy eating and football skills as well.
Football Training for Primary 5
Visit from the SSPCA
Thank you very much to Alex from the SSPCA who came to work with pupils from Gartcosh Primary School today. We learned a lot about a variety of animals and enjoyed creating and programming our very own rabbit pets.
Writing Instructions – Decorating Biscuits
During November and December, Primary 5 focused on writing instructions as part of the taught writing lessons. Pupils decided they would like to base instruction writing on biscuit decorating.
Christmas Party
Primary 5 and Primary 6 had a fabulous time at their Christmas party. Take a look at some of these photographs.
Stamina Building in P.E.
Primary 5 have been building their stamina during the last few weeks in P.E. and are now able to run for longer periods of time and manage their breathing more effectively. Take a look…
Welcome to our Primary 5 Class Blog!
Here we are during P.E, busting out some cool artistic Hip Hop moves with the help and expertise of our professional dance coach Kirsty, at BLOK Dance Academy Gartcosh.
We look forward to updating you soon on what we have been learning in literacy, numeracy and IDL.
In the News!
As part of our ‘In the News’ topic we worked in groups to create an opening theme tune for our own news shows. After listening to theme songs for various news shows, we decided that our pieces had to have a fast beat, sound serious and build up at the end.
We had lots of fun experimenting with the instruments then performed our finished pieces to the class.
Yoga Tuesdays!
Every Tuesday, Primary 5 have been disappearing to the quietness of Mrs Neilly’s room to do some yoga. We have been practising our sun salutations and helping each other with the postures.
At the beginning and end we lie in Shavassna and enjoy some peaceful relaxation and meditation. We finish by saying ‘Om shanti shanti shanti’ which means peace in body, speech and mind.
Newspaper Reporting!
We have been exploring the features of newspaper reports this week as we will soon be writing our own!
Santander Visit
We had our final visit from Santander on Monday. We learned about different ways to pay for things and how to keep our details safe. The workshops have been really interesting and will be useful in the future! A big thanks to Santander!
