The class loved The Sheep-Pig. A beautiful story about following your dreams, believing in yourself and the importance of good manners.

 

 

 

School Show

Thanks to all the primary 5 pupils who worked so hard to make the show a success and to the parents who helped out with costumes, transport etc. Also a great big thanks to the p4 pupils and parents who came along and supported the event. It will be your turn in 2 years time!

Great to hear at parents’ night that the vast majority of the class have been enjoying this book and it was good to hear all the different ways parents have been sharing and supporting their children.

Scottish afternoon pictures:

Since then we have had our local MSP Derek McKay in to talk to the class, we are busy campaigning in our mock election and p5 children have been auditioning for roles in the Pied Piper.

 

We learned all about the customs of Diwali.

As part of ourRME topic which created  Rangoli designs which are made outside people’s homes at Diwali to attract Lakshmi. We used our knowledge of symmetry to make them authentic.

 

 

 

I have been reading to the class more frequently and am currently reading Matilda to them. At last they can find out why I chose Miss Honey to dress up as for Roald Dahl day.

Here is an example of a storyboard done to show understanding of Livingstone’s 11 years as a missionary.

 

P5/4 have been enjoying and finding it fascinating studying the remarkable life of David Livingstone. His childhood, missionary work, anti-slavery campaign and his exploration.

 

 

 

Great day! Here are the kids dressed up. All the Roald Dahl themed costumes and the others who dressed as other characters from books.
