Another week done!
We all deserve a rest this weekend because everyone has worked really hard in P5 this week.
Pupil of the week – Carter W
Table of the week – Minions
Maths –
We have been working really hard to identify the strategies we use when doing mental maths calculations. We have all found this a bit tricky.
Lily – This is really hard but I think I am getting better at talking through the strategies I use.
Ray – I am finding it easier to find the missing number in my sums because we talk a lot about different strategies and I know what ones I need to use.
Topic-
We have used our topic as a focus for our writing this week
Eve – We wrote a letter to a nobleman about the death of Alexander III. I think the Scottish Wars of Independence is a really good topic.
Kerry – I enjoyed making a wanted poster for William Wallace.
HWB –
We all made posters on the theme of friendship. We focussed on words associated with what a good friend is.
We all wrote a post-it note about what happiness is . Here are some of our contributions –
Lucy – Happiness is …..
the smell of a cake a friend love a box of chocolates
Catherine – Happiness is ….

We have all had a great week although we are sad that we have come to the end of our class novel Gangsta Granny. On the bright side we will start Billionnaire Boy next week.
We were lerning about the moon.The moon has a very powerfull gravity that it can pull the sea and makes waves on the planet.
What is it like learning about the moon
Hi 5d,
I am interested in hearing about your maths work. It always amazes me how people can arrive at the same answer in maths but get there in entirely different ways. Are you finding this in your mental maths work?
