This has been a busy week in primary 5. We have been practising hard for our assembly; on the 27th in which we will share with you some interesting stories about the Vile Victorians; in maths we have had the pleasure of welcoming in some parents during the PATPAL where primary 5 shared our excellent strategies for the 4 operations and in language we have continued our block on righting instructions and created a ‘The Bedroom Tidier’.

 

Maths

Thanks for all that came along on Wednesday morning it was good to see so many happy faces and for the pupils to share their learning with you. We hope that you learned something new and that it gives you an insight into how we are learning maths in class. We have continue applying what we have learnt by working hard on our division skills the rest of the week.

 

English

As mentioned above we continued to write instructions about inventions.  Last week we created teacher pleaser machines and this week we have created bedroom tidiers (this must be useful for most of the class). The writing produced has been fantastic and star writers this week are Ellis, Lotte, Leia and Annabelle.

 

LAC

Our journey back in time to the Victorian era has led us to learning about the differences between poor and rich children this week. We learned how hard life was for poor Victorian children and how they did not have many toys. Most of us thought that working for a living sounded like a bad idea.  As well as this we have continued to work hard on our assembly and it is starting to sound really good! All pupils who need one have been given a costume and the girls thought they looked a little silly. All pupils should wear dark shoes and sensible clothing to wear under their costume (t shirt and tights for girls, white shirt,polo or t-shirt for boys with dark trousers, hat optional).

Finally…
