1st Star: We used our imagination to create a mythical sea creature and wrote an adventure story all about it.
2nd Star: We researched sea pollution and the effect it has on our oceans. We made posters to raise awareness of ways to stop it.
Wish: We are very excited to share our Under the Sea projects with each other. We have all been working very hard to create posters and power points!
First star: We really enjoyed our Shadow & Light assembly this morning – we hope everyone else did too!
Second star: In P.E this week, we got to play the games that we had created ourselves!
We really wish we could do cooking!!
1st star – We enjoyed learning about our sense of smell in science this week. We got to smell some nice things but we didn’t enjoy the smell of vinegar!
2nd star – We enjoyed learning the sounds ‘a’ and ‘t’ this week. Miss Napier was impressed with how many words we could think of beginning with ‘t’.
Wish – We would like to learn more about our other senses in science next week.
Hello from P5!
We have had a very busy week in P5. We had lots of suggestions for our Two Stars and a Wish!
Star 1:
Writing Haiku’s as part of National Poetry Day (6th October). We came up with some fabulous Haiku’s. Ask your child to explain what a Haiku is and share their’s with you!
Star 2:
Playing our own games in PE. Mrs Lloyd set us a challenge to create a game, including rules. In PE this week we played two of the games. Well done to Darren, Finlay, Zander and Mark (game 1) and Emma, Lauren and Sophie (game 2) for creating such fun games!
Wish:
Our class wish for next week is to have another chance to use Incredibox! This is an ICT application to create pieces of music. This week we focused on beat and tempo.
Class Awards
Star of the week: Imogem Henderson: Lauren nominated Imogem for always being ready to learn!
Class lottery winner: Zander Park
Well done to you both.
Hope you all have a lovely weekend!
Miss Preston and P5
I have attached below a document on Snapchat. This is one that some of our children use – however they don’t see the dangers that this can have introduce them to. As always, social media, whatever type, needs to be used wisely.
This week in P6 we have enjoyed learning more about Civil Rights and have even written our own I Have a Dream speeches. We have continued our art project with Mr Laughlin and have added instruments to our song practice. During Literacy Circles we had an amazing four purple cards given out to Jenna, Rory, Logan and Jake who all created amazing creations for their Creative Captain homework!
Star – Creating our French colourful rainbows.
Star – Writing our own I Have a Dream speeches.
Wish – We wish that next week we behave better and are a happier class with no lost golden time!
1st Star – We loved making our portholes for our Under the Sea theme. We choose a tropical, Arctic or deep ocean scene to demonstrate our knowledge of what each habitat looked like.
2nd Star – We enjoyed our introduction to Number Talk. We liked the idea of sharing strategies with the other members in our class.
1 Wish – We would love to do harder sums.
First star: We really enjoyed having Miss Muir come in to work with us on Wednesday. We can’t wait for her to come back next week!
Second star: Larisa brought in a slideshow of photographs of her new baby sister. It was lovely|!
Our wish: We wish Anna a very happy birthday tomorrow!
Happy Friday from P5! 🙂
