What a busy week we have had in Primary 5. In reading we continue learning about the Scottish Wars of Independence and what life was life for people 700 years ago. We are concentrating on extending our answers to include relevant details.
On Monday we celebrated Burns with an afternoon of poetry and singing. Our stage winners, Ryan McKie and Caitlin O’Hara performed their poems to an appreciative audience. We were very proud of all our stars!
On Tuesday NYCOS worked with both classes and we sang songs and played coordination games. This was challenging for some- even the teachers!
Our topic work has involved lots of art this week. We have been learning about and creating our own Coat of Arms, we had to carefully select animals, symbols and colours that were personal to us. These will be on display at Parent’s Evenings. Feel free to ask us all about them.
Thursday we enjoyed P.E with Mrs Ferguson and students from Edinburgh University. Some pupils participated in a gymnastics show and have worked very hard preparing for today. Well done to them all.
Please book appointments for parents nights next week and we look forward to catching up with you all.
P5F have Miss Hutchison from Edinburgh University working with us for 5 weeks and we look forward to working with her.
Thank you
Miss Farren and Mrs Jamieson
