Hello from Primary 5.
This week we have started learning about the events leading up to the Scottish Wars of Independence. We have learned about the life of King Alexander and the problems his death caused for Scotland. We worked in partners to write a news report with his wife Queen Yolande and are looking forward to presenting these next week. We had a discussion about the succession crisis and made a Ragman Roll, which was a document written at the time to swear allegiance to King Edward. Many children have been talking about their progress with the big homework task and we are looking forward to seeing them in a week’s time.
In Maths this week we have been learning about fractions. We can record fractions as mixed numbers and improper fractions. We have also been doing some work on mltiplication in number talks.
