This week has really flown in with lots of things happening within P6/5. Read on to hear what we have been up to:

· Fraser & Alfie – in music this week we were learning Gospel and sang a song from Sister Act and also a song called Little Light of Mine.

· Katie – we were learning our colours in French this with Mrs Ewing and she gave us extra table points if everyone in each group knew these.

· Alfie – we were all given our logins and password for the maths application Sumdog. This is a maths programme with games using maths questions. There is a competition next week for Maths Week so we can use these to answer questions for the competition.

· Eve – we started the weekly Special Person this week and the P6/5 Special Person is…Fraser! Well done!

· Callum – in maths this week we were doing place value – Mrs Rankin gave us a class treasure hunt to find and solve. We are all Ace Number Code Crackers!

· Hannah – we were working with P3/2 this week and began being Playground Pals and Lead Learners with them on Tuesday afternoon. Some of us have 2 pals!

· Brogan – we were looking at wind energy again this week to come up with ideas for models we could try to make for the Levenseat competition which is due at the end of the month. We all came up with ideas and we have narrowed it down to 3 ideas which we will try to make in the next couple of weeks.

· Charley – The P5s went swimming to Fauldhouse on Wednesday afternoon. We all enjoyed it.

· All – we had a punctuation lesson with Mrs Rankin & Mrs Warden as well. We worked in 2 groups – one group had sentences with the correct punctuation and one group had sentences with incorrect punctuation. We created posters relating to these and when we compared these, they were so different! It showed us how important it is that we use punctuation correctly in our writing.

Junk needed please!

For our wind energy models, would it be possible to look through your recycling bin for any large 2 litre plastic bottles, cardboard and kitchen roll tubes – no toilet roll tubes please as these are too small for our models.

Have a nice weekend!
