Here we are having completed another week in Primary 5. We are settling in well and now getting into full swing or our curriculum.

We had our Meet the Family evening on Wednesday after school and Mrs Rankin was pleased to meet so many of our families. It is only a few more weeks until the first parent’s evening so she can meet the rest at this.

Read on to hear what we have been doing in class this week:

• Zara – we were working on place value in maths this week.
• Rose – Mrs Zohoorian was in class working on forces with us. We were using hot and cold water to see if they would float or sink.
• Jamie – we were learning about Mary Queen of Scots, our first topic of the year. We researched on the laptops in trios to see what we could find.
• All – we were working on instructional writing this week and looking at how important it is to make sure we put the steps in order.
• All – we started basketball in PE and were working on passing the ball using bounce passes, chest passes and overhead passes.
• All – we got our first lot of homework home with our first phoneme of the year – looking at ‘oi’ words.

Our Star of the Week this week id Emma-Rose. Well done Emma-Rose on displaying being Ready, Respectful & Safe at all times!

Here are a few pictures from our week including the Ambassadors who received their jumpers from Miss Wallace this week. You will all agree, they all look really smart with them!

Have a good weekend.
