P6 Report from 2nd September
John – I loved the Oliver Twist show. It was funny and I really enjoyed it.
Holly – I liked drawing the Boy at the Back of the Class characters because it would be cool to see what they would look like if they were real.
Nathan – I enjoyed Oliver Twist because there were only 4 people doing it. It was very clever because they had to change costumes very fast. I also enjoyed helping Mrs Findlay with the lunches.
Maizy – I liked PE because I like basketball and sports.
Caleb – I liked the PE because we did some basketball.
Poppy – I really liked how we got to draw Minions for our class charter. I got really frustrated at the start because I couldn’t get it the way I wanted it and I had to start again.
James – I liked doing the basketball because I like basketball and I like doing the shooting and passing.
Maddie – I liked the maths because there was a limit of time to get it finished and I liked that challenge.
Rayyaan – I liked the story of Little Charlie that we made up in class. It was very funny because he fell into some dog poo!
Safia – I liked being a lunchtime monitor. It was good helping the little ones and serving the milk and water.
Anya – I liked doing the TJ maths books because you get to have a big space in your jotter to write it out. You get to set out your work nicely. I also learned about parallel lines and getting to draw some.
Mathew – I liked the maths because were learning up to millions. When we were adding 1000, 100, 10 and taking away. I liked playing Calum’s Shark game in PELVPS Window into Learning – Term 1
Sophia – I like science because I liked learning more about the planets. I always knew the names but now I know much more. The rings of Saturn are made from rocks and ice. I was happy because I got my maths done quickly and I realised it was easier than I thought it would be.
Welcome to P6!
It has been a great week back after the holidays. Everyone seems to have settled in very quickly to new routines. It sounds like everyone had a fabulous break.

First Week of February Reflections
This week we welcomed a new pupil, Sophie, into our class. P5 have been busy making friends and demonstrating our school value of compassion.
It has been another busy week of learning starting with a visit from Senora Gordon and Senorita Martinez who came to teach us some Spanish greetings. We have followed the lesson up in class by watching The Gruffalo in Spanish and listening for some familiar words while trying to pick up some new ones. It was a great way to celebrate Language Week Scotland.
We have continued to prepare for our writing project by using a storyboard with 2 timelines so that we can coordinate the 2 different time periods in our stories.
Our main focus of maths has been multiplying and dividing using formal written methods. We have been building in lots of practice on the 6x and 8x tables.
Looking forward to next week, we have another Spanish lesson on Monday and we will focus on Health and Wellbeing for Children’s Mental Health Week.
Window Into Learning P5

Week ending 17th September
Another great week for P5. We have really pushed on with maths and our LVPS 20th birthday project. We welcomed back Madame Moore on Thursday and she taught us some words and phrases we could use to talk about ourselves.
I hope everyone has a great, refreshing holiday over the weekend and I can’t wait to hear all about it on Wednesday when we all return.
