On Wednesday 13^th February 2019 P5, P5/4 and P4 performed our Scottish Celebration, we sang lots of different songs including lots of different poems such as “From a Railway Carriage” by Robert louis Stevenson and he also wrote “The Whole Duty of Children” . After we celebrated some of the parents had some tea, coffee, irn bru, short bread and we also announced some of the raffle prize winners, some of the winners were Jordan, Brogan, Emily, Adam, Jamie and Kelsey.

On Tuesday 12^th February 2019 Mrs Craig’s bike crew organised a bling your bike contest and we had to decorate it with Scottish things such as tartan, Scottish flags and also some  people even put irn bru and shortbread which was super creative.

Maths

This week in maths we were learning about how multiplication and division are linked together and have been putting them into triangles. And also we have been practicing adding money together.

Health and Wellbeing

In health and wellbeing we have been talking about how much  your top priorities cost and the value of them such as gas to keep your house going, electricity so you can cook/use electronics, food, shelter and clothes.

Literacy

This week in literacy we have been practicing our grammar and we have been looking at the hidden objects and symbols in the picture book called into the forest by Anthony Browne.

This blog post was written by Summer Brookes and Abbie McAllister.

It’s been another busy week in P5/4.

Well done to those pupils who got a Headteachers Award for their STEM Active Homework:

Thank you to all the Parents and family members who came along to the Scottish Celebration concert on Wednesday.  It was a great performace and I am so very proud of all the P4’s and P5’s.

Mrs Glancy and P5/4

It has been a busy, excellent week in P4 this week.

We learned about the history of Valentine’s Day before writing imaginative Valentine’s stories.

We had lots of fun at our Scottish Celebration evening. We would like to thank everybody who came to watch and support us. We are looking forward to learning all about how much money we have raised during this topic.

Well done to Melanie and Rachael for winning prizes during the Bling your Bike event! Your fancy Scottish bikes looked great!

We have also enjoyed some Valentine’s art with Miss Adam.

Have a lovely long weekend!

Primary 4 and Miss Calder

Well done to Kirsty and Jack who took on the Tech Team responsibilities on Friday at assembly because P6 and P7 were at CAB.

Also to Artemis, Amy-leigh. Kallie-Marie and Jordon for taking on the responsibilities of the JR’s.

You all did a fabulous job! Maybe P5 need to take over more often!

Primary 4 and Primary 5 put on a successful Scottish Celebration last night. They performed songs and poems from several Scottish artists and made their teachers very proud.

The money that they have raised through ticket sales and selling shortbread and Irn Bru will go towards an excursion for all 3 classes. We will have to work together to figure out the amount of money we have made and take into account any expenses before discussing between our classes what we would like to do.

Here are some moments from their evening.

Our Junior Librarians asked every child and adult in the school to write or draw the title of a book that they love to read on a love heart.

They created this wall display to show how much we love books at Murrayfield.

We’ve had another busy week in Primary 5/4. We have been practicing hard for our Scottish Celebration Evening which is on Wednesday 13th February 6-7pm. We also celebrated the Chinese New Year and did some imaginative writing. We have continued to work on our division.

This week’s raffle prize winner is… Megan!

A big thank you to our student, Miss Stewart who has been working with us for 5 weeks.

Have a lovely weekend,

Mrs Glancy & P5/4
