Pumpherston and Uphall Station CPS Blog
A place for news, information and sharing learning from PUSCPS
This week, Primary 5 have been learning about racism and the serious impact it has on victims and their families. We read about the sickening story of Antony Walker and were shocked to find out how he was treated. We wrote letters to his family to share how their story made us feel and our hopes for the future. We hope that all people learn about the impact of their actions and how dangerous and upsetting racism can be.
This week, we are learning Scots poetry. Please practice with us at home so we feel confident to recite our poems next week.
Your child will have one of these poems to practice in their bag.
Thank you,
Miss Hall & Primary 5 🙂
We have been enjoying reading our class novel The Christmasaurus. We read about the Northern Lights and learned about how the colours are made in the sky. We enjoyed some sensory play to create swirled patterns like we saw in the pictures. We also created beautiful artwork using oil pastels and blending. 
P5 took part in Google’s Be Internet Legends Day through a Virtual Assembly. We learned about staying safe and being kind on line. We are Internet Legends.    
To finish off our Chance and Probability topic, we have completed a STEM challenge. We made theoretical predictions about coin toss and dice rolling. We carried out a series of challenges to see if our expectations were correct.
Primary Five have been learning all about Guy Fawkes and Bonfire Night. We used paper to create images of the sky on Bonfire Night.
