Hello!
Many thanks to all parents who came along for Parents’ Night- it was lovely to share how well your children are doing with you!
Lily and Nicci
Lily and Nicci were confident and responsible individuals when they went around the whole school collecting money for Sick Kids. They raised £32.10- amazing!
Well done girls- we are all very proud of you both!
Thank you to everyone who supported them.
Sharing Learning
Primary 5 visited P2, 3 and P2/3 to see how their ‘Victorian Day’ was going. Waw- they were all dressed up in Victorian clothes and were doing activities that children in those days would have done. They made dolls, kites and played Victorian games in the PE HALL. We all really enjoyed our visit- thank you very much for allowing us to come and share in your learning!
Science
In Science with Mrs Tulloch, we brought in our very own resources to make our own guitars. We used junior saws, wood, cardboard, rubber bands and wood.
We had to make 3 different pitches, it was a lot of fun!
Maths
We have been exploring multiplication strategies to help us calculate sums. We are giving every strategy a go and maintaining a growth mindset when we find sums tricky!
Mrs McCartney has definitely noticed our confidence growing, especially when we are managing to calculate extremely tricky sums.
Round Table Competition
This year’s theme is the Union Canal. Opened almost 200 years ago, it has been a central part of Linlithgow’s heritage, from the transport of goods in earlier times to becoming a haven for wildlife and leisure pursuits nowadays. Primary 5 were asked to take part in a writing competition: A story or a poem about the canal, e.g. how does the canal enrich our life? What do we love about the canal?
Our entries were fantastic!
Bridge Testing
We were delighted to showcase our bridges at Parents’ Night. We received lovely feedback about impressive they were!
We all tested our bridges this week- this was a lot of fun!
Lots of our bridges managed to hold 7 food tins!
Thank you to all who helped us make our bridges.
Things to remember:
Easter Bonnet for Wednesday 29th March- thank you!!
Many thanks for taking the time to read our blog.
We all hope that you have a fantastic weekend!
Mrs McCartney and P5A x
