A very fast week with lots of things to learn and take part in for Primary 5B.
On Monday we practised our Christmas party dances (after completing our Spelling and Literacy Tasks)
Monday afternoon we continued to learn about money in our math lesson. We then became Santa’s Helpers by creating lovely Christmas gifts to sell at our Enterprise Show on Friday the 15th of December. On Tuesday we joined with Primary 5A to rehearse for our Show. On Wednesday we had our Recorder practise with Mrs Morrison.
In RE this week we have continued our Novena to St. Margaret. We also learned about the life of St. Andrew, in preparation for his feast day on Thursday. Both of these saints are patron saints of Scotland and set us an example of how to live by caring for others. We also led the first Advent service for Primary 5 and Primary 4 classes. It was a lovely service with great singing.
On Thursday we had our Scottish Country Dancing with Primary 5A . Lots of fun with Mrs Callaghan and Mrs Miller joining in. On Thursday afternoon we had our Flu immunisations and then went off to the library. This time we were able to settle down and spend time reading in the lovely space. Mrs Miller has library registration forms for anyone who is not already a member. The best part was that it was snowing a little bit as we were walking to the library.
We continued learning about Hydro Power in Science and began a challenge which we hope to complete next week. 
We also made a fantastic christmas display on our classroom doors. Amazing surprises hidden in some of these presents. 
As part of our Journey towards Rights Respecting School Gold Award we focussed on Article 12 (respect for the views of the child): Every child has the right to express their views, feelings and wishes in all matters affecting them, and to have their views considered and taken seriously. This right applies at all times. As part of our house groups on Friday pupils from all classes came together to create postcards about how their rights are respected, protected and supported in Our School community. We hope everyone has a fantastic weekend. God bless.
