P5D Weekly Update

Welcome to our Weekly blog. We have had lots of fun this week!

We were very  lucky to be invited to Dedridge PS to watch a production of ‘Pondlife’ which was all about friendship and bullying.

‘It was not what I thought it was going to be, it was better!’ – Maliha

‘It was very very very fun and I enjoyed it A LOT. I would rate it 100/100!’ – Aaron

‘It was good and I really liked it. I learned that you should always be nice to other people!’ – Morgan

We have been using our imaginations to write a story about our own made up food-animals which took place in our creative settings. We had to make sure our story had a clear beginning, middle and end and that our character was faced with a problem but also had a solution.

We have been learning some Scottish poetry with Mrs Smith. We learned ‘a dug a dug’, ‘To a moose’, ‘The snowman’, ‘Three craws sittin on a wa’ and lots more.

We have been working hard to put together our P3-P5 show which is something not to be missed.

In maths, we have been trying out a new interactive quiz game called kahoot. We all got a controller (netbook/ipad) and answered maths questions against the clock.  It was great fun and caused a healthy level of competitiveness in our classroom. We can’t wait to use it again.

Congratulations to Levente for being awarded our praise postcard this week for hard work and a great attitude towards learning. Well done!

Have a great weekend,

P5D and Miss Diamond.
