We have been working really hard in Primary 5mw to learn different strategies for mental calculations.

We took part in a live coding session with other schools all across Scotland. We used scratch to create games and moving animals. We really enjoyed it and some of us have been using it at home too.

Maiya has been really enjoying writing. We have been working hard to use more ambitious vocabulary in our writing.

Primary 5MW have been learning about living things and food chains as part of our Australia Topic. Thomas is keen to learn about Steve Irwin.

We planted daffodil and crocus bulbs as part of a national project. We need to check the rainfall and temperature everyday and record them in a national data base.

We’ve been keeping fit doing cross country running and are trying to improve our distances. Brooke has really enjoyed doing gymnastics – it has been a great start to our Thursday mornings!

We are looking forward to learning more about Australia and watching our bulbs grow!!
