Welcome to our blog!

Recently, we have been learning about fractions. In particular, we have looked at fractions of shapes and identified different amounts such as quarters, halves, fifths and tenths. We have also been looking at fractions of amounts such as 1/4 of 36 and 1/5 of 2,500. We will continue to do this over the next week and home learning will reflect this.

In writing, we have been looking at narratives. So we imagined a scenario where the children arrived to school and there were no teachers! The children had to think about a title, set the scene, include a problem and think of a resolution to save the day! Mr Muller was really impressed with most of the pieces of writing he marked. Well done P5MW!

In PE we have been completing circuits. We love doing them with the other P5 class and we work our way round each station in mixed groups. We used record sheets to record our progress and try and beat our previous week’s targets.

*SHOW AUDITIONS* Please note that on Monday 30th January both P5 classes will be completing auditions for parts in the P5-7 assembly. We have given out mock scripts to those children who said they were interested in taking a big speaking part in the assembly to learn over the weekend. Each child from P5MW and P5HP has been given the equal opportunity to audition on several occasions. More roles will become available over the coming days for other parts (speaking and non-speaking) in the show.
