Another Busy Week

Week 3 has been another busy one in P5.  

We have been working hard on creating our persuasive leaflets for a country we picked.  This has involved researching information about our country, selecting appropriate images and also designing an eye catching leaflet.  

In maths we have finished our Information Handling topic.  We have demonstrated our skills in collecting information using a survey and displaying the data on a bar graph.  Some of us also worked hard on sorting information within Venn, Carroll and Tree diagrams. 

To end the week we competed in our 2nd activity within the mini olympic tournament.

This week it was athletics.  We competed in a relay race, shot put, long jump and javelin.  

Here are the medals for this week.  

Welcome to Primary 5

It is great to be back at school and we are busy getting underway with our main learning topics.

In maths we are focusing on Information Handling.  We have been busy collecting, organising and displaying lots of different types of information.

We had a bit of fun with some Skittles and worked on creating tables and graphs using these yummy sweets.

We have also made a start on our class topic 'Our World'.  So far we have been learning about the names and locations of the continents and oceans.  We have also been trying to learn the names of as many countries as possible.  This is our class challenge for the next few weeks.  

To link in with our topic, our class PE this term will take the format of a 'Mini Olympics Tournament'.  

This week we competed in Basketball.

We split into 4 teams and each team is representing one of the world countries.  

Blue Team: Great Britain

Orange Team:  Japan

Red:  Australia

Blank:  Jamaica
