Primary 5 have recently been working on Perimeter in Numeracy. They have identified the basic equation for Perimeter and have been experimenting with a variety of dimensions using Minecraft on the iPad. The children have then presented their findings in the Pic Kids Collage App to demonstrate their understanding of Perimeter. The children have enjoyed this task and showed excellent skills in the Apps they were expected to use. Take a look at our gallery to see how the children got on and to view some of the finished projects:

Primary 5 had great fun completing their topic of Penguins with a Blubber Investigation.
Together they carried out an investigation to identify whether Penguin Blubber actually insulates a Penguin in cold climates. Each child got to wear a glove which was not insulated in an ice cold bowl of water and then again in a glove insulated with Blubber (lard). The children compared the results of each glove and concluded that the Penguin's Blubber is definitely a much needed insulation in the cold climate of the Antarctica!

Primary 5 have been enjoying learning about Friendship in PDMU with Mrs Matthews on Tuesday afternoons. They had great fun building the friendship web in the photographs. Every time they said something nice to someone the web grew but when someone said something unkind the web was broken.

Primary 5 recently entered a competition through the C2k Newsdesk. The competition involved the pupils building a character profile on their favourite character from a Novel. Each pupil completed a profile and uploaded it to the Newsdesk. Out of over 500 entries 10 winners were announced this morning via the Newsdesk. Primary 5 are delighted to have 2 winners amongst the 10. One winner was from Mrs Peacocke's class while the other was from Mrs Williamson's. Both teachers are delighted with all of the pupils for submitting their work and of course celebrated in the winners success today during a whole class assembly. The children will receive a visit from a Newsdesk Reporter next week and the two winners will get a Newsdesk goodie bag each.
Congratulations Primary 5!
