Welcome to Primary 5 in 2017/18!

Our gym days are Thursday and Friday. Please have a gym kit in on these days including a hair band for long hair.

Information on our topics and examples of our work will follow over the next few weeks.

As a reminder, homework goes out on a Monday and comes in for Thursday. We have discussed homework expectations this week and Education City log-in and Homework Club information will be coming shortly. Please ensure completed homework is returned on time.

Your child should have a paper copy of their Reading Journal and Spelling Grid in their Homework jotter in addition to their weekly spelling lists. A copy of the latest Spelling Grid and Reading Journal will also be stored on this page.

As part of the evaluation of our latest text, ‘The Legend of Spud Murphy,’ we have been creating trailers on iMovie. We used our literacy skills to write blurbs and recommendations and then used some of the text from these when deciding what information to use in our trailer. Please enjoy watching a sample that Daniel and Muhammed have created.
