Welcome back Primary 5

I hope everyone had a restful Easter Break and ready to face the last term of Primary 5!

I just wanted to send a quick reminder of Home Learning in Primary 5.

There are Spelling and Maths/Numeracy tasks that learners can access online through https://www.sumdog.com/ throughout the entire term to practice the skills learned in School.

There are other online apps/games that learners could use to practice Numeracy/Maths and Literacy skills such as Defenders of Mathematica https://www.bbc.co.uk/games/embed/guardians-mathematica?exitGameUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fbbc.com%2Fbitesize%2Farticles%2Fzn2y7nb and Crystal explorers https://www.bbc.co.uk/games/embed/crystal-explorers?exitGameUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fbbc.co.uk%2Fbitesize%2Farticles%2Fzbm8scw

Additionally, every Monday, Primary 5 use the School’s Library to borrow a book of their choice which promotes reading for pleasure. We encourage families to use these books to read together at home, which has a very positive impact on the reading fluency and understanding skills of the learners.

I hope you find this helpful!

Have a lovely long weekend!!

Kindest regards,

Mr Dominguez

Adult helpers needed

Hello,

Primary 1, 2, 3/4 and 5 have been invited to attend the Edinburgh Science Festival at the National Museum of Scotland on Tuesday 21st April – the same day we return from the Easter Holidays.

We are glad to say we can take adult helpers with us.

Helpers will meet at 12:05 at school for a safety briefing and to fill in emergency forms, then leave at around 12:15.

Our two sessions run from 1:00-2:45pm.

We will then return to school as fast as we can.

We expect to return to school by 3:15 at the latest.

If you would like to be an adult helper on our trip, please fill in the form below, as soon as possible.

Happy Monday Primary 5

Just a quick message to share some photos from last Friday. Primary 5 visited the Playhouse and took part in a dancing and singing workshop! They were all fantastic!

I also would like to take the chance to remind families that Home Learning is available on Sumdog, a very engaging and interactive online platform. Every week there is a target for Maths and Numeracy and also Spelling. It can also be accessed from any device with connection to internet, from a mobile phone, to a tablet, laptop or PC.

Please get in touch if this doesn’t suit so we can work a way around it for everyone to have access to it.

Have a nice week everyone!

Kindest regards.

Mr Dominguez.
