P5 Week Beginning 1/11/21

Dear Parents and Carers,

Children who were signed up for Flu vaccination were given this today.

This week:

Reading – please see reading book for homework.

Spelling – please see spelling jotter for the pattern or sound they are learning. I have changed some of the spelling, there is still a requirement for children to do sentences and to learn their spelling pattern. As there are more words in the list I have suggested they focus on the words that they are not so sure about.

P.E. is as usual on Tuesday and Thursday afternoon.

Wednesday we have Mandarin as normal.

As COP26 is currently on in Glasgow we will be doing some activities around this to help the children understand climate change and the impact it is having on our planet.

I have signed our class up to do a few online workshops over the next few weeks, these will, I hope be interesting and informative for the children. This week we are doing the following:

Tuesday: Threats to Nature (from the World Wildlife Fund)

Friday: ‘School of Fish’ which is an art session using recycling but also learning about the ocean.

Please send in any tetra pak cartons you have, we are still collecting them for the session on Friday.

Parent consultations are on Wednesday and Friday this week. Appointment times went home today, if the time does not suit you please contact the school office.

If you have requested a telephone appointment these will take place the following week.

Many thanks,

Lisa Cumming
