Measuring

Primary 5 have had a busy week preparing for our assembly. Thank you to all our friends and family who came along to watch!

In other areas, we have been busy developing our measuring skills. We worked in pairs to investigate different statements about the human body, such as 'your arm span is equal to your height' or your 'forearm is the same length as you shin.'

Fun with Fractions

P5 have been enjoying learning about fractions this week. We have been exploring fractions in many different ways, such as equivalent fractions, fractions of numbers and using different coloured Skittles to show a fraction. We especially enjoyed the Skittles activity because we got to eat a couple at the end!
