What we have been up to in Primary 5!
🎄Christmas in Primary 5🎄
The Primary 5 pupils designed Christmas pictures and drew them into polystyrene, rolled different colours of paint on them and then printed them onto material.
The children in P5 made use of a hacksaw, vice and hammer to create their own Christmas trees from balsa wood. This involved a lot of measuring to make sure each branch of their tree was accurate in its placement.
Keeping with the theme of Christmas trees, the children made Christmas cards and used their ICT skills to decorate and type a personalised message for their families.
We were able to filter dirty water by making our own water filters.
The Primary 5 children have been finding out about The Great Plague.
During this time in history, people carried a posy made of herbs which they held over their nose and mouth to stop them from breathing in the bad air.
Thank you to Eugene from Clogher Valley for coaching us in Tag Rugby.
We had a thoroughly enjoyable time!
As part of our Water topic in Primary 5, we have been looking at the importance of water for our bodies.
We have found out the names of the main bones of the skeleton and learned that, to keep our bones healthy, we need to drink water, eat a healthy balanced diet and exercise regularly.
