Primary 5NP

We love playing team games in PE and we've even done a sponsored walk this year!

We enjoy taking part in practical outdoor learning as this helps us grasp abstract concepts which can later work on in class.  We have used the outdoor environment to learn about number sequences, time and shape.  We’ve also been on a trip to the library to help foster a love of reading.

We try to make learning engaging and enjoyable in our class and this has, so far, seen us visited by a Belgian detective, present weather reports, work in the Post Office and become train passengers.  We find resources helpful in getting to grips with underlying mathematical concepts.  We will start with concrete resources, such as real money before moving onto using pictorial examples, such as using Numicon Online. 

We love outdoor learning!

We really enjoyed taking part in Maths Week Ireland where all our learning was based around practical activities.  We even took part in the Maths Olympics!

We loved all things French on the European Day of Languages.  We spoke French, learned a French song, tasted French food and had a videocall with a primary school near Bordeaux where we were able to compare our lives to those of our European neighbours.

We really enjoy being creative and doing art activities in school.  We’ve created some lovely work which is on display in our classroom, around the school and stuck to our fridges at home!

We love to celebrate our achievements, both inside and outside of school.
