P5 used beads to work out division questions. They worked with partners to calculate answers with and without remainders.

STEM CHALLENGE: P 5 worked in pairs with 4 A3 pieces of paper and a glue stick. Each group had to make a bag with four sides, a bottom and handles. The pupils worked hard and improved their bags when the handles broke. 

P5 enjoyed a great sunny morning at the Linen Museum. We took a tour through the cathedral and learnt about suffragettes. Then we went on a walk to Castle Gardens. We found out about Sir Richard Wallace, the canon, the ice house and finally we were soldiers defending the castle. After the walk, we completed our family crests. Thank you to Angus for telling us lots of facts about Lisburn and entertaining us on our trip.

P5 thought of lots of different and imaginative ways to create the number 29. 

Using arrow cards to make larger numbers into thousands. We are also able to take away and add with the arrow cards.
