We have been learning about the geographical features of the United Kingdom on a variety of maps. We had a great time finding the capital and major cities, rivers, mountains and seas. We also used our linking skills to find places that we have studied in the past. @BSMuscat
In Year 5, we have been learning all about poetic devices. We listened carefully to one another’s ideas and asked great questions to check for understanding. Try to spot our use of rhyme, alliteration, metaphors and personification. #alternativeperspectives@BSMuscat
As part of our work on explaining our understanding of multiplication, we have been honing our communication skills and developing accurate use of vocabulary #resilience
We had an amazing field trip to the National Museum on Thursday. It gave us an incredible insight into our Prehistory unit. We made sketches, studied the artifacts, and asked juicy questions. #connectionfinding@PrincipalMuscat@BSMuscatPrimary
In Art and DT we have been learning about seasonality and researching the fruit and vegetables grown at different times in different countries. Then we created some veg boxes to reflect each season. Lovely work Year 5! @PrincipalMuscat@BSMuscatHeadPri@BSMuscatPrimary
We have been investigating food miles and discovering how far our food travels to reach us in Oman. We were surprised at where some of the foods in our cupboards have come from!
Year 5 have learned about the emergence of Brood X cicadas in the Eastern USA. Mary linked Science, English and Art & DT skills to create this interactive poster explaining the cicada's unique life-cycle. Well done Mary! @BSMuscatPrimary@PrincipalMuscat@BSMuscatHeadPri
The teachers are so proud of the effort and creativity the children have shown when making their pop-up book re-telling the story of Pandora's Box - especially impressive since they have been working from home this term! @PrincipalMuscat@BSMuscatHeadPri@BSMuscatPrimary
Last week the children in Year 5 were challenged to make a model falaj using materials they had a home. The children impressed us with their creativity in finding and using different materials! @BSMuscatPrimary
