We will be learning about Scotland this week as part of our Rabbie Burns celebrations. Our dinosaur topic will resume next week.
We will be having a Scottish themed maths day on Wednesday. This means that reading will only be heard once this week. Reading books will still be sent home on Wednesday – please see the ‘reading tips’ post that was posted last week.
- Please try bringing in something small and Scottish for our Scottish touch table. The children should come home with some ideas. Please send all items to school by Wednesday at the latest.
- Help your child to discover their favourite Scottish word. They could ask Grandparents, friends, football coaches etc for ideas if you are not familiar with the lovely Scottish dialect. Please get your child to write this down with the meaning and bring it to school on Friday. We will be making a wall display of all of our favourite Scottish words.
- Try enjoying some Scottish songs together. We will be learning three craws – you can listen to it by clicking here.
Additional homework
- New sounds and new words.
- Reading homework – please see diaries
- Optional: find out more about Katie Morag by exploring the CBeebies website. We will be writing imaginative stories about Katie Morag on Tuesday. We will be comparing how her island is different from Cults. Click here to access the website.
