Hello again P1-4,<\/p>\n

Thank you to the Shirrans for sending in these lovely photos- I can see you are having fun in the snow. That’s a great snowflake picture too! We love to see what you\u2019re getting up to. \u2744\ufe0f<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And great photos from Oscar this morning, digging a snow tunnel in the field.<\/p>\n

Mrs McKnight is \u2018in class\u2019 today and has asked that you have a look at the learning activities below.<\/p>\n

Literacy<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Think of an animal that lives in a cold or snowy place.\u00a0 Draw a picture of the animal and write around the outside things it has to help it to survive the cold (e.g thick, warm fur).\u00a0 Perhaps an adult could help you to research the animal online or in a book?<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Adjectives are describing words.\u00a0 How many adjectives can you think of to describe today\u2019s weather?\u00a0 Make a list to share with me when we are back in school.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Numeracy<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Log into Sumdog and continue practicing your maths skills.<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Measure the snow, in the same place somewhere in your garden at different times during the day.\u00a0 Is the snow staying at the same depth or is it changing.\u00a0 Can you make a chart to record your results?<\/p>\n

Here is an example of how to record your data:<\/p>\n

Depth of snow on the patio<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Time of measuring<\/td>\nMeasurement in cm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
10am<\/td>\n32cm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
11am<\/td>\n28cm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
12pm<\/td>\n26cm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
1pm etc\u2026<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

P3\/4 \u2013 can you work out the difference in snow depth between your first and last measurement?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

HWB<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Make up a dance routine to your favourite song.<\/p>\n

\u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Create a gymnastics routine using some of the balances, jumps, rolls and travelling movements we worked on last term.<\/p>\n

Have a great day,<\/p>\n
