HWB: MILD – Emotional Crayons

Morning Everyone,

I hope you are all enjoying our mini project on conflict with our featured story ‘The Day the Crayons Quit’.

After reading or listening to the story a few times we notice that the crayons are expressing their feelings to Duncan as to why they have quit and left Duncan.

Use the questions below and discuss the family members, everyone might have different answers as it is their opinion.

Can you describe what each crayon is feeling?

What words can you find in each letter that tell you their emotion?

Which crayon do they feel most sorry for, and why?

Which crayon seems happiest and why do they say this?

Which crayon would they most like to cheer up?

What could they do to make one of the crayons feel happier?

Which crayon is the angriest one and why?

What could Duncan do to calm this crayon down?

Use the sway below to go through some examples.

Magic Words – Spanish

Health and Wellbeing Grid 2 Task

Hi Everyone,

Hope you all had a FAB Easter break 🙂

Today I thought I would focus my blog post on a nice easy relaxing choice from our new grid since it launches today and you might just be getting to familiarise yourself with it.

I chose  the Health and Wellbeing task, this term we were going to be working cooperatively with Rev Will Stalder and the Methlick community to celebrate VE Day by creating artistic pieces of words related to VE Day. We decided as a staff to choose this as one of our home learning activities.

The Primary 7 word is Resolution luckily I randomly had a bucket of toy soldiers and thought I could display my words using that HOWEVER half way through I realised I wouldn’t have enough toy soldiers 🤔

Then I used some problem solving skills I made the first five letters of the word took a picture of it and then made the second 5 letters took a picture and merged them together using a Picture collage app.

I can’t wait to see what you all do for your class word.

Please share your ideas below and send any completed ones to your teacher.
