This challenge may need some resources and time but it can be based around any theme. Read on to find out….
I have added it now so that people can gather items and be ready for the closing dates if you wish to enter.
Task – Both of these websites have Gardening competitions to design a shoebox or small garden at home. ‘One Seed Forward’ are the local group who we get our free seed potatoes from and Keep Scotland Beautiful is a National resource who run the Eco Schools award. Both tasks are similar but the Keep Scotland Beautiful one is more strict with items used so it may be possible to enter both with one entry but please read the guidelines.
One Seed Forward Local Shoebox Garden Competition
Last years winner was a pupil from Methlick for this competition (See web post) Here is her winning garden.
Keep Scotland Beautiful Pop-up garden from Home Competition 2020
Here are some examples from previous years.
Let us know if you have managed any gardening activities big or small. We know a few of you have been busy helping in the garden doing various things and good luck if you enter either of these competitions. Comment to let me know if you do or you think you might.
Best wishes Mrs Flockton and the Eco group.
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.
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?
The Crayons all come from the same box, they are all apart of a larger team. Just like you and your family we can all have different emotions but we should all still come together.
Follow the link below to make your own every crayon counts sign to share with family.
Hello everyone,
I hope that you all had a lovely weekend and you are now more settled into your Home Learning routine.
I didn’t practise as much piano throughout the holidays as I had wanted to but I am still making progress. Having my Sway and being able to see the difference between Day 1 and now Day 35 helps to keep me motivated to carry on.
Question – Can you tell me the name of the song that I am playing this week? Why do you think I chose to learn this specific song?
What was the best part about being back to Home Learning last week?
Hello,
Mrs Black, Mrs Still and Mrs Webster hope you have had a great Easter Break and are settling back into Home Learning,

Just wanted to say a BIG Thank You to all those that have tried out our Health and Wellbeing task. They are looking FAB!
Don’t worry if you haven’t had a chance to do one yet you still have another week to go.
Please send on your creative pieces of your work to your teacher so we can collect them all to create a Sway for you all to see .
Thanks
Miss Deans
This has helped me to focus on what is going well and worry a little bit less.
I have filmed some of my happy places to share with you.
Take a moment to look and listen.
I wonder what you might make happy lists about?
The weather was so lovely during the holidays that I went out for lots of long walks. On the way, I spotted many different kinds of wild flowers.
Click on the Sway below to find out more about this week’s Feel-Good Friday challenge …
Remember – write your answers in your Home Learning Journal. Don’t post them on the Blog, as everyone will be able to see them. Just leave a message to let me know how you got on. Good luck!
