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.

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!
Good morning, everyone!
Welcome back to the Blog. It seems very strange not to be taking in the lines as usual on the first day of term. I also miss hearing your holiday news, but you can leave a message here or on Seesaw to let me know what you’ve been up to (or write it in your journal).
Anyway, I hope you had a lovely break enjoying the sunshine over the holidays and are all ready for some more learning activities in Term 4.
To kick-start the term, I have a Literacy challenge for you. You may already have seen that one of the reading tasks in this week’s Spicy Literacy Grid involves finding different words in your reading book that the author uses instead of ‘said’.
Click on my Sway to find out more …
P.S. House points will be awarded to the pupil with the highest total (I will have to verify this once we’re back at school)!
P.P.S. Maybe some of the teachers/parents would like to have a go at this as well?
Here’s another Easter Literacy challenge for everyone. How many words you can make from ‘HAPPY EASTER’?
Read the instructions in the Sway below, and challenge other family members to take part. I’d recommend doing this over a number of days so that you can keep adding to your total.
Don’t forget to write the list of words in your Learning Journals, and leave a comment for me here, to let me know how many you have managed to find. I’m going to give it a go and I challenge all the teachers and Mrs Fraser to take part as well!
There are different rules for Mild, Spicy and Hot, so click on the Sway to find out more.
Good morning everyone. Are you all looking forward to the Easter holidays? Hopefully the weather will stay good so that you can get into the garden for some outdoor learning.
I’ve changed the name of my Friday challenge, as I thought ‘Feel-Good Friday’ sounded better than ‘Crafty Friday’, so that’s what it will be called from now on.
Mrs Flockton’s ‘Design a Garden’ challenge made me think about an activity that I used to enjoy doing as a child, and I thought you might like to try it too.

I hope you enjoy the activity. Remember to take a photo of your creation and either email it to me or stick it in your Learning Journal.
Have a lovely break and I’ll be back with more fun challenges for you to try after the holidays.
Happy Easter!
P4 have been enjoying playing mental maths games on the Digipuzzle website – Pacman is one of their favourites. Today I found a new Pacman game to play – Easter Words.
Have a look at the Sway to see some of my suggestions for some other games you could play. You’ll also find links to the website there.
I hope you have fun trying some of them. Let me know which ones you’ve tried by leaving a comment on the blog. 🙂
Hello everyone. I hope you all had a lovely weekend and are going to try out some more of the grid activities this week.
Before the school closed, P4 were keen to have a ‘Word of the Week’, challenge. I thought some of the other classes might like to give it a go too, so here it is.
Click on the Sway to find out what to do.
I wonder if anyone in P6/5 can remember what this week’s word means? 🙂
Today I thought I’d attempt a HOT challenge from the Literacy grid, as I know a few of you have done this already.
With poetry, remember that ‘less is more’, so choose your words carefully and remember to paint a picture in the reader’s mind.
Drifting slowly down
Like pink confetti falling –
Cherry blossom tree.
Trees scrape the night sky,
Bare branches clutching at stars.
The storm is coming.
And now a silly one –
Stretching and yawning,
The world’s laziest cat wakes –
“Time for my tea, Mum!”
Hope you’ll have a go too! 🙂
