Happy Friday Everyone,
Have you had a go at this weeks community challenge yet?
Not to worry you still have time to bust a move or two and send it to your teacher.
I thought i’d help you with some suggestions of dance moves:
Want to keep learning and dancing away, how about you try out our Dance Comprehension work where you watch a range of dances and answer questions on them, click below to carry out this fun activity.
I hope that you have enjoyed your first week of Expressive Arts fortnight. This week, I have read chapter 1 of J.K. Rowling’s new book , ‘The Ickabog’. Have you managed to read the first chapter too?

Good morning everyone
If your child has a Sumdog account, they will be able to play with Mr Reid and Miss Deans between 12pm – 1pm today.
Mr Reid will be playing – High Rise
Miss Deans will be playing – Animals
Each game will start on a 5 minute interval, meaning that the first game will start at 12pm, then 12.05pm, 12.10pm etc.
When selecting ‘Who do you want to play against?’ – Select ‘Class’.
We have added every teacher to each class, so we should all be able to play together!
We look forward to playing Sumdog with you all.
Hold Still, a portrait of our nation in 2020, is an ambitious community project to create a unique photographic portrait which captures the spirit, mood, hopes, fears and feelings of the nation as we continue to deal with isolation and uneasy times.
The Duchess and the National Portrait Gallery invite you to submit your own photographic portrait, taken during these extraordinary times, which responds to one of the following themes:
You can find more information at : Hold Still
We would really love for you all to give this a go whether you decide to submit it or not you can always share this with your teacher.
I’ve teamed up with a friend of mine who is a photographer in her spare time, she has very kindly created a powerpoint with some helpful tips to help support and develop your photography skills.

Have you heard that J.K. Rowling has recently released a new story titled ‘The Ickabog’? It is free and will be published online throughout the coming months.
Instead of us all reading different books, I thought it would be lovely if we read this new story together. Each week, we will read a new chapter, discuss the story so far and complete activities. Activities will be posted on a Monday and we will discuss our responses on a Friday.
J.K. Rowling has also challenged children to create illustrations for the book that will be published later in the year. More information on this competition can be found at – https://bit.ly/2zzey5x

Let’s take a virtual tour of Aberdeen Art Gallery – https://bit.ly/2AR37X5
With a duration of 2h30 minutes, we highly recommend that you view the tour throughout the week. If you prefer, focus on a specific gallery (Sculpture Court, Collecting Art etc).
Throughout week 1, we are going to focus on identifying our favourite piece of art within the gallery, sharing our thoughts/opinions and researching the artist.
Click on the Sway below to see everything you will need to complete this activity. An example has also been provided. Good luck and remember to share your work with your class teacher.

Hello Everyone, Happy Thursday.
We would love to hear if any of you have been practising your FIrst Aid skills from looking at Mr Reid’s post last week or if you have done this independently.
I thought , who better to tell us about First Aid than one of our PSA’s; Mrs Webster.
Please have a look at her poster information below that she has created to help you remember about first aid and their role in the playground.
