Leave a comment

Time for the final addition to our Photography or Drawing activity.

So far we have looked at our ambitions and our own personal qualities and skills. Much like our Health Heroes, they didn’t reach their ambition on their own they needed support.

That is our focus today…

Follow the Sway below to learn about our final addition to the project.

When you are ready you can follow the writing task, there are sentence starters provided if you would like.

Remember to share with your teachers on Seesaw, Email or comment on the blog.

MILD: LITERACY & HWB : Sky High #2

Leave a comment

Yesterday we talked about our ambitions and dreams something we could reach for in the sky.

Today we are going to look at the skills and qualities we have ourselves to help us reach that target. Have these discussions while you are taking the time to look at the sky.

To reach the ambition in the sky, we are going to need wings, your wings are made of words that the meaning relates to you.

Follow the steps below in the sway to complete part 2.

Remember this can be a drawing activity too and also send in your work to your teacher through seesaw or email.

MILD: Literacy & HWB : Sky High

Leave a comment

This week’s sky journal is going to focus on ambition. Thinking about our dreams and big goals and where we want to go. We can take great inspiration from our health heroes thinking about what they have achieved after leaving Methlick.

You could do the same!

The sky seems to always be quite far away, something people will rarely be able to touch. We are all under the same sky and we all have big hopes and dreams.

I want you to think about what is one of your big dreams what would you like to do or be when you are older. It could be a small goal or a big dream.

Over this week we are going to be doing a photography task looking at how we can… REACH FOR THE SKY… and aim …SKY HIGH…

Our first post has focused on talking about our big dreams, so I want you to take a picture of the sky. On whatever device you are taking it I would like you to edit it. As we are going to add some writing, you can type or use the brush and I would like you to put somewhere high in sky that big or small ambition you are thinking about. I have put up a few examples, one which I have now and one from when I was little.

You could also complete this task doing a hand drawn picture of the sky writing in your goal at the top, or cut out letter from a magazine or newspaper and stick them to the top.

Although this is a simple task today you can have a great discussion with family talking about what your big dreams are and how you can …REACH FOR THE SKY…

Here is my sway on my Sky journal writing.

Next time we will add the next part, thinking about how we get there. Because, in the words of my favourite Disney princess ‘Tiana’ “The only way to get what you want in this world is through Hard Work” and we will talk more about hard work next time.

HWB – Under the same sky

2 Comments

 

I shared this book with you on Monday.

I have added some more information to the book about the group of people, who live under the same sky as you, who were very happy to take a photo of the sky to share with you.

I think that was very kind. 

The photographs were taken by my friends  between 10am and 12noon at the weekend (16th/17th May)

  1. America, New York
  2. Canada, Alberta
  3. France, Toulouse
  4. Holland, 
  5. Russia, Moscow
  6. Russia, Svetlogorsk
  7. Scotland, Dundee
  8. Scotland, Oldmeldrum
  9. Scotland, The Isle of Lewis

I wonder if you can work out where each photo has been taken.

I have put some of the originals back in because I cropped them as it would have been too obvious. I wonder if you can find out the time difference between Scotland and there?

Maybe you could ask someone you are missing to send you a photograph of the sky and you could send one to them and you could talk about what you both see.

Mild Literacy and HWB – Under The Same Sky

2 Comments

It is lovely to think that we are all under the same sky even though we may be far away from those we care about and miss.

Use a calendar and clock to check the date and time.

Inside and outside look up to the sky!

Talk about what you see:

  • colours, shapes, movements, position of the sun (never look directly at the sun)

Think and wonder why you:

  • feel, hear, smell and possibly even taste something!

Talk about what you see think and wonder in this book.

Write lists of describing words, adjectives to use when you write about the sky.

Can you collect some photographs of the sky between 10 o’clock and 12 noon and share with your teacher?
