I just wanted to do a wee update on some resources you could use/access at home.
MyMaths Logins
Just to let you know that the school has signed up for a resource called MyMaths. It is an online resource which has lessons, resources and ideas. Everyone has an individual username and password. If you would like to access this resource, please contact Mrs Davidson st-pius@dundeecity.gov.uk with your child’s name and class included in the email. She will get the information sent out to you as soon as possible.
Find Read Write Inc appropriate books through search engine on Oxford Owl.
Red Words PP for P1s and P2s
Red Words are words that cannot be sounded out. Children must learn these off by heart. This PP has the red words for all Read Write Inc Groups. The blank pages after words show the differences in difficulty. These are words you can practise spelling together. They will also be in the Ditties and RWI books.
Good Morning Everyone 🙂 It is a new week! Just to let you know I will be uploading the same resources on to our blog and the class Teams. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to post a comment or Tweet the School account and I will reply as soon as I can.
I hope everyone is well and staying safe.
Here is the Home Learning Grid for this week. There are lots of different activities to choose from. I don’t expect you to do them all – pick and choose at least one or two every day. I know that you will be learning lots of important skills and life lessons at home with your families.
Here are some additional resources for the week. Once again, please pick and choose which resources to use. You do not need to use them all. If you have any difficulty accessing or downloading anything, please let me know. I’m here to help! 🙂

This is tricky one. HINT: Try grouping the flowers together… 3 + 5 + 3+10 =
If you are having difficulty accessing our Teams page, I have previously done a blog on how to access it. I can also give you your child’s login details if you don’t have these.
I will also post daily learning on the blog for keeping everyone up to date.

PE
9am -9:30am Joe Wickes daily workouts on YouTube.
Literacy
Keep reading daily or listening to stories. If you are reading a book to your child, ask lots of questions about characters and events in the book to make sure they are listening ☺️ This will also develop key comprehension skills. Reading can consist of books, instructions, comics, magazines or listening to audio books online. YouTube have lots of selections. Rainbow fish is one of my favourites!
Numeracy and Maths
Today’s Number Talk Challenge:
Try to use at least 6 strategies! Keep persevering – you can do it 😀
Measurement and Estimation
Find 10 objects in your house.
Estimate first how long you think it might be.
Measure object using ruler, measuring tape or other resources (2 spoons, 10 grapes or 3 cereal bars).
I hope you all had a lovely Easter holiday given the circumstances. It still feels strange to be typing this blog post instead of getting ready to see all the children again. I hope you’re all well and staying safe.
I have updated the Home Learning Grid with some new ideas/activities for the weeks ahead.
This can also be found in the ‘Files’ section on Microsoft Teams. If you look in the different folders you will also find different activities to try out. There is a folder labelled Powerpoints with some resources inside it too.
If you have any questions or queries, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me via comments in this blog, Twitter or Teams.
It’s just such a weird time but we’ll get through it together 🙂
Please find in the blog post resources/activities which can be completed at home during this unsettling time. Our blog will be updated regularly with additional activities and links to resources.
All children have Sumdog logins. An information letter was sent home on Monday 16th March to inform parents of children’s username and password.
