Well here we are at the last day of term. What a crazy few months its been. Its not been the term 3 and 4 anyone could have expected. Lets look forward positively to a new school year and all that will bring. I will miss you all so much. I have loved being your teacher for the last 2 years and you will always hold a special place in my heart. It will be very strange seeing you walk into another teacher’s room for a bit! You are an amazing bunch and I can’t wait to watch you continue to shine like the stars you are. See you soon!

No new work this week as last week and this week we are back in St Ninian’s getting ready for  a new school year.

Catch up with any of the activities from previous weeks that you haven’t got to if you want.

Go on Sumdog.

Have a great week x

Good morning primary 4! I hope you are all ok! As usual I’ve given you a list of activities that you can have a go at. Remember there is no expectation that you do it all .

This week I’d like Get Spelling children to continue with their Red or Blue booklet. Select 10 words to be your spelling focus and practice them in any way you like. Choose 5 words and create 5 Super Sentences using VCOP to show you know how to use the word correctly. At the end of the week get someone to give you a spelling check.

RWI children do the same with your Red Words and remember your daily lesson on YouTube.

This week I’d like you to do a reading challenge for a book or story that you have read over the past few months. Here are a few ideas. Remember that I need to know the title of your story and the author name. How about designing a new front cover?

1. Pick a character and tell me all about them; their personality, their feelings, appearance, the reason for their actions.
2. Write a different ending.
3. Write a short description of the story so that someone who has never read it learns the storyline.
4. Review your story- did you enjoy it? Why? Why not?

This week we will continue to focus on time work. Scroll back to last week’s active maths and links as these are still useful skills to develop. It’s helpful to get a mix of written, active and game based learning.  I’ve posted a mix of time written activities. As always you do what fits in with your daily plans- there is no expectation you do it all. Choose your level and do your best.

Good morning boys and girls, just because we aren’t in school doesn’t mean we won’t have our Sports Day. I’ve attached videos explaining the events that you can take part in. These events can be done inside, in your garden or in the park. I’ve attached a list of equipment you can use but don’t worry if you don’t have some just use whatever you have. Have fun and you can send your pictures/videos to your teacher and Mrs MacPhail on twitter!
