Good Morning Primary 7 🙂
I hope you are all well and had a lovely long weekend! This week the home learning will be posted daily – numeracy and literacy tasks will be there for you to work through. Remember you have a few things in your Home Learning Pack that you can work through if you wish – a maths textbook, a historical timelines activity that involves you researching different historical periods, a guided reading activity sheet and the home learning grid (which has websites and ideas on it).
Please remember just do what you can, there is absolutely no pressure to complete everything that is posted each day, some days you may do more and some days you may do less, it is what works best for you and your family.
When you get the chance can you please check your email, I sent out an email to our P7 group and have asked if you can send me a picture of yourselves from P1 🙂 Thank you to those who have sent in their pictures (they are very cute!). My email address is ddspaton810@glow.sch.uk if it is easier for someone at home to send me it.
Please continue to email me with any queries/questions you have or just to say hi, I do enjoy hearing from you all!                       Have a good day!  Mrs P 🙂
