Home schooling

Hello, today I started with reading comprehension. I did one about Anne Frank and John Lennon. Then I did maths, in my maths I did tidying up expressions and I did the fish problem but my mum had to help me. After that I went on epic. I think in a while my mum and me are going on a walk.  Hope you’ve had a good day bye.  By Orla.

Learning in the childcare hub today.

Lots of learning going on today in the childcare hub. We really enjoyed Mrs Fraser’s quiz at the end of the day- you should all try it at home! Carlay, Miller and James had a great time catching up with their class on their Teams meeting. Hope you all have a good weekend!

Big Blog.

Hello Team Holywood! I hope you are all doing well.

Today l did some reading on Epic. I read “ The Sisters Grimm, The Unusual Suspects”, and “ The Dark Lord Clementine”. I also made a snowflake out of beads and pipe cleaners.  On Wednesday l learnt about two arctic explorers one of them was, Ann Bancroft and the other was Rosie Stancer. Here is some information about them.

Rosie Stancer

  • Rosie has traveled to North Pole and the South Pole.
  • Later on she tried  to travel to the North Pole solo but failed.
  • On one of her attempts she needed to amputate two of her toes to survive.
  • Rosie is 61 years old now.
  • Rosie was born in Scotland.

 

Ann Bancroft

  • Ann was the first women to ski and dog sledge solo across the Arctic  without refilling supplies once!
  • She was born in the United States Of America.
  • She is now 73 years old.
  • Ann, like Rosie, traveled to the South Pole.

l also set up an arctic theme made out of Lego it was great fun. I liked learning about the arctic and can’t wait to do some more next week.

My Arctic adventure!!!

Hello team Holywood!

Yesterday I done an Arctic set up with my Lego. I got out my Arctic mission snowcat and I borrowed some of my sisters Arctic mission Lego which was a sled with a box in the back of the sled. The arctic set up is really cool. Mummy helped me set it up. I used the white  pillows from our white sofa for the snow. I could not put the picture up on the blog, sorry.

Today I made some snowflakes from pipe cleaners as part of the maths challenge. There is a picture below, what do you think?

This week has been really good so far and everyone’s blogs are very very good. I hope that everyone is doing well.

bye bye, M.

Mythology and other work.

Hello everyone! Cleo here.

I’ve been doing more maths. I did spicy Five-a-day again and I completed them in 5 minutes. 😀 I also simplified the medium difficulty algebra. It took me a bit longer but I manged to complete it all correctly.

I drew a Ryu (Japanese dragon) and Mum asked me to find out some facts about them.

The Japanese dragon also known as the Ryu or Tatsu is a mythical animal from Japan. Ryuu or Ryu stands for dragon or imperial in Japanese. The Ryu looks a bit like a sea serpent, but it flies instead of swimming. The Ryu is related to the Chinese long and Korean Yong. Some Ryu’s can hide in water, take human form, form clouds, turn into water, change colour to camouflage into their surroundings and they can glow in the dark. It’s quite amazing! The differences between the Korean dragon, Chinese dragon and the Japanese dragon is the Chinese dragon has five claws while Korean dragons have four and the Japanese dragon have three.

We discussed kindness as a family and looked at the boards from the underground. We came up with  actions and words to show kindness towards other people. I then made a poster of things that make me smile and hopefully other people smile with phrases to spread kindness.

I hope you all had a great day and remember to smile at someone each day because smiling is contagious!
