Day: April 20, 2021

Hi. Caspian here.

Mark was my home teacher today as Mum had an operation. She’s home now and said I can bake bread tomorrow and we can all  go for a country walk to look at the changes in the season. I had a call with Feis Rois today. I also had some maths and spelling. In literacy I had to make a poem about an unusual pet and to be as imaginative as I fancied. Here it is:

Once, there was a pie,

Its smell made you die.

Because it was no apple pie.

It was a fly.

It had never bathed, sly.

He is my pet,

He says his name is Kev.

We ran through the streets,

And fell in feet.

They smelled like peat.

We both drowned,

But we made it loud.

Please leave how you thought of it in the comments.

Bye!

                                                       Hello everyone, 

Today I have been doing some maths, nots and crosses, and literacy.

My Literacy was to do a poster to tell people not to litter.

I had a lot of fun doing nots and crosses. My maths was not bad. 

I tried to join my class call but it wouldnt connect and it made me sad. Can I have a call tomorrow please?

Mama says we can have a baking day tomorrow as I want to make buns and my brother wants to make more bread.

Mama had an operation today. she is really sore and has six stiches.😢 I helped her feed our birds when she came home.

Goodbye for now smile every day be happy have fun Bye!!

 

Pupils across the school have been looking at plants this week.

Studying the parts of plants and the best way to do that is to get out and look at real plants.

P6/7 have been digging up dandelions to draw, study and then dissect. They have taped down and labelled all the parts of the dandelion plant.

You have to dig deep as the dandelion has got a very long and strong tap root.

Tomorrow we are going to look at different flowers to see if we can spot the female and male parts that are needed for reproducing new plants.

We’ll try and get some pictures up on the blog for you to see.

Tanith and Caspian we need to tell you about the new teachers we have in school…

Mrs Renaud is in on a Thursday and Friday. This term she is working on Storytelling and Drama for Big Thursday. She will be working in the P1-3 on a Friday too.

Mr Sanderson has come to Holywood to learn all about teaching so Miss Stapleton and I are having to be on our very best teacher behaviour. And we are having to look very organised so that Mr Sanderson picks up our very best teaching habits only!!

It is tricky to get to know people when they are behind masks so we have started our Wake Up Shake Up in the playground.

Looking forward to seeing you guys very soon!
