Hello Primary 1 : ),
I hope you are all well and enjoyed a weekend in the beautiful sunshine?! I have loved speaking to your adults on the phone over the last few weeks and hearing all the lovely things you have been doing.
Today is the 1st day of June and we are heading into your final 4 weeks of Primary 1. As always, if you can try your best to do at least some of the activities on the table below, that would be great!
Missing you all.
Mrs Keen

Hello everyone,
I hope you all had a lovely weekend with your families. I can’t believe we are in June already. I am just checking in with you to give you your Home Learning Activities for this week. Remember to just do what you can as these are only suggestions to help you. The most important thing is to stay safe and well. I miss you all.
Take care.
Mrs McLachlan
Literacy
P2 and P3 – Look at your Active Literacy sounds sheet and practise the new words with the ‘i-e’ spelling. Your words for this week are side, white, smile, hide and shine. This is a bit different this week because the two letters are not together there is a letter in the middle of them. Practise writing the words for this spelling in your laminated Elkonin Boxes in your pack. Write 3 sentences using some of your new words. I have put a link below for Geraldine the Giraffe for you to watch to help with your new spelling pattern.

Bug Club – Reading
Log on to Bug Club and read 2 of your books. Ask an adult to help with any tricky words and see if you can find any of your new spelling words in your book.
Writing
For writing this week I thought we could write a letter and send it to someone you are missing. It might be a family member or a special friend. We have written letters in school before. You could either write it on a piece of paper, remember to start your letter with ‘Dear’ or you could use a template below that the Royal Mail have made to help us keep in contact with loved ones. They are all lovely Sending Big Hugs sheets. Have a look and see what one you would like to use. You might even want to use more than one. You could then post it with the help of an adult to that special person. I have shared the link below to help you access the Big Hugs Activities and I have put an image you could print as well.
Numeracy
P2 – This week Primary 2 are working on Addition to 20. I have put in a link for you to print a sheet with calculations up to 20. There is a number line attached to help you if you need it. If you can’t print the sheet you can still view it and you could copy the sums.
P3 – This week Primary 3 are working on word problems again and this week it is using your knowledge of the 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10 times tables to help you. If you are unsure of any of these times tables you could practise writing it out on a sheet of paper with an adult and then use your answers to help you. Click on the link below to see the sheet.
P2 and P3 – We are going to be completing another activity using tally marks. This activity shows you how many tally marks you write for each number. This is a challenge for you. Click on the link below to print the sheet or you can just view it.
P2 and P3 – Practise odd and even numbers on the Coconut Game on Topmarks. See how high you can go. The link is below.

Arts and Crafts – A nice art activity you could try this week is to make a hot air balloon out of paper and once you have finished it you could either hang it up at a window in your house or outside on a tree or bush. All you need is paper, string and a carboard tube. I have attached a picture below to help you.
Stem – I have attached the 30 Day Lego Challenge Grid again. Try 2 different challenges this week if you have lego at home. If you don’t have lego you can use any construction materials you have.
Health and Wellbeing/Time – Use a watch or a timer to work out how long your daily walk takes. Do the same route again another day and time it and notice how long your walk takes this time. Is it faster or slower?
Music – Mrs Hill has prepared some activities for you.

Hi Everyone,
I’ve outlined some ideas for learning activities to complete at home for this week. I’ve set them out in a different format, I hope this is maybe easier to read and interact with. Click on the link below for either Primary 1 tasks or Primary 2 tasks. I hope you’re all staying safe and well. I continue to miss you all so much! I can’t wait to see you all again.

Hello Primary 3/4, I hope you and your families are all okay and enjoyed the long weekend. I really miss seeing you all each day at school. Please find below this week’s tasks for you to try and work on. This would have been a “3 day week” if you were in school so just do what you can and try your best.
Literacy and English
1) This weeks phonic sound is “wh” and your words to practice reading and spelling are: what, wheel, whisk, when, why, whisper and whiskers. If you want to challenge yourself further, try to think of 5 different wh words. This week, please choose one of the spelling activities below to practice your spelling.
2) Aim to spend around 20-25 minutes on Bug Club. You could split this into 2 shorter sessions of 10 minutes if you wish. I have made sure that you all have books allocated. Remember to check for any teacher feedback too.
3) Continue to work on your minibeast research task from last week. Remember, you are to decide which minibeast you find out about and how you present your findings. Aim to include: A title, a picture/diagram, at least 5 facts about the minibeast.
Here is a reminder of last week’s video to help you:

Numeracy & Maths
4) Go on sumdog and complete the challenge questions focused on using a calendar. When you log in and go to play a game, the calendar questions will come up first. Last week’s questions on number words are still there if you have not completed them yet.
5) Practice calculations online using the mental maths train game. Please use the link below to practice different calculations. The good thing about this game is that you can choose to focus on addition, subtraction, multiplication or division. Once you’ve chosen, you can then choose which skill to work on.

6) Practice partitioning 3 digit numbers. Think about how these numbers are made – of hundreds, tens and units. For example 482 = 400 + 80 + 2 or 738 = 700 + 30 + 8.
Use the sheet below to help you. You may write your answers into your home learning jotter.
If you feel ready for a challenge, try the sheet below. This time you have to think of different ways of partitioning the same 3 digit number.
All My Other Learning
7) Minibeast Art – create a piece of art related to our learning on minibeasts. For example, this could be a drawing, a painting, a model, a mask, a collage or any other ideas you have. Here are some ideas to help you get thinking!
8) STEM Challenges – take a look at the STEM challenges below and have a go at any that particularly interest you and your family.
9) Mrs Hill has prepared some tasks for you too:
