Please find below a selection of suggested learning activities for your child to access at home should they need to self-isolate or stay at home due to being unwell. If your child is too unwell to do any work while at home there is no pressure to complete the tasks. These are here to access as you wish. Please adapt and adjust according to your individual child. You will find a 2 week grid with activity ideas for home learning and a list of online resources and websites for literacy, numeracy and other curricular areas.
Your child already has a copy of their ‘MyMaths’ and ‘Giglets’ logins and passwords at home, however if your child has forgotten theirs please contact Miss White at emma.white@eastayrshire.org.uk
If there are any difficulties or you need any support with the activities then please do not hesitate to contact us.

P7 – John Muir Award
This week P7 took a trip down to the Millennium Woods to collect a wide variety of leaves. Once we returned to school we used an identification key to categorise our leaves. We then used EXCEL to create graphs displaying the number of each type.
Lastly, we created autumn land art inspired by Andy Goldsworthy. Take a look at some of our creations and a new friend the P7s found and named Dobbie.
Kandinsky Art

John Muir Award – Day 2
Today we had another adventure in the Millennium Woods, and the rain even stayed off!
Today we collected a variety of different leaves and once back in class we organised them into groups and used a key to help identify the tree that they belonged to. Our next step is to use Microsoft Excel to complete graphs to collate our information.
In teams we used the leaves to create art work inspired by Andy Goldsworthy. I am sure will agree they are fantastic!
Remembrance Day Poppies
Primary 6 and 7 were asked by the minister to contribute to the village poppy display by painting rocks with the names of all those who lost their lives fighting in World War 1 and World War 2. We then laid the stones around the war memorial.
We also created mix media Poppy art.
