P3a Home Learning Monday 30th November

Dear class, I hope you are all well and have enjoyed a safe and happy weekend. It is going to be very strange today for me to be in class without seeing and working with all of you. I have prepared a lovely surprise in the classroom and this will be here for you when you return, this won’t be long. We also have a naughty little visitor who’s come to stay and already he has been up to mischief. I will take photographs of his mischief making and share this with you on the blog every day.

In the meantime, I want you to keep learning and you can show your parents how clever you are by completing the work you would usually do in class but at home. Your completed work should be sent to me via email and Mrs Wilson will share my email with your parents, where I will mark your work and give you feedback as usual. I am so looking forward to receiving your work and hearing how you are getting on. If you need me for anything you are welcome to send me an email and I will also be in school all week so I am available for contact via the school office.

Right P3, we can do this! With warmest regards, have a happy day! Miss McClure

Ps, our class advent calendar is ready and waiting and we will catch up on the days when you come back.

Primary1 30th November 2020

Good morning everyone. I hope you are all well today. It’s quiet in Primary 1 this morning and I am missing all your smiley faces. You will be completing your tasks at home for the next wee while and I will add them to the Blog each morning.
Spelling words today are ‘go’ and ‘got.’ Please write each word 3 times, using the correct formations, making sure the ‘tails’ go down under and the ‘o’ starts at the top. You can then complete some of the activities from the Active Literacy homework booklet eg. using playdough, pasta, lego or buttons to make the words or write them in pencil then coloured pencil then pen. Can you write some simple sentences which contain the words? Have a go! Ask an adult to dictate these sentences for you and practice them throughout the week. “The big red car can go in the mud.” “He has got a fat rat in his den.”
Our new sound this week is ‘h.’ Can you think of four ‘h’ words and draw their picture? Have a look to see if there are any things around you. eg. hot, hen, hat, hop, hand. Practice the formation of the sound. It is a tall letter and should not look like an ‘n.’
Log in to Giglets and click on Baby Bear then complete the comprehension tasks. You all have your login cards at home.
Log in to Education City. You will see a yellow pencil on a blue background. If you click on here you will see activities to be completed. The third activity is a Maths activity which is practicing number bonds to 10. Use counters, pennies or something similar to count as you complete the task.
As an ICT task, practice logging on and off using your Education City password. You can also go into Busy Things (username dunlopteacher , Password Dunlop2020). Click on ‘upper primary’ scroll down to Technologies:ICT & Computing Science then click Tree Keys. This game is practice in finding keys on the keyboard.
I hope you all have a good day and enjoy your activities.

Numeracy Primary 2 Monday 30th November

The children have been learning about time. The focus has been on o’clock and half past. Last week the focus moved to digital time. Many children were able to show o’clock and half past digitally.

We have been discussing

  • how many seconds in a minute
  • minutes in an hour
  • days in a week/fortnight/month/year
  • hours in a day
  • the days of the week (names/order)
  • the months of the year (names/order/ how many)
  • Seasons

This week if you are in the larger maths group then your focus is now on using a simple calendar. Please see the image that is attatched to this post. Can you answer the questions about the information that is on the calendar

 

On which day does Jessica go swimming?

Who has a birthday on a Thursday?

What is different about the last hockey training session to the others?]

On what date is Jessica going to the cinema with her friends?

What time does Jessica’s piano lesson begin?

When is Owen’s birthday?

How many hockey training sessions are there before the hockey final?

Primary 2 Numeracy Monday 30th November

For numeracy we have been learning all about time. Our focus has been o’clock and half past. The children have been doing this very well and now the focus is on o’clock and half past in digital time.

If you are in the group of children who have been completing the workbook then the activities on this post are for you to complete.

You could go around your house and find things that have a digital time on them. You could draw pictures of them. If you have catalogues or magazines you could cut out any pictures of clocks that you can find.

Remember we have been discussing

  • how many seconds in a minute
  • minutes in an hour
  • days in a week/fortnight/month/year
  • hours in a day
  • the days of the week (names/order)
  • the months of the year (names/order/ how many)
  • Seasons

Primary 2 Monday 30th November

 

Good morning everyone

I hope you are all doing well today. Our classroom is very quiet today. I am already missing seeing you all today. I will be posting activities on here for you to complete at home for the next few days.

On a Monday morning we begin by changing the jobs in the classroom. Perhaps at home you would like to take responsibility for something in your home this week.

This morning we would usually be completing spelling. At the moment we have two spelling groups.

If you were learning ‘ee’ and ‘ch’ then your new phoneme is ‘oo’ and your tricky words are    by          only.

Below is a list of your phoneme words to try this week.

zoo

mood

fool

spoon

look

stool

cook

If you were  learning ‘ay’ and ‘ea’ previously then your new phoneme is ‘ow’ as in snow. This weeks tricky words are       out       now          new

low

grow

throw

follow

shallow

show

Remember to draw around your tricky words to see the shapes they make. We have been spending a lot of time on our handwriting. Remember to take your time.

You could complete your words on the computer, with bubble writing, play-dough or anything else you may have at home.

P7 Rosemary Thompson Speeches

Over the past month, Primary 7 have been preparing for their Rosemary Thompson speeches. The children were asked to prepare and then deliver a 4-6 minute speech on a topic of their choice in front of a panel of judges (Mrs Wilson and Mrs Nouillan). This speech was also live streamed to the Primary 6 class through Teams.

All children did an incredible job and we are very proud of all of them. Well done P7!!
