Good morning everyone, Hopefully most of you will have started filling in your food journals – if not you can start any day you wish as long as you try and do it for a whole week. Lower classes can ask their parents to help them out. Today I am posting a diagram of the eatwell plate which we have studied in class. For each food you have in your journal could you try and note which category it comes under. You could do this by underlining or writing in the appropriate colour as shown on the plate. How many can you get without checking the guide? Again pupils in lower classes will need some assistance from parents. How many of your 5 a day are you eating?

Once the school restarts we will be doing athletics and fitness in PE so could you please continue with your jumps and workouts. Thanks again, Mr Smith

Hi all,
It’s Mr Smith again. Today I’d like the primaries 1-3 to practise their standing long jump and primaries 4-7 to practise their standing triple jump. See cards below.
Remember to keep practising previous activities and workouts.

Hope you are all well,

Mr Smith

Today’s challenge is called ‘Socks in a Box’. One of my chores at home is to pair all the socks after they have been washed. It’s a terrible job, especially when there are lots of odd socks and ones which are similar but not quite the same. I cover the whole floor with them and just when I’m getting started Rory bounds in and rolls all over them before stealing some and running away looking for a chase!
I’m quite sure your parents will be glad as this challenge involves YOU pairing them! Good luck and stay safe,
Mr Smith

Hi everyone,

I hope you are all well and keeping up your fitness. Please remember to try all the wee activities and workouts I’ve been posting as often as you can, trying to beat your previous attempts and get your personal best. You could perhaps make/design a log book to note your results each day. If you find somethings too easy or too difficult you should adapt them to suit your own needs – you want to challenge yourself rather than just going through the motions.

Today I’m posting a wacky races activity which can be fun especially for lower down the school but can be easily adapted for older pupils (remember the bunny hops!) If you have nobody to race against ask someone to time you. Make it challenging,

We challenged Rory to a great big 6 mile walk to a place we call the hidden loch. He made it there and back and had great fun, although he was tired out when we got home,

Stay safe

Mr Smith
