Here is a quick literacy task for anyone who has finished their Leavers Poem.
The podcast on this website contains some tongue twisters to get your tongue in shape before reading aloud. Listen and join in!
Saying ‘A pale pink proud peacock pompously preened its pretty plumage’ quickly is pretty tricky!
Afterwards, practise reading something aloud or even come up with your own tongue twisters and try them out on people at home.
Today I am setting you a decimal division chilli challenge. You can choose whatever task you feel most comfortable with but remember it is always good to challenge yourself. You can do one, two or three of the tasks, it is up to you!
I have attached a video to help you with the HOT chilli challenge task. However, so this task doesn’t take too long I would only add a maximum of 2 zeros after the decimal point when calculating your remainders.
If you are finished, try this try this Memory Maths game to speed up your mental maths.

Use these websites and games to practise your typing skills. You can choose the difficulty level. This activity should also really help if you have been typing your answers at home.

Good morning Primary 7!
I hope you have had a great holiday and have been enjoying this glorious weather!
I have started working on the Yearbook and thanks to our hard working Yearbook Committee I don’t have much to do. However, there are some bits that need to come from you! Each year four ‘leavers poems’ are selected to be published in the Yearbook. This is a poem about your time at Cross Arthurlie and moving onto High School. I will attach some poems from previous years for inspiration and also a website with videos about different types of poems. It can be any type of poem and it doesn’t need to rhyme. The only requirement is that it is about your time at Cross Arthurlie.
I want you to try your best so I will give you today and tomorrow to work on this (it is due at 3pm on Tuesday the 21st.) Submit your poem however you like, you can write it in the comments below or write it down, take a picture and attach it if that is easier.

Morning Primary 7! Today is straight forward mutilation of decimal numbers. We practise this often during mental maths but if you need a reminder about what to do with the decimal have a look at the top of the page or the video I have attached for help.
This is your last task for two weeks since we stop today for the Easter holidays!
Read the PowerPoint to remind you of the key events in the Easter story. Next complete the True/False statements in your jotter. If you have time why not try the bumper Easter word search.
Happy Holidays!
Open up the image Summer Sunset from below and use your inference skills to answer the questions about the picture. Remember when we are inferring we are using our own knowledge of the world combined with what we can see or what we are told to help us reach a conclusion. Next tackle the vocabulary associated with the Summer Sunset picture by writing definitions for each of the words. If you do not have a dictionary at home then use an online one.
Today’s Maths task is addition and subtraction of whole numbers. Some of the questions ask you to perform the calculation mentally and others require you to do working. Please read all the instructions carefully.
Today we are revising the weather in French. Work through the presentation and try the quizzes. Don’t worry if you do not remember all the weather phrases, just use the picture clues to help you. Next complete the worksheets. These can be copied into your lined jotter if you do not have access to a printer.
