LITERACY-

Select a spelling activity from the grid in your green folder. If you can’t find it, I have attached a picture of the grid below.
If you like, you can post a picture of your spell words on the class stream.

reading comprehension-

Please read the passage aloud to a grown up.
Read over the questions then read the passage again.

Use your literacy jotter, put the big date on the top line and then the title of the passage, Stanley.

Put the question number on the left hand side and answer each question, writing in full sentences. You do not have to copy down the question.

Remember to use a capital letter and full stop. Read over each answer to check it makes sense.

NUMERACY-

Please complete Wednesday Mental Maths in your numeracy jotter.  (See picture on Monday’s blog post)

Your instructions are to identify which numbers are odd and circle them. If it is a three digit number, you look at the last digit to work out if the number is odd or even. All numbers ending in 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 are odd.

For example- 215 the last digit is 5, which is an odd number, so 215 is odd.
276 the last digit is 6, 6 is even so 276 is an even number.

Odd and Even-

Please have a go at playing odd or even on the TopMarks website. The link is below.

Pyramids please complete home activity sheet 9. I have included a picture of the sheet. This is inside your numeracy workbook.

Cylinders and spheres please complete the worksheet attached- Colour Hearts.
1. if you have a printer you could print the sheet and complete.
2. If you don’t have a printer your or and adult, copy the hearts and calculations into your jotter then follow the instructions.

Colour the heart red if the answer is odd and purple if it is even.

If you do not have a purple and red pick two different colours. One for odd and a different colour for even.

Good morning everyone.

Thanks for all your hard work yesterday. Today’s learning is on Google Classroom but if you are unable to get on for any reason, I will outline the tasks below.

Primary 2 have been discussing memories. We have made our own memory box and today some boys and girls brought in something that represents a happy memory.

Amie brought in books from when she was a baby. They make her happy as she remembers mummy and daddy reading to her.

Finn brought in a photo of him as a baby and a toy. The toy makes him happy as he remembers the first time he cuddled it.

Lucy brought a shell which reminds her of all the happy times she has spent in Crail.

Ethan brought in photographs from a holiday meeting Mickey Mouse. He still smiles thinking about it.

Emaline brought in a sticker that reminds her of a happy tea party she had with her sister.

Isla brought in teddy monkey. This toy makes her happy as her gran gave her it and she loves cuddling her.

Brayden brought Charlie the teddy who makes him happy because he is so soft and reminds him of when he was younger.

Nathan brought in a little dinosaur which makes him happy as it was the first time he was at a museum. Nathan shared his big brother held him for the first time at the museum. What a happy memory!

Mason brought in toys he bought from his pocket money. They make him happy as he was proud to buy himself something.

Lucas shared his happy memory, photos from his mum and dads wedding. It makes him happy as he loves weddings and his mum and dad!

Primary two have been exploring measure. Pupils were given a design challenge to build a 3D model of the new Cross Arthurlie nursery using a construction material of their choice. They had to follow a design brief, the model was to be longer than 30cm but less than 1m and it had to be taller than 20cm.

Pupils had lots of fun working with one another. Throughout this activity they were developing their skills in cooperation, problem solving and measuring.
