Tuesday 24th March P5 work

Hi everyone,

I hope you are all  keeping well?!

The work that you will receive will sometimes be set by myself, but it may also be set by one of the other P5 teachers.  All of P5 will receive the same daily activities so quite often this will just be revision.

Yesterday was our first day of working from home and lots of you have managed to send me a message on Seesaw with work that you have completed.   I have been very impressed by what you have all done so far but please remember this work is for you to work through or not work through!

You may find that someone at home has life skills they want you to complete instead of the work on our blog and that’s great because that is learning too!

I would much rather be speaking to you all in class but for just now we just need to try our best with this. I hope all of you enjoy learning in a different way for the next few weeks and hopefully I will see you all soon back in class.

Take care

Mrs McArthur 🙂

Home Learning Information

From today, home learning activities will be assigned daily via Seesaw and this class blog.

This will consist of Numeracy, Literacy and one ‘other’ task e.g. HWB, RME, Social Studies, Expressive Arts, Technology or Science activity.

Your weekly spelling rule will be revision from a previous week.

Please feel under no obligation to complete this work.  It is there for you to complete as much or as little as you choose and ultimately, your health and wellbeing is the most important thing!

As well as academic learning I appreciate the importance of daily physical activity. Each day, you may like to participate in Joe Wicks or the Super Movers live PE lessons from 9am.  There are also lots of other lessons, so feel free to enjoy some active learning at other times during the day too. These can be found by following the links below–

If you wish to upload any of the homework activities for me to see on Seesaw, then that would be great! The settings have been altered so that only teachers can see your work and responses.

I look forward to welcoming you back to Kirkhill with open arms, but until then, stay safe, stay happy and keep well!

Dogs Trust Visit

Gemma from the Dogs Trust visited our classroom today. We learned some very interesting information….

Hazel- You are not supposed to give your dog human food.

Alex – If you give a dog something that it’s not supposed to have, it will get use to it.

Joseph – Dogs like Jack Russells are terriers and need two one hour walks a day.

Adam – Onions and garlic are toxic for dogs.

Aminah – Some dogs may need more exercise than other dogs.

Harum – When taking your dog for a walk you should let it sniff and not keep pulling it.

Fairtrade Fortnight

Dear Parent/Carer,

Our Fairtrade Pupil Group members have been working very hard to promote Fairtrade Fortnight which starts on Monday 24 February and finishes on Sunday 8 March 2020.

As preparation for Fairtrade Fortnight the Primary 4 pupil group members conducted a survey to find out which treats children would like to buy at the tuck shop we are planning to run. A subgroup of Primary 5s created posters to advertise the tuck shop around the school. The older members of the pupil group will be giving a speech and showing a PowerPoint to the rest of the school to raise awareness of Fairtrade. The Primary 7 members created a rota for the tuck shop (see below).

We would like to invite children to bring in cash to buy a Fairtrade treat from the tuck shop. We will be offering Geobake chocolate chip cookies, a variety of Divine chocolate bars and Fairtrade Jellybeans. The tuck shop will be running from Monday 2nd March until Friday 6th March. All items are £1.10 so please send your child with the correct amount if possible.

  • Monday 2nd March – Primary 1 and Primary 2
  • Tuesday 3rd March – Primary 3
  • Wednesday 4th March – Primary 4 and Primary 5
  • Thursday 5th March – Primary 6
  • Friday 6th March – Primary 7

Fair Trade Tuck Shop

Yours sincerely,

Fairtrade Pupil Group
