Friday 27th March – Class 1 2019/20

Happy Friday everyone! To celebrate one of our favourite day’s of the week which is normally full of assembly, singing with Clare and Friday clubs I have tried to come up with a list of really fun suggestions for you to do at home today.

Day 5 of no school so see below for a ‘could do’ list for today. We want you and your families to look after each other and think about staying safe first so don’t worry if you can’t do all of this today!

I will, as always be emailing parents to collect in our weekend news work. Please remember to take a picture and share a couple of sentences about something you have been up to over Saturday and Sunday. It was wonderful last week to catch up with what everyone’s been up to!

Your assigned reading books are uploaded and ready to read. Mum’s and Dad’s as time goes on please remember to feedback to me so I know when it’s time to assign new books.

10.00-10.30: Science

Following on from our school trip at the start of the year I thought it would be an interesting task to check in and see what some of the animals were up to at Edinburgh Zoo.

You can check up on the Panda’s, Penguin’s, Tiger’s and Koala’s! How cool!

10:30-11:15: Break Time

It’s important that you have breaks and fresh air if you can. Social distancing means you can’t go and play with other people that you don’t live with but you can go outside with your family for a walk, a run in the park or a cycle ride. Don’t stay inside all day.

Have a healthy snack – a piece of fruit or some raisins?

11:15-12:15: Music

Normally we’d be blessed with the lovely Clare teaching us all about musical scales, new songs and musical beats.

It won’t be quite the same but I have found a video of a song for you to watch and sing at home that is one of our class favourites. Perhaps you could teach someone at home…

Then there’s another of our favourite songs, ‘The Birdie Song’ remember this is a tricky tongue twister so do your best…

Next is a compilation of music lessons taught in a fun way, the video is quite long so you might want to split it up into shorter sections but the content is good fun!

12:15-1pm: Lunch

Have a healthy lunch and go outside again if you can! If not, maybe put on some music and have a lunchtime disco in the house to get your body moving again!

Go outside again if you can or have another disco…or you could do another Cosmickids yoga session in your living room? Keep your body moving!

At the end of each day, we will send you stories to listen to/read. Some of these will be read by your lovely St. Albert’s teachers, others might be by famous authors. To get ready for the story:
