Hello,

I can’t believe it is nearly June! The weather is so lovely, please make sure you spend some time outside enjoying it.

Task 1:

Listen to the end of George’s Marvellous Medicine.

Think back to some of your predictions. Did you imagine the book to end this way? Answer the following questions:

1. Do you think this is a happy ending? Why do you think this?
2. How would you feel if this happened to one of your relatives?
3. What do you think would happen next if something like this happened in real life?
4. At the end it says George touched a magical world, what clues in the book tell us what happened was magical?

Task 2:

Do the Standing long Jump Challenge and post in the comments your results.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Task 3:

Listen to Miss McCue reading from a book about our feelings and mental health.

Take some times to think about some of the questions she asks from the book.

Are there any feelings mentioned in the book you have never heard of?  Do a bit of research, what do they mean and how do you act when you feel this way?

Think about how you have been feeling during lock down.  Write a little bit about the things that have made it hard and how you felt and acted when things got difficult.

Task 4:

Enjoy the Sunshine!!!

Well done to those of you who have tried to beat the teacher on Sumdog.  But only three people in the class have been on their Sumdog profile this week and it is important you do the work I have set for you on there.  Make sure you log on and complete ALL the challenges I have set, you have until 31st May before they end!

Task 3:

I planted some nasturtium seeds inside and now they are ready to plant outside.  I noticed that everyday the leaves move to face the sun so I filmed a time lapse so show this happening.

Watch the video and follow the links to help you answer the questions.

Good morning Primary 4.

Here are some learning tasks for today.

First some Science with a Circuits online experiment. To try this here are the steps you need to follow:

•  Open the bpES website: bp.com/bpes
•  Click on ‘Enter a student code’ (top right on all pages if you are not logged in)
• Enter the code below.

Student code: 81973

Here are two worksheets to complete about what you found out:

BrightLights_Worksheet1 (1)

BrightLights_Worksheet2

Now for some Maths word problems. Check if you have got them right using a calculator or ask an adult to check them for you.,

MC_addition_word_probs

Next some Literacy. There are three versions of this text.  You could start with the easiest one and then try the next one or two if you wish.

birds-in-your-garden-differentiated-reading-comprehension

Here are some other activities to try on the subject of birds. For the first one, it would be a good idea to get some bird seed from the local supermarket and sprinkle it on the ground in a safe place. Then watch from a window or place where the birds won’t see you and use this sheet to record what birds you see. Colour one box for each bird you see of each type.

T-T-17663-Garden-Bird-Sitings-Bar-Chart

These next sheets are for your own research. Look online to find out facts on these different types of birds and complete the fact files. Here is a useful Powerpoint presentation to help you get started:

t-sc-2549592-ks1-british-birds-information-powerpoint_ver_5

t-t-253355-birds-in-your-garden-fact-file-activity-sheet_ver_1

Here is a wordsearch you can try all about birds:

T-T-2545159-KS1-British-Birds-Word-Search

Don’t forget Birdwatching is a fascinating hobby you can do all year round, wherever you are. If you are interested in attracting birds to your garden or back court here is a link to a page that will show you how to make your own bird feeders.

https://community.rspb.org.uk/ourwork/b/scotland/posts/do-it-yourself-bird-feeders

I hope you enjoy these activities. Let me know how you get on in the comments section or email me some pictures at my usual Glow address.

Hi boys and girls,

Another gorgeous sunny day after all that rain. Make sure you get out and enjoy it.

Here are today’s learning tasks:

Write an acrostics poem about summer.

To do this you need to make a list of describing words about summer. Then on a piece of paper write the word summer in capital letters going down the page with one letter at the start of each line like this:

S

U

M

M

E

R

Then use the describing words you have written to write each line. The first word should begin with the letters of the word summer.

Here is a tricky set of multiplication problems to try:

We love seeing what you have been doing.  Send us your work and we’ll share it with the class.

Hi,

Tomorrow is a school holiday and Eid is coming up this weekend.  We won’t post any home learning tomorrow or Monday so you can help prepare for Eid and enjoy it as much as you can with your family. However, the teachers have made a special Eid video for you all and I will post that tomorrow.

Task 1:

Mr Corrigan made this artwork of a beautiful Eid moon.

See if you can make one and, if you like, once it is dry you can write a kind message on the back and post it to a friend or relative as an Eid gift.

Task 2:

Beat the teacher!!!  I have logged on to Sumdog and had a go at trying to beat some of your scores on the challenges I set. Log on and see if you can do better than I did!
https://www.sumdog.com/user/sign_in

Task 3:

Listen to chapter 12 of George’s Marvellous Medicine:

See if you can write a short summary of the story so far.  It can’t be more than 5 sentences long so make sure you only add in the most important parts of the story.

Task 4:

Miss Bhatti made this wonderful video of how to make the most of the rest of Ramadan and Eid this year.

As Eid is approaching it is important that we think about our actions and how we can spread love and kindness.  See if you can do something for someone that shows kindness.  For example: making your Mum a cup of tea, doing the dishes or a household chore, making a card for someone you love and posting it through their door, cooking something delicious and leaving it on someone’s doorstep.
Send me your acts of kindness and I will post some of mine 🙂

Everyone who requested a learning pack should now have one.  These packs are for people who can not access the blog and learning online.  If you want to see the pack online you can access it all here:

Digital Learning Pack for Term 4

If you requested one and have not received one can you please let me know via text and I will arrange one to be dropped off.

Have a wonderful weekend and Eid Mubarak when it comes!
Mrs Pattie

 

 

Hello boys and girls,

It is a gorgeous warm day today. Make sure you go out and soak up some sun. Don’t forget to go out for a walk and if you have access to a phone you could use the Spot-a-bee app that I have mentioned on the Eco page of our school blog, to take pictures of bees on plants that you spot and send the pictures in to the scientists in the Spot-a-bee project to help them with their research into the kinds of plants that bees favour.

I have been doing a lot of painting in my spare time. I painted my own shed at home and I have been in school this morning painting the school shed. It badly needed it. I used a special paint for sheds. Can you guess what colour it is? Maybe you can tell me in the comments box. It will need several coats because the wood is so dry it is just soaking up the paint. I hope we can decorate it with some stencils maybe of flowers, ivy  and bees. Anyway it is looking a bit better already.

Following on from last week, here are some more learning tasks on the topic of Ancient Rome.

Hi boys and girls,

It was nice to see some rain yesterday as the plants and trees must be needing a drink after that spell of dry weather we have been having. The grass in my garden has turned a funny shade of yellow without the rain. I am hoping it will make a comeback now.  I hope you are getting out for walks in this most beautiful season. Fresh air and exercise are important to our health and well being.

As we are approaching the end of Ramadan and Eid-ul-Fitr is at the weekend, here are  some learning tasks about this.
