Hello boys and girls,
I hope you all had a good weekend and are all well. Please find attached note from Mrs Brightman with some suggestions to keep you busy today.
Mrs Hughes
Good Morning Pupils and Parents!
Day 1 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!
If you are learning at home, take videos and pictures of what you’ve done and post them on the blog or on Twitter for us all to see – believe it or not, the teachers are missing you!
9am
9:30-10:30: Literacy
|
Using one of your jotters, practise writing the letters. You can draw the picture from the song too!
Can you write any words?
|
| P2 and P3 – In one of your jotters, draw a picture of yourself and your family and add speech bubbles to say how you are feeling today when there’s no school. Are you sad? Are you excited? Are you bored and not sure what to do? What do your parents think? Are they worried about how long the school will be closed for?

| P4 and P5 – In one of your jotters, write a diary entry about this weekend. What was strange? What was different than normal? How will this week be strange? Try to describe things and say how you are feeling about schools being closed and the coronavirus problem. |
| P6 and P7 – In one of your jotters, write an email to a friend or someone official (Boris Johnson/Nicola Sturgeon). Tell them how you are feeling. Ask them questions. Tell them what you think should happen next. |
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: Maths
Your log in is in your home learning pack. Please spend today getting online on SumDog and looking at all the lessons you can do there.
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!
1-2pm: Expressive Art
Choose one (or more) of the following to have a go at – you can look at the videos or use Google Images to help you find examples to copy.
P1-3
- Draw as many different shapes as you can think of and colour them all in different colours – you could label them? ‘A yellow circle, a green triangle…’
- Mix some flour and water with a few drops of food colouring to make paint: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4ws_5USjFg – use your fingers to make a picture
P4-7
- Search YouTube for a ‘how to draw…’ tutorial on something you want to try drawing – you can find almost ANYTHING! (Tip: write ‘easy’ or ‘for kids’ or ‘beginners’ as part of your search!)
- Follow one of the online video to learn to make origami creatures:
2-2:30pm: Break Time
Go outside again if you can or have another disco…or you could do another Joe Wicks workout for kids? Stay Active!!
2:30-3pm: Story and chat
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:
- Get a snack and a drink
- Get somewhere comfy – on cushions/sofa/bed, under a blanket
- Get one of your parents or a brother/sister to listen with you
