Good Morning everyone. Hope you are all well today. I see some of you have done tasks we have set on Sumdog and Studyladder. Well done. What have you chosen to do from the grid this week?
What daily exercises have you managed to do? It would be great to hear how you are all getting on.
Have a good day.

Good Morning Boys
How are you today? I can’t believe it’s Wednesday already! The days are going by so quickly. 🙂
Have you had a chance to see the special message from all the staff at Muir Street yet?
Just click this link below…and enjoy!

I hope you got a chance to explore as a marine biologist in the MINECRAFT activity I tagged yesterday – it looked like so much fun. There are lots of activities to explore in the free section of Minecraft Education marketplace…maybe you could try a different one today?
Remember to try 1 or 2 activities from our Home Learning Grid today. Have you managed to take part in a Body Coach Session with Joe Wicks this week?:)
I’m still thinking about those rainbows. If you manage to make a rainbow from painted or coloured stones, remember to take a photograph. When we begin to use our Glow Teams, you could post it for everyone in our class to see. 🙂
Here’s another idea to try indoors.
Why not have fun with some messy play? Here are some ideas to use spaghetti to make another rainbow. : https://www.kidspot.com.au/things-to-do/activity-articles/sensory-spaghetti-messy-play/news-story/3d3eb128193c9576dc484f61af422c34
Hopefully you have been practising your money skills over the last couple of weeks. I think you will enjoy this little activity on BBC Bitesize.Why not try it today?
BBC Bitesize
P3 – Recognising coins.

I hope you have a lovely day and don’t forget to take your daily exercise. Hopefully the sun will shine today! : )
Take care and stay safe. I’m thinking about you and your families. I miss those wonderful smiles!
Remember to make someone at home laugh or smile today instead. 🙂

Good morning Primary 5,

We are all missing school and seeing our friends every day, I know I am. Here’s a little quote to remember for today and every day;
It’s great to see you working your way through the activities on your Home Learning Grids . Remember these are here for guidance and you don’t need to complete every activity on there. Just do what you can 😊
Literacy
1. Why did Mrs Meek want to go down to the vaults?
2. What do you think the word ‘wrath’ means? (1m30)
3. Describe what it was like in the vaults.
4. What do you think an encyclopaedia is?

Good morning boys and girls,
I was wondering if anyone was spotting lots of birds either in your garden or if you are out for some daily exercise? I have a bird bath in my garden and the birds have really been enjoying it last few weeks. I am not sure if it’s always this busy and I just don’t get the chance to see it when I am at school or if the birds have been extra thirsty and wanting a nice cool bath with the recent nice weather. I also have 3 funny squirrels that visit every day! What bird and animal life can you spot?
Something different for today- a special video message from all the Muir Street Staff:
Hello to all of our Muir Street family
We have created a special message for you all.
All you have to do is click the link below!
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7f662W8DCVE
Enjoy
Love from all the staff at MSP xxx
You should receive details about moving onto Glow Teams in the post this week and we will move onto this next week. We will then be able to chat online at specific times and you can have online chats/conversations with other children in our class. I am really looking forward to hearing how you all are!
A note to parents/carers-
The suggested activities are just that suggestions, participation is at your discretion, complete if you can and find it appropriate to do so. Many of you will have your own work to do at home and it can be difficult to juggle both. Please remember both you and your child’s mental health is most important during this difficult time.
Some suggestions for this coming week:
Please refer to the grid for daily suggestions for Literacy and Numeracy. Other curricular areas can be completed if this works for your family.
Click below to open the grid
Literacy
Phonics and Common Words: (Refer to Grid)
Reading Activity
Text/Video– Ice Maker, Ice Breaker
Comprehension- Listen to the video again and also the video in the quiz section and complete the online quiz activities.
Pencil Activity
Can you answer these in sentences, remember to use the question to help you for the answer and include capital letters and full-stops. Remember too your best handwriting. Aim high and give it your best try!
Art and Design
Use lines to create a patterned back ground. Colour the background if you would like to make your design more attractive. Then using a variety of recycled or new paper create shapes by cutting out to make the body parts for a bird. Glue your bird or birds to your patterned back ground.
Additional PE Ideas
Click below to open
Remember if you would like to leave a comment via Twitter, it would be lovely to hear from you! Hopefully soon we’ll be up and running on Glow Teams- look out for your login details arriving in the post this week!
Have a good day and remember these are just suggestions. Keep safe.
Regards
Mrs Brown

Good Morning Boys
I hope you had a lovely day yesterday and made a great start to the week. 🙂
I can see from your logs you have been working really hard on your Studyladder activities…well done! I was especially delighted to see some of you have already started the set reading activities from our Home Learning Grid. I’m so proud of the effort you are making to learn at home boys! Don’t forget to thank your Mum and Dad for their help! 🙂
Remember to try something new from the Home Learning Grid today if you can. 🙂
I noticed so many beautiful rainbows displayed in windows when I was out for a walk last night and it gave me an idea.
I thought it would be nice to make a rainbow using stones which you can find in the garden or when out for a family walk. Paint the stones and make your own rainbow. Put it in the garden for everyone to see. Or maybe use chalk to draw a beautiful rainbow on your garden path. Count how may stones you needed to make your rainbow.
Our ESPRESSO CHALLENGE this week is to learn more about life under the sea. The videos and activities are super and I know you will enjoy them.
I know you love creating and problem solving in your Minecraft game so I know you’ll enjoy this challenge! 🙂
MINECRAFT EDUCATION are offering free access to some of their resources.
https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/marketplace/education
Today I would like you to explore under the sea! Enjoy!
The weather is not as sunny so maybe you could challenge someone at home to a Just Dance competition for some exercise today.
I hope you have a great day and enjoy our new challenges.
Remember…make someone at home smile or laugh today. 🙂
Take care and stay safe.
