Fairtrade Family Challenge – Competition Time!!
Competition Time!!!!
Watch the video linked here ‘Guardians of the Rainforest’: https://schools.fairtrade.org.uk/resource/guardians-of-the-rainforest/
It follows the life of a boy named Beshey who lives and farms in the Gola Rainforest . If you are in P1-3 you could ask an adult to sit with you and help you take notes. If you are P4-7 try to take notes on your own whilst watching the video.
What do you see in the Gola Rainforest?
How does Beshey live and farm?
Where does he live?
Your task this week is to create a picture of the rainforest/visualizer from what you have learned from Beshey living in Gola. Try to put in as much detail as you can. You can label your drawing.
We will be looking for the most creative and detailed drawings and visualizers.
This is a competition so do your best!!
Ask an adult to upload your pictures to the blog as a reply to this post. We will judge as a staff and a winner from each stage will be given a certificate and house points.
Have fun!! Remember to use the video to help create your picture/ visualizer.

Chapelgreen and Banton Partnership Family Challenges
Chapelgreen and Banton Partnership Schools
Family Learning Challenges
We know how hard it can be when you have more than one child working on different things during the course of the week. To try to address this and to perhaps help ease some of the difficulties, we have developed some family learning challenges.
These challenges reflect the work we have started in school and work that had been planned as part of our pupil committees, assemblies and curricular developments this term.
We will issue these challenges once a week and we would love to encourage you and your child/ren to participate together. This work can be completed in place of a piece of topic work and the class teachers will adjust their weekly planning to reflect this.
As we have a wide range of ages within our school, we will provide a choice of two tasks within the challenge for most weeks. You can, however, choose the task which you feel is most appropriate for you and your family. (Or just the one you like the sound of most!)
Certificates and points to be won for the weekly challenge winners
This week’s challenge follows our Fairtrade theme and will be posted on the school blog shortly.
As always, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact.

Hope you are continuing to stay safe and well.

Week Beginning 27/04
Hello everyone!
I hope you all had a great weekend and enjoyed the sunshine.
I spent time tidying up my garden! What did you get up to?
I have attached the learning grid for this week. This is a guide of what activities you could be doing each day. Feel free to choose which activities suit what day.
I would love to see what activities you have been completing. Please send in your completed activities so I can share your hard work with the class!
Remember Sumdog is a useful resource to revise your maths skills!
Each week I will be checking Sumdog scores and will announce the SUMDOG CHAMPION OF THE WEEK! This will be the person who has answered the most correct answers the previous week!
Stay safe!

Fairtrade Family Learning Fun
Good morning,
I hope you are all safe and well. Before the holidays we were learning about Fairtrade in assembly and in class. We even made Fairtrade banana bread and cookies. They were delicious!
As we cannot continue this learning in school for the moment we would like the pupils to engage in some family learning at home.
Family Learning Challenge
This challenge can be completed as a family if you have more than one child at the school. Choose whichever activity you find most suitable for your family situation and the resources and time you have on hand.
1- Watch the video clip using the link below…

Indoor and Outdoor Play- Early Level
I hope our pupils have had a wonderful Easter break. I am sure they will have had plenty of opportunity for lots of play both indoor and outdoor, especially with this lovely weather.
Play is an essential part of every child’s life and is vital for the enjoyment of childhood as well as social, emotional , intellectual and physical development.
I have attached a link to a play grid for early years. This will be updated every fortnight.
If you would like to email any photographs of your children completing these activities these will be uploaded to our school blog. rmeimaroglou@chapelgreen. n-lanark.sch.uk
Stay safe and well. Happy playing!!
