Recently we studied germination and plant/ flower growth in class. Unfortunately, we were unable to conduct the experiment that we had planned. I have always wanted to grow my own vegetables, so over the coming weeks I am going to try hard to have ‘green fingers’ and grow my own vegetables from cuttings. If you are interested in having a go watch the following clip for some ideas:

Again, please remember that you are free to select and adapt suggested activities. The most important thing is to keep yourself busy and active. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reply or email.
Have a very happy Thursday, Mrs Haughey x
Mrs Haughey – I hope you and your family are well. Euan has not managed to do as much work as planned in last 2 weeks as we decided to get a puppy 🐶 He has told me all about your dog already so you will know how much time this takes to training. I am on annual leave this week so euan won’t be getting the holiday that he would have done and we spent today very structured 👍🏼 Christopher done PE with him and Emma doing science 🧪 Going to writea Story about the new puppy Cody as we made a word map with all the adjectives today ♥️
I hope that you have had a great Easter break. It sounds like you have been very busy. Well done to Christopher and Emma for helping with home learning. I would love to read Euan’s story about Cody! He looks gorgeous,but I know how much hard work they are at the beginning, it does get easier! Hope you are all well. Look out for P5’s new home learning ideas on Monday. Take care,
Mrs H x
