21 April 2020 Primary 5

Good morning Primary 5,

Let’s begin our day with a prayer:

Lord, we thank you for our healthcare systems and those who work in them. We pray for all healthcare workers that through their love and compassion, those who are vulnerable and needy might come to know healing and peace in their lives. We pray for those who have to make difficult decisions about resources or treatments that they will do so with care and integrity. Lord, continue your ministry of healing in the lives of those who are broken, vulnerable and in need.  Amen.

I hope that you are awake and ready to learn. Let’s start the day by putting on our dancing shoes getting our bodies moving:

Today I challenge you to create your own reading den. It can be indoors or outdoors.  You can use whatever you want to create your structure. Create a cosy space and enjoy your personal reader. Try to share a picture of yourself enjoying your den.

Continue exploring prefixes. In your jotter create a table and sort words under the correct prefix. Use the following worksheet to help you. You can select from the three level of difficulty.
