Good morning primary 3,
I hope you are all having a nice week in the sunshine.
Thank you for all of the photographs of your virtual sports day. It looks like you all had great fun!
Literacy
Today is our writing day. We are going to be writing an imaginative story.
This is a fictional story and must include characters, setting and a main event.
To help you generate some ideas have a look at the story mat below.
Use a dice to choose one thing from each column. You should roll the dice 3 times to give yourself a character, setting and a problem. The problem will be your main event. If you do not have a dice at home then you can choose one thing from each column.
Now I would like you to use these three things to write an imaginative story. Remember it must have a beginning, a middle and an end. You could also include a picture.
Don’t forget to check your core targets!
I would love to read some of your finished stories. Please send them to gw17mcmullenkenedi@glow.sch.uk

We have all been enjoying the lovely sunny weather recently and it has been great to be able to get outside and play. Even though it is important for everyone to enjoy the sun we have got to remember that it can burn your skin. There are three important steps to stop sunburn:
• Cover up with clothing and a hat
• Spend time in the shade,
• Wear suitable sunscreen and apply it often
In the attached sheet the character in it is out in the sun with no hat!!! I would like you to design a hat for the character and make sure it offers suitable protection against the sun.
Or if you want to make a more detailed design on your sun hat why not click on the link below.

R.E
When we pray it is important to remember a few simple things. Prayers can be simple thoughts and words coming straight from the heart. Sometimes God doesn’t seem to give us what we pray for. Do not give up praying – keep on talking to God and listening for he knows what is best for you, even if it is not what you expected. It is also important to remember that we don’t just ask God for things we want. Remember to praise God and thank him for his goodness, to tell him about ourselves and others and say sorry if we have done wrong.
Why not join in with this hymn Alleluia Alleluia Give Thanks to the Risen Lord below to praise God:
I would like you to write out a short prayer thanking God for all the wonderful things you have in your life. I have included a template below for you to use or you can design your own.
Please send us a copy of your picture at gw17mcmullenkenedi@glow.sch.uk or Tweet us @St_BarbarasPS.
Also as it is Thursday again let’s remember to praise (thank) all NHS workers tonight at 8pm by clapping and making as much noise as you can for them.
Have a wonderful day boys and girls!
Remember to get in touch if there is anything at all I can help you with.
Miss McMullen X
