Good morning superstars!⭐️
I hope you are all up and ready to learn.
Please keep sending me in your work. I will keep posting some wonderful work examples for you all to see.
Literacy
Today is our taught writing day. We are going to continue our work on narrative writing.
I would like you to write an imaginative story. Please watch the short video below to remind you what that is.
Today you are going to be deciding what your story is about. The only rule is that it must be imaginative and based on one of the pictures below.
Below you will see 3 pictures. I would like you to choose one of the pictures and that will give you the setting for your story.
Now you have chosen your setting and you are ready to plan your story. Please use the planning sheet below. Remember your story must have a beginning, a middle and an end.
You are now ready to write your imaginative story in your jotter. Don’t forget to give it a title.
When you are finished please send them to me at gw17mcmullenkenedi@glow.sch.uk
I cannot wait to read all of your wonderful ideas!
Numeracy
Today is our last day of revising multiplication.

You can choose any table to work on. Can you beat my highest score of 25?
Send me your score so we can assign a new class champion.
Today we are going to bring together all of the multiplication strategies we have learned. I would like you to choose one multiplication problem e.g. 3 x 5
Red – choose from the 2, 5 or 10 times tables.
Amber – choose from the 2, 5, 10 or 3 times tables.
Green – choose from the 3 or the 4 times tables.
Please use a ruler and lay out your page like the example below.
Now please show the problem you chose earlier in a variety of ways. We did this is class before. Have a look at the example to help you.
Send me a picture of your work to gw17mcmullenkenedi@glow.sch.uk
To finish please practice your tables out loud to someone at home.

We were talking yesterday about how important it is to look after our bodies. Drinking plenty especially during exercise and warm weather to keep us hydrated. Our bodies are amazing things.
Here is a little activity to keep you busy and at the same time learn about all of the parts that make up ‘US’!!
Have you got a roll of wallpaper lying around or if you have been receiving lots of packages (did you know all our posties are busier than their busiest time of the year, Christmas!) during lockdown and have cardboard boxes around I want you to lie them flat on the ground and get someone in your house to draw round you. (The weather’s not looking that good today but should be dry so even do this task outside).
Here we have our template!! Can you label and identify as many parts of the human body – all our organs? See if you can have a good guess at where they are located. Our heart 
should be easy, what about our lungs, liver etc. Try to see how many you can find. You could even put your artistic talents to good use and draw them in.
Remember to email your marvellous pictures to gw17mcmullenkenedi@glow.sch.uk or upload it onto Twitter with an adult’s permission.

As we know things just now are very different from what we are used to. By now our new Primary 1 children would have been in to visit the school but, like you, they have not been able to come in for their visits. We are thinking that it would be a lovely idea for you to say a little prayer for them. In order to make them feel welcome to our school in August, I would like you to choose the word for your stage below, write/colour it on a sheet of paper, hold it up and ask an adult to take a picture of you holding your word with a big smile and if it is possible you could wear your uniform. Please email your picture to (Teacher’s Glow email). We will use these to make our Primary 1’s feel very welcome in school.
A Great Big Welcome To St. Barbara’s!
Primary 1 – A; Primary 5 – Great; Primary 4 – Big; Primary 6 – Welcome; Primary 2 – To; PRIMARY 3 – St. (remember the dot); Primary 7 – Barbara’s!
Do you remember our Easter Message?
We still miss you lots 
!!
Have a wonderful day boys and girls and please get in touch if you have any questions.
Take care!
Miss McMullen 😊🌈
