Today is Ascension Thursday!

We have been thinking about loving and caring for others all week and we have tried to follow Jesus’ commandment to, ‘Love one another as I have loved you.’

You have created a Caring Wreath to show that you care and you have learned about how Jesus ascended into heaven forty days after his resurrection on Easter Sunday.

Normally on Ascension Thursday we would all be going to Mass. Although we can’t actually go to church today, Bishop Toal is celebrating Mass for all of the children of the Diocese of Motherwell at 11am. 

This Mass is being streamed on Facebook so you will need an adult’s permission to watch this:

www.facebook.com/rcmotherwell

Father Campbell is also celebrating Mass on St. Barbara’s Parish website at 10am.

With an adult’s permission, please select a Mass to follow.

You might also like to watch the clip below. You can join in if you like.

Continue to revise your phoneme words and ask a parent or older sibling to dictate some sentences for you.

Today, (if this is possible, if not then you can do this tomorrow or another day when you have the ingredients) I would like us to have a P4/3 Bake off.  I know that some of you have been learning to bake or make cakes.  I would like you to do this today and post a picture on twitter or email me at gw09grahamannemarie@glow.sch.uk.  I also want you to use your knowledge of instructional writing and write the instructions for how to make your cake.  I will include them and the pictures on our Shining Stars page.  It’s a great way of swapping recipes. I will participate too and post my outcome on twitter! Remember:

• List the ingredients you require such as flour, sugar etc.
• List the utensils you need such as bowl, wooden spoon etc.
• Remember words like: First, Next, Then, Finally.

I’m looking forward to seeing them!

Remember there is still a SUMDOG competition on until Thursday and we need more of you to play to ensure we qualify and make the leaderboard!

RE 

This week we have been looking at Jesus’ commandment to:

‘Love one another as I have loved you.’

Jesus showed his love for all of us on Good Friday when he died on the cross. Tomorrow we are going to celebrate the Feast of the Ascension. On this day, forty days after his resurrection on Easter Sunday, Jesus ascended into Heaven leaving the disciples behind to carry on with his work and to be witnesses for him.  They were a little scared to be left without Jesus but they believed in him and they knew that he would not leave them alone. They were quite right of course; the Holy Spirit came to help them on the Feast of Pentecost and we’ll explore that later.

Below you will see two very different video clips about the Ascension. Please watch both of them.

Now what I would like you to do is to draw or make your own reminder of what happened on the Feast of the Ascension.

You could think about making the figures of Jesus, his disciples and the two people dressed in white – you could even create your own video clip.

Or  you could draw them and write a sentence or a paragraph below; you might want to make a picture using other media – e.g. cotton wool for the clouds.

I have attached some ideas to help you below.

Whatever activity you choose to do, please email it to gw09grahamannemarie@glow.sch.uk or, with an adult’s permission, upload it on to Twitter @St_BarbarasPS

Good morning boys and girls 🙋‍♀️

How are you all feeling today?

How good do you feel when you laugh?

Laughter sparkles like sunshine.😂 ☀️ 

Usually you all like to tell me jokes in class so today I thought I would start off with a little joke or two, to make you laugh (hopefully). I am missing all your jokes very much!

Here goes…

Why was 6 afraid of 7?
Because 7, 8, 9

Why can’t Elsa have a balloon?
Because she will let it go.

Even if they didn’t make you laugh, I hope they made you smile😀

Let’s get started on today activities.

We will begin our day as always, with our morning prayer.🙏🏻

God our Father, as we prepare to begin our work, we ask you to help us use properly, the many gifts you have given us, so that we may fully benefit from our day together in school. St. Barbara, pray for us.

Literacy – I know that you have all been busy bees 🐝 working very hard and have learned a new sound. Can you remember what your new phoneme is? That’s correct “ee”. How many “ee” words can you remember? I’m going to give you some clues, can you shout out the answers?
1. I have lots of these in my mouth, they help me chew my food.

2. I am white and fluffy and I live in a field.

3. Plant me in soil and I will grow.

4. I am the colour of grass.

5. I am royal and I wear a crown.

I thought that you might like to watch this little clip from Alphablocks.

Now I would like you to read these words to someone in your family.

Practise these words on your whiteboard or into your jotter.

Remember to use our strategy:

Say the word – teeth

Make the word/break the word – t   ee   th

Blend the word (push it together)  – teeth

Read the word 📖  – teeth

Write the word 🖊- teeth

Common words – had, see, has. Choose a fun way to practise your common words. Why not try them in sand if you have some in your garden. Can anyone remember my favourite ways to write my common words? I sent you some pictures a few weeks ago. Maybe you could send me a picture of your favourite fun spelling practise. I’d love to see them.

Reading – I have assigned you a new book to read on scholastic. I hope that you are enjoying your books. You have been doing so well!
