Good morning boys and girls😀❣️

I hope you had a lovely relaxing Easter break with your family and enjoyed spending time in the beautiful sunshine. The weather has been fabulous, we have been very lucky! ☀️

It feels very strange not returning to school after our break but do not worry I have lots of fabulous home learning planned for you this week! Remember to try your best and just do what you can! I am missing your happy faces so please keep uploading pictures of you completing any of your activities on Twitter.

Parents and carers, each day I will upload a document with an overview of the tasks I would like your child to complete. Here is today’s overview:

DailyOverviewApril20th

Below I will include any additional information that will help to support your child with some of their tasks.

Literacy

Revision- Jolly Phonics songs

wh phoneme

This week’s phoneme is wh. Emphasize to your child that this phoneme is made up of two separate sounds w and h but when we put them together, the h becomes silent. You could introduce this sound to your child using any of the following videos:

Maths

Count to 100

Number Formation

Doorway Online is a great resource to help remind children how to form each number correctly.

Parents, please do not worry if your child does not manage to complete some of the activities I have planned each day. Just do what you are able to do and what suits your family circumstances. It is not a normal school day and whatever you manage to do at home, I really appreciate. The wellbeing of you and your child/children is the most important thing right now.

Have a great day boys and girls. Remember to take plenty of breaks, get some fresh air and enjoy the beautiful sunshine.😀

I miss you all lots and I am praying for the day that we are back at school learning together. 🙏🏻

Good morning Primary 7! I hope you all had a great Easter break with your family, the sunshine made it so much better didn’t it? It feels strange not going back into the classroom after the holidays however I am sure your brains are ready to focus and continue with home learning.

Remember the activities that are planned for you are suggestions and don’t worry if you don’t get through all the activities. It is important that we keep working but that you take plenty of breaks and get outside and enjoy the sunshine when you can.

Please see the attached document below that will set out today’s tasks for you.

20.04.20

Work will be uploaded here each day for you to access. It can be completed in the jotters that you were provided with from your learning pack. Remember any work you wish to upload should be done so under your class name and if you would like to share any videos or pictures of you completing any of the tasks you have been set you can do so via Twitter. Have fun, work hard and if you need anything you can contact me by email sreid@st-barbaras.n-lanark.sch.uk.

Let’s start today with our morning prayer, close your eyes and say a prayer to God thanking him for the special people in your lives.

Have a great day and try your best!

Hi boys and girls I hope you had a great Easter.  I had a good time but now its time to do some work.

Literacy

Today you have a new phoneme to learn, it is the phoneme ‘wh’.

This is a very important phoneme so you need to work hard to learn it and remember it.  It looks like this

1. Can you make this ‘wh’ sound to your mum or dad as many times as you can.
2. Can you make a rainbow ‘wh’ using 5 colours.
3. Some important words that start with ‘wh’ are Who, What, Where, when and Why. These are all question words.  Say these words to mum or dad and try hard to remember them.  Maybe you can make some rainbow, plasticine  or pasta words  too.
4. Can you think of another 2 ‘wh’ words and write a sentence with them.

Reading

1. I would like you to try and read one of these books today and talk to your mum or dad about ;

Who the characters are.

What happens in the story.

Where the story takes place.

2. Are there any ‘wh’ words in your book.

3. Can you copy the front cover of your book making all the words and pictures exactly like the book cover.

This is the link to the books.

Boys and girls I have uploaded a power point all about keeping healthy to remind you that you must try to eat healthy food and exercise every day.  After you have watched the power point you can discuss it with someone at home and see how  many different kinds of fruit you can think of. what is your favourite fruit.  How many activities can you think of that you can do at home to help keep you fit and healthy?

Boys and girls, everywhere you look you can see signs of spring.  Can you talk to your mum and dad about these signs and say a special prayer to thank Jesus for our beautiful world.  Here is a beautiful spring picture to help you.

Other Information

There is a brand new grid for you to look at.  You can pick one activity to do each day.

Hope you all have a lovely day and don’t worry if you don’t manage to get all of this done.

Take care everyone.

Good Morning St. Barbara’s!

I hope that you and your families are all well and that you are enjoying the Spring sunshine in your garden.

Holy Week, the most important week in our Liturgical calendar began on Sunday.

Pope Francis had a very special message for young people and children on Palm Sunday.

Have a look at the powerpoint presentation attached and try to complete the task.

Good afternoon everyone,

I just want to say a big well done to everyone who took part in our Sumdog competition today. You all did extremely well but our class winner was Anna. Well done Anna I am very impressed with your score.

Happy holidays everyone!

Good afternoon my super sevens 🌟,

I hope you have all tried to complete today’s tasks, remember to post any pictures you have taken on Twitter.

I would like to congratulate Connor Ward for winning this weeks Sum Dog competition. This was a tricky competition and you smashed it. Well done, you should be extremely proud of yourself! I will be posting lots more maths competitions in the coming weeks. Let’s see who can beat our reigning champion, Connor 🏆.

I would like to wish you all a very happy and holy Easter break. I know this school holiday will be extremely different from previous holidays but it is important that we make the most of them by spending time with our family, get outside when possible and do lots of fun activities to keep us busy. Try not to spend too much time on computer games etc. Here are pictures of some Easter craft ideas.

Let us take a moment to remember the true meaning of Easter. Easter is a time when we remember that Jesus died for our sins. In the week leading up to Easter Sunday we celebrate Holy Week. During this week we prepare for the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus. Try to spend time each day of Holy Week saying a special little prayer. I have attached a PowerPoint that explains a bit about each day of Holy Week and why it is important.

Holy Week

Don’t eat too many chocolate eggs and please remember to stay safe. Speak to you all soon.
