Hi boys and girls!
I just wanted to send you a message to let you know I have signed you all onto Studyladder and I have everyone’s login details. Please email me to get your details at:
MaryGrant@st-barbaras.n-lanark.sch.uk
I also have all your First news and Sumdog logins too, so feel free to contact me to get them.
I’m missing you all! Keep safe boys and girls!
Mrs Grant 😁
Happy Friday Primary 6!!
I’ve been so happy to see so many of you working on Sumdog, First News and StudyLadder this week, but I know that you must be missing me so I took this picture of me smiling so that you remember what it’s like being in my class every day.
Now is also a good time to remind you that you have spelling and literacy challenges as well as maths on Sumdog and some new mental maths challenges on Studyladder.
How did you get on with your literal, inferential and evaluative questions yesterday?
The inferential ones are always the hardest, but those are the ones that really show how much you understand the story.
Here is Cressida Cowell reading Chapter 3 of, “How to Train your Dragon”
Hiccup and Fishlegs have escaped from the caves in Wild Dragon Cliff but their troubles are not over yet.
Sequence their escape up Madman’s Gulley until the part of the story where Gobber The Belch yells, “Heroes or exile!”
You could do this in bullet points or you could create a comic strip which shows this part of the story with captions explaining the action.
Keep using your learning grids and remember that sometimes even your parents need a break from how wonderful you are.

Good morning Primary 7,
It’s Friday which means that week 1 of home learning is nearly over. I am sure you have all been busy working on your learning grids this week and I would really like to see some pictures of the activities you have completed posted on Twitter or emailed to myself.
As your week has been very different from a normal school week perhaps you could write a short recount of what it has been like to learn at home and some of the things you have been doing.
I have attached a reading bingo grid below, this might be a fun way to do your personal reading for today. Maybe you could read a chapter or two to a sibling or your parent or guardian.
It would be great if you could all go on to Top Marks today and complete a Daily 10 challenge to get your brains working. Select level 6, Doubles/ Halves and up to 500. If you really want to challenge yourself you can select up to 1000. I will even let you select manual instead of setting a timer.
We have been exploring angles in maths why not see if you can photograph and measure angles around your house? Treat your family members to a little sing song and show them your knowledge of angles through our angles song to the tune of the YMCA.
To work on some life skills why don’t you make lunch for the people in your household today? It might be nice for whoever has been looking after you all week to get a little break.
Have a fantastic Friday and try to get outdoors for some fresh air this weekend. Stay safe Primary 7!
Mrs Butler 🙂
Good morning 🙂
Happy Friday! Well done for making it through your first week of home learning. I am sure you have been working hard and listening carefully to your mum’s and dad’s but most importantly I am sure you have been having lots of FUN with your family.
A lovely way to start your day would be to say this simple 5 finger prayer.
We have been working hard in class improving our Spanish skills. Why not show off your skills to one of your family members? Can you tell them the days of the week and months of the year in Spanish? You could even sing them a song!
Keep working through the activities on your learning grid. Remember I have set you some maths, reading and spelling challenges on Sumdog. Your challenges finish today so… GO! GO! GO! I have also signed you up for Study Ladder. If you haven’t got your login details yet just send me an email. lmceleney@st-barbaras.n-lanark.sch.uk
Since you have worked so hard this week you certainly deserve some GOLDEN TIME. Play with a toy or game you haven’t played with in a while. 
Today I am going to try and bake a victoria sponge cake 🙂 Let’s hope it all goes to plan!
Have a lovely weekend boys and girls. Keep safe and keep smiling.
Miss McEleney 🙂
Good morning boys and girls. It is Friday which means GOLDEN TIME! If you work hard throughout the day take some time off this afternoon to have a play.
Things have been very different for everyone this week and it might be like this for a while. You could start a diary or write a letter to your friends if you are missing them to tell them about all the fun you are having at home.
Tonight is movie night in my house and we are watching Toy Story 4!
Have a lovely weekend.
Mrs McGill
Good morning to all our fabulous P5s,
I hope that everyone is managing to get into a routine and trying hard to keep active. Well done to the boys and girls who have managed to complete tasks from Sumdog, First News and Studyladder. Remember to choose an activity from your grid today and share any pics with us on St Barbara’s Twitter.
I hope that you all enjoyed Glasgow Science Centre’s Elephant Toothpaste Experiment yesterday morning. Tune in to Glasgow Science Centre Youtube channel for more amazing science this morning at 10am.

Good morning boys and girls,
Happy Friday!!
Let’s get today off to a great start and try a new workout with ‘Jumpstart Jonny’. Let’s get moving Primary 2 (http://www.youtube.com/jumpstartjonny)
I hope you are all well and keeping busy working through your learning grids. Well done for your first week of home learning.
I have signed you all up to study ladder (http://www.studyladder.co.uk). This is another great online resource where you can access great activities to keep your brain active. Tasks will be set for you each week. Please email me for your username and password to login-
(Shreenann@st-barbaras.n-lanark.sch.uk)
Remember to revise your phoneme and common words that we have learned so far over the upcoming weeks- don’t forget you have your common word flash cards.
Have a great day learning and remember to take plenty of breaks.
Miss Shreenan 🙂
Good morning boys and girls. Happy Friday!
Since today was meant to be your assembly, why not sing one of your songs to your family. We didn’t have much practise but you were so good at singing and picked up the songs very quickly. You could sing “Spring is here”, “Spring Chicken” or “If I were a butterfly.” All of the music is available on YouTube.
Remember to work through the activities on your grid. It has been great seeing pictures of you on Twitter. If you have not already made a rainbow for your window you could paint or draw one.
It is important to have fun when you are learning – let’s see who can make the best den, big or small, it doesn’t matter. You could choose your favourite story and read it inside. This is all about the creativity. Post a picture on Twitter or you can send them to me – MCMacLeod@st-barbaras.n-lanark.sch.uk.
Here is a picture of your caterpillars. They are growing very quickly and will soon be forming cocoons. I will keep you updated on their progress.

Good morning boys and girls.
I hope you are all well and keeping safe. It has been great to see your posts on Twitter, keep sending them as I am missing you all. 😢
Remember on Sumdog we have access to spelling and reading too! I have been watching your daily work online and can see that some of you have been giving them a try. Keep up the great work!
If you have forgotten any of your passwords drop me an email on SBoyce@st-barbaras.n-lanark.sch.uk and I’ll send them to you. I’m here all day.
Today show off your Spanish skills to someone at home, your numbers, days of the week and months of the year to start.
Take care and make sure you have plenty of breaks.
Mrs Boyce x 🌈🌈
Good Morning Primary 3,
I hope you are all doing well and keeping busy with your learning grids. Keep an eye on Sumdog today as I will be setting a challenge for you all to complete. Remember you can access hit the button to revise your multiplication and division facts. Tweet me your score as we might just find a new class champion!
Today is our Taught Writing day so why not choose a writing task from your grid if you haven’t already.
Remember to have plenty of breaks and have fun too. Keep smiling and take care!
