A special North Lanarkshire Sumdog competition begins today. We qualified last time and finished 40th overall thanks to amazing performances by Dylan, Safeia, Olivia D, Harris, Olivia C, Niall and Shay. They were our only class members who completed the competition.
More people in our class took part than in any other class but because only 7 of us finished 4 other classes finished higher than we did on the Leaderboard.
Primary 1b beat us by 5 places!
For spelling this week I want to look at another spelling rule.
The sound ‘sh’ represented by ‘ci’.
Some words use ‘ti’ to make ‘sh’. Words like station, nation or education.
When a longer word is formed from a root word, however, the ‘sh’ sound is represented by ‘ci’.
It’s the day of your spelling test. Give this list of words to someone in your family and ask them to test your knowledge.
Today I want to give you a writing task. I’m going to give you some headlines from local newspapers. I want you to pick one and write the article that accompanied them:
Local Police Hunt Seagull Thief
Missing Chair Found Up Tree
Police Close Pub After Domino Riot
Fury Erupts Over Noisy Gate
Dream Wedding Ruined by Angry Duck
Cursed Toilet Strikes Again
‘Hooligan’ Granny Terrifies Sailors

Today’s maths will be Sumdog. The competition begins today and is on for a week. It is only for North Lanarkshire schools, so let’s try and get up there on the leaderboard.
This will be our last blog as there will be new updated grids for you to use from next week until end of term We (teachers) are back in school from Monday trying to organise the classrooms and learning for your return in August. This has been a very strange and surreal time with lots of learning, both for you and us, online. We have really missed teaching the last term with you, you all made such great progress and we were looking forward to seeing you develop. Mrs Boyce and I miss you very much and can’t wait to see your wee faces again. Make sure you still access these blogs for your daily RE and Health & Wellbeing as well as any other important messages.
You have a few more tasks to complete today and then you can enjoy a well deserved break. You have continued to amaze me this week with all of your wonderful work!👏
Let’s get started on today’s 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.
Yesterday I sent an email to all of your parents. I have a very special mission that I would like you to complete. Have a little look at the email for more details.

Remember to show off your lovely smiles.

Sumdog Competition
Sumdog have launched a new contest for North Lanarkshire primary schools.
It begins today, the 5th of June and will end on Thursday 11th June.
Last month our class finished in 35th place out of 316 classes. What an amazing achievement Primary 1b. Our Class Champion was Chloe! Amazing!
Let’s try and see if we can get higher up the leader board in this competition. I believe in you all, I know we can do it! Who will be crowned our Class Champion in this contest?
Remember, in order to qualify, we need a minimum of 10 people to take part in our class. 15 people in our class played last time which was amazing! Let’s try and see if we can get all 19 players this time. You can do it boys and girls.
Your Maths task for today is to log on to Sumdog and take part in this amazing contest.
Good luck! Take your time and give it your best shot Primary 1b. I am rooting for you all!

Literacy
Reading:
For reading today I would like you to chose a book you enjoy and read it quietly to yourself. When you have completed your book you can fill out the book review below. Remember you do not have to print out the sheet as you can just answer the questions in your jotter.
Friday is usually our spelling test day. I would like you to choose 5 phoneme words from this week and test yourself. To do this you can read, cover, write and check the words in your jotter. This is just like the way we do it in class.
Grammar and Punctuation:
Can you remember when we looked at putting words into alphabetical order?
Have a look at the power point below to remind yourself what this means. It will give you some challenges along the way that you can complete in your jotter.
I will post answers and suggested strategies at 3:00pm today.
For our main numeracy task today we are going to be taking part in a Sumdog competition.
This is a North Lanarkshire competition for primary schools.
To qualify we need all of our class to log on a play.
Good luck!!
