Hello Primary 5,

I have attached a timetable of some super live learning events that you might be interested in. Please have a look as there are so many amazing lessons available.  Live Lessons 

Mrs H x

Good morning boys and girls.  I hope you are all well.

How did you all get on with your new phoneme sound yesterday? did you manage to practise the sound and think of some ‘wh’ words?…great!!

Today you are going to learn 3 new common words.  They are;

out

now

new

These are tricky words because you cant sound them out.  you just need to try to remember what they look like.

Writing the words down also helps you to remember what the words look like and how to spell them.

So, firstly you need to write each common word out 3 times, just the way you do it in class.

Now you can write them as pyramid words, like this   

Now boys and girls I would like you to write a sentence using each new common word.

Remember to put a capital letter at the start of your sentence, a full stop at the end and finger spaces between all of your words.

Remember to try and sound out your words but it is absolutely fine to ask for help.  Remember… Its ok not to know but its not ok not to try!!

If you have magnetic letters at home you can make the words again or make them using chalk, paint, pasta, wool or anything else you want.

Reading

Now boys and girls you need to go back to the book you were reading yesterday.

Try to read the book to your mum or dad.  Sound out the words you don’t know and remember to use the pictures to help you to read the story.

Now I would like you to talk to someone about what happens at the beginning of the story, what happens in the middle of the story and what happens at the end of the story.

Now its time for you to draw a picture of the beginning, a picture of the middle and a picture of the end of the story.  Below each picture you have to write 1 sentence to say what is happening.  Just like this.

Number

Ok boys and girls are you ready for some maths work? Great!!

First of all I want you to count and clap to 30, now count and clap from 30 all the way back to 0.

Now can you count in 2’s all the way to 20.

Count in 5’s all the way to 50.

Well Done!!

Now its time to write your numbers from 0-30.  you can use a pencil, pen, crayons or markers but you need to remember to have all your numbers facing the right way!!

Now you are going to practise adding up to 20 in lots of different ways.  Here are some games for you to play.

Just follow this link. and enjoy.

I hope you enjoyed your power point yesterday.  How many different kinds of fruit did you manage to think of?  How many different kinds of activities could you think of to keep you fit and healthy at home?

Today we are going to do a yoga activity.  We know that yoga is good for your body and its good for your mind too.  It helps you to stay healthy and improves your focus and concentration.

Your cosmic kids yoga activity today is Frozen. Enjoy!!

We are all special and we are all unique.

Spring flowers can teach lessons about ourselves

A spring bouquet is special because it is so colourful, and because all the flowers have such different shapes. They’re a lot like people. Some of us are gifted artists; others are gifted in singing or friendliness. Others are builders; some are good leaders. Some are quiet, gentle children. But God makes us all. Just like it takes red, yellow, purple and orange blooms to make a spring bouquet – some cascading and some standing straight up – it takes all sorts to make our world go around. We should appreciate everyone’s gifts and talents, not just our own!

Can you draw a spring bouquet with lots of different shapes and colours, each flower you draw can represent one of your friends or family.

When you have finished your picture you can put it on the fridge door or on a wall for everyone to enjoy!!.

 Here is a spring bouquet to inspire you.

I hope you all have a good day.

Remember you don’t have to do everything, only what you can manage.

Take care.

Good Morning Primary 3,

I hope you are all safe and well. What a beautiful morning it is today. If you are able, it may be nice to get out for a nice walk with an adult or for some sunshine in the garden. It is so important to keep ourselves healthy and active at this time.

Well done for your hard work yesterday. I was so impressed with all the examples I received. Please continue to get in touch as I love looking at your wonderful work. Please remember that you do not have to complete every single task each day as much as you can manage is absolutely fine. It is important to take lots of breaks throughout the day.

I have prepared some work for you today, just click the links below.

Reading lesson

Spelling activity

Numeracy lesson

When you have completed your work remember there is a brand new grid. You can choose one or two tasks to complete as a further challenge.

In the afternoon here is a nice spring art activity for you to try inspired by this beautiful weather.

Art Tuesday

Remember to continue to pray throughout the day. You may even say the prayer you wrote yesterday to thank God for looking after us at this time and to ask him to look after anyone who is sick.

Thank you to everyone who has been in touch so far. If you have any questions at all then please get in touch at mcmullenke@st-barbaras.n-lanark.sch.uk

Stay safe!

Miss McMullen x

Good morning everyone, I hope you had a lovely day in the sun yesterday!   Some life skills for you today, make sure you make your bed, brush your teeth and make your own cold breakfast.  I’m sure most of you can pour out some cereal and milk.  I would also like you to do one chore around the house today, it’s nice to help out your parents.  They are working hard trying to work and keep you entertained and busy.  Show them you appreciate them by helping out!

Health and Wellbeing

Begin your day with some exercise or yoga.

Jump start Johnny on you tube is super fun and a great way to begin your day.  Also, Oti Mabuse is still offering dance classes at 11.30 each day, this week the theme is Pop, have a go!

Don’t forget to use your yoga poses and breathing which you learned last term, to take some time out to relax throughout the day!

Literacy

Continue to add more phoneme words to your lists and choose 3 new words to write out 3 times and a sentence for each.

I have attached a punctuation worksheet for you to try.

Punctuation worksheet

Parents: There are two worksheets. The first is the task being asked and the second is a challenge for those wanting to expand their learning.  You and your child can make the choice which one to complete.

Numeracy

Recite your 3,4,5 and 6 times tables today.

https://www.topmarks.co.uk/maths-games/hit-the-button

Use the above website to play your favourite game – Hit the button.  Choose the times table you want to practise and go!!

Continue from yesterday with rounding to the nearest 10 and 100.  I have attached the following worksheet.  This does not need to be printed.  You can simply record your answers orally with an adult or write them down.

Rounding

RE

As we know, our P3 children made their reconciliation before we closed.  Continue to reflect on your attitude and behaviours towards others and if you feel the need to seek forgiveness for your actions, make time for some silent prayer time.  A Hail Mary and an Our Father together with an Act of Sorrow would be appropriate prayers.

Additional Info:

BBC bitesize are offering free lessons on a variety of subjects that might be of interest to some of you.  Simply choose your Primary and chose the lessons you want to learn about.

Updated grids are available to download for any additional tasks you may want to undertake.

Have a lovely day everyone!

Good morning Super Stars 🌟

How did you get on yesterday? I hope you enjoyed your first day back and you were able to complete some of the activities that I planned for you. It was great to see some familiar faces on our school twitter page. The pictures really made me smile!😀

Here is today’s overview:

DailyOverviewApril21st

Below I will include any additional information that will help to support your child with the tasks that I have assigned for today.

Literacy

Common Words: out, now, new 

This week the children are not able to sound out the words to help them read and write their new common words. These words are taught prior to the children exploring the relevant phonemes so for now they are treated as sight words that the children just need to learn. The best way to learn sight words is through lots and lots of repetition. Ask your child to practise writing the words and encourage them to spell the words out loud.

Writing ✍

Once your child has written their sentences ask them to check that they have included their core writing targets. They are very familiar with the symbols below.

Reading 📚 

Our school is using a new digital education resource published by Scholastic online. I will be assigning books for your child to read each week.  Every pupil in our class has been assigned their own login details. Please send me an email and I will be able to give you, your child’s username and password so that they can access their reading books. I will also give you step by step instructions on how to access this resource online.

Good morning Primary 5,

Let’s begin our day with a prayer:

Lord, we thank you for our healthcare systems and those who work in them. We pray for all healthcare workers that through their love and compassion, those who are vulnerable and needy might come to know healing and peace in their lives. We pray for those who have to make difficult decisions about resources or treatments that they will do so with care and integrity. Lord, continue your ministry of healing in the lives of those who are broken, vulnerable and in need.  Amen.

I hope that you are awake and ready to learn. Let’s start the day by putting on our dancing shoes getting our bodies moving:
