Good morning boys and girls!
I hope you all had a lovely bank holiday weekend!
I have set new online tasks in Studyladder this week but there are other tasks listed below. I am also going to be setting tasks through Microsoft Teams, so log in to Teams and have a look around, you can even send me messages and pictures of your work on Teams!
I am still trying to photograph different birds in my garden for our challenge but it is proving difficult as it seems to be the same types of birds that are visiting my garden, so I might take my camera with me on my walk with the dogs! Keep an eye on our Identify the Bird challenge page as I will add to it whenever I have a new picture.
However, I saw something in my garden the other day which was fascinating and I have been trying to identify it. I have researched it and I think I know what it is but I’m not 100% sure, so I thought that you could help me!
What do you think it is?
Why not see what other insects you can spot in your garden or on your walks? You can upload your pictures in Teams. Use this Minibeasts sheet to help you.
I have also attached a colouring activity – Minibeasts Mindfulness.

Message from Miss Coyle
Good morning Primary 4/5. I just wanted to say hello and hope that you are all well at the moment. I was thinking about the amazing sock puppets you made earlier on this year and I was wondering if you still have them and if so, how are they finding lockdown? I would love to hear about that.
Miss Coyle
