Good Morning Primary 5 and Happy new year!!
I am very sad that we are not all in the classroom together this morning but I am hopeful that we will all be back together soon. We have done this once before and we can do it again!
Please find an introductory video to our home learning on our google classroom. In this video I discuss home learning this time around and also our first literacy task of today. If you have any issues finding this please email me gw18galvinemma@glow.sch.uk.
We are going to be having Google Meets once or twice a week. This weeks will be on Wednesday at 10am. Please make sure you sign in on the daily register each day on Google Classroom.
Health and Wellbeing: I have posted a link to Joe Wicks youtube channel where you will find his live workouts everyday. These are a fantastic way to get us moving and start our day off right. Doing a workout in the morning can help you feel energised and ready to start your home learning on a positive note. https://www.youtube.com/c/TheBodyCoachTV/videos.
Numeracy:
Task 1:
Today we are going to be doing some place value and addition and subtraction work just to get our minds ready for learning after the Christmas holidays.
Circles: Your first task is looking at the place value of 6 digit numbers. For example the number 593, 016 (five hundred and ninety three thousand and sixteen). In this number the 5 stands for five-hundred thousand (500,000), the 9 stands for ninety thousand (90,000), the 3 stands for three thousand (3000), the 1 stands for ten (10) and the 6 stands for six (6).
Diamonds: Your first task is looking at the place value of 4 digit numbers. For example in the number 3116 the 3 stands for three thousand (3000), the 1 stands for one-hundred (100), the 1 stands for ten (10) and the 6 stands for six (6).
Task 2:

Numeracy Addition and subtraction
Remember the mental addition skills we practice in class, all questions should be completed mentally. If you have any questions or issues with this please either post on google classroom or email me.
Each worksheet has answers attached please self-correct your work and I will also provide feedback for each piece.
Your last task for today is to think about your new years resolutions. A fresh year is a fresh start for lots of people. I would like you to think about your goals for this year. Is your goal to continue the positive things you were doing last year this could be being kind to others, helping your parents. They could be goals such as health and fitness goals are you trying to eat healthier or exercise more. Whatever your goal be make sure your resolution is a positive one that you will aim to keep up during 2021. I would also like you to draw a picture of your new year’s resolution, this could be on paper or on Google Draw you can find this on Google Classroom -> Google Docs -> blank -> insert drawing -> new. It’s the same place that we done our Christmas cards.
