Good Morning Room 13!  Welcome to Week 2 of online learning!

Thank you for all your amazing work last week… it’s great to see you all doing such a variety of tasks at home!  Have a look at the blog post below to see what everyone got up to last week 🙂

*Reminder there will be another Tuesday Challenge uploaded at 10am… so keep your eyes peeled!*

Again, try to use your weekly timetable template to plan your week and the activities you want to complete.  My aim for this week is to read three chapters of The Explorer and do the Joe Wicks PE three times!

I have uploaded a worksheet for each Maths group, as well as a variety of other tasks for you to choose from.  If you are struggling to remember how to complete your step for maths, send me an email and I will record a video, talking through the step and send it over to you.

You will need to open this up on a device that has Word.  I have also emailed a copy to you.  You can access this through your Glow email.

Our focus for HWB this week is making sure we are sharing love and positivity with everyone, even though we are staying home!  I have walked past so many houses, where pupils have put pictures of rainbows in there front window.  Therefore if you are out on a walk, try and look out for one!  I would love you to create your own rainbow picture and put the word Room 13 on it!  I am making mine this week and will share it with you before Friday.

• Room 13 Rainbow Pictures (take a photo of yourself with your rainbow in the window!)
• Watch Newsround each day
• Two tasks around the house to help out your family

• Continue with Presidents Presentation
• Create a mind map about topics / questions you still have about the USA that you would like to research.
• Research the term ‘USA Melting Pot’ and gather some research about the different ethnicity’s in America.

• Joe Wicks PE on Youtube (I am aiming to do this 3 times this week!)
• Create an obstacle course in your garden and try to time yourself and see if you can beat your original time!
• Active School South Lanarkshire are uploading a PE challenge every Monday, Wednesday and Friday on Twitter.  Friday’s challenge was a basketball challenge.  Get a boasket/box and 10 pairs of socks, take 10 steps back and see how many you can score.
• Here is my attempt!  Now NYLA got in the way but I still managed 9/10… who can beat my score?

Extra Information:

• Remember these activities are only suggestions!  You can choose tasks from last week or continue making up your own.
• Try to do one maths, one literacy and one PE activity EVERY DAY.
