Let’s get ourselves woken up with some PE with Joe!
For literacy this morning we are going to do some more work on the phonics and spelling sounds you learned yesterday.
First, Please log into your Studyladder account and complete the tasks that are assigned to you.
Then, I would like you to create a model of something related to the sound you have been learning about. So P1’s, you could choose something that starts with ‘p’, for example panda. P3’s and P7’s you could choose something that has ‘ee’ as the middle or end sound, for example bee or sweet. You can create your model out of anything you like… Lego, play dough, junk from the recycling or anything else you can think of! I cannot wait to see your creations!
Lastly, let’s have some chill time and enjoy another story time with David Walliams:
At 11am, please tune into the Fischy Music virtual assembly:
Then it’s Numeracy Time!
Today we are learning about Volume:
Now, log onto Study Ladder and have a go at your assigned tasks. Before lunch time, lets do our daily mile! Remember to put sun cream on before going outside and drink lots of water!
Laura and Maisie will be posting some fun activities again this afternoon, so keep an eye on the blog.
I hope you all had a lovely weekend! Its is another beautiful day! Let’s start our day with PE with Joe!
Now it is time for Phonics and Spelling.
P1’s – you will be learning the ‘p’ sound today! The action for ‘p’ is holding your finger in front of your mouth and blowing it out like a candle:
Let’s start by singing the Jolly Phonics Songs. Pay extra attention to the song for ‘p’:

Next look inside your Jolly Phonics booklet and on the ‘p’ page, draw 4 pictures of things starting with ‘p’. Underneath, practice writing ‘p’ and on the other side practice writing your ‘p’ words.
P3’s and P7’s – today you are learning the ‘ee’ sound. The action for ‘ee’ is to make donkey ears with your hands and when they are pointing up you say ‘ee’ and when they are pointing down you say ‘or’:
Let’s start by singing the Jolly Phonics song:
Now, inside your pack you will find your ‘Long Vowel Sound E’ booklet (E Vowel). Please complete the first 3 pages.
I’ll be back just before 11am with the details to log onto today’s Virtual Assembly with Fischy Music!
Please have a look at the assembly presentation from this week’s assembly. Can you spot your own picture? Can you spot work that your friends or buddies have been working on? There is information going onto Twitter and the blog later today about the INspire challenges and scavenger hunt challenges set by Miss Anderson and one of our P6 pupils! I hope you all enjoy getting involved with these over the weekend. Stay safe everyone!
For health and wellbeing today we are going to be focussing on being healthy. I know you have all been keeping your body healthy by doing your PE with Joe every morning so today we are going to be thinking about keeping our minds and hearts healthy.
I want you to go onto Storyberries website and read the story called ‘The Inside Book’ by Mathew Griffiths:
This story focusses on the different feeling you may have about Covid-19. Please spend some time talking about how you feel or have felt during Lockdown.
Now, I would like you to draw a picture to show your boldest memory of Lockdown. Write a sentence or two underneath to describe this memory. Think about what you have been doing while at home and how you have felt. Remember boys and girls, it is so important to talk to others about your feelings. Remember that there are always people who want to help you when you are feeling down. I would like to take another opportunity to thank all of the parents and carers for all your hard work supporting the children throughout this difficult time. You are doing a great job everyone and we miss you all so much!
First, let’s talk about stars… Where and when will you see them? Use this as an opportunity to enrich your language and to
have conversations.
Now we are going to learn some facts about stars. Using the internet, can you find out a new fact about stars. Write down your fact in your jotter.
Next, make your own stars. You can do this any way you like. You can draw a picture or do some cutting and sticking or you could even use a star shaped cutter to make stars out of play dough or biscuit dough.
Why not create your own rocket ship to fly to the stars? You could make this from old boxes, plastic containers, scrap materials and other bits and bobs you can find. Cutting, creating, designing, imagining and inventing are all great learning opportunities. Where will your rocket ship travel to? Will there be a count down… 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, blast off?
Your last task is to write a short story about your journey into space on the rocket ship you have created. I cannot wait to see what you make at home this morning!
