Calling all Pupils in P4 and p4/3…
Snowflakes might fall from the sky,
And if they do here is stuff that you can try,
Take out your snow jotters and get onto Glow,
Click on these links, don’t be slow!
You will find games, challenges and worksheets too,
Become one of the online working crew
Look on here to see your learning hooks
So let’s get started, get out your books!
Writing
Create a story about when Santa got stuck up your chimney. In your jotters, plan around the 5 ‘W’s’: Who, What, Where, Why and When. Remember to include;

• Explain what you are going to do to help Santa save Christmas and include reasons for your decisions (why?)

• Remember to include 3 paragraphs for your; beginning, middle and end.
Imagine you get trapped inside a snow globe. Write about what you would do if you had to live inside as if you couldn’t get out. Remember to include the 5 ‘W’s’ and paragraphs as described above.
