Good morning P2!

Hello again boys and girls.

It was lovely to see you all yesterday and I really was impressed with how grown up and sensible you all were. There were a lot of new things to remember and you tried so hard to make sure we were being as safe as possible. Well done!

Here are a few wee activities you might want to do today while you are at home.

Task 1

Listen to the story Grumpy Frog by Ed Vere.

After you have watched the story, talk to a grown up about your favourite part. Which bit did you like and why? Do you ever feel grumpy? What do you think might happen to the frog after the story?

You could draw a detailed picture and try to write a sentence or a word to help describe what you have drawn.

Task 2

Can you take a walk or go into your garden with an adult and play eye spy? What did you spy?

How many animals can you find?

Count how many different things you spied? (Make this trickier by counting in 2s, for example. You could add or take away objects as well).

Task 3

Count how many star jumps you can do in 1 minute.

How many hops can you do in 1 minute?

Task 4

Find stones or twigs and write your name or some of our common words from last year.

Remember, Mrs Gorman is in tomorrow but I am already looking forward to seeing you all again next Wednesday.

P2 Transition Booklet

Good morning new P2s!

I hope you are all feeling excited about coming back in August but I’m sure some of you are probably feeling a little nervous as well. This is completely normal! To help you feel a little less worried, I have attached a P2 transition booklet. It has lots of information and pictures about next year. Hopefully it will help you feel a bit better.

We are really looking forward to seeing you all again in August. Have a wonderful summer everyone!

 

Learning activities for P2 week beginning 22.06.20

Good morning P2,

We have now came to the last week of term before the summer holidays. I have attached a Literacy learning grid for this week. Instead of a learning grid for maths, this week I have attached different worksheets to practise shape, measure, time and angles.

I hope you enjoy the activities and I look forward to seeing photos of you doing your learning activities, send them to wlfallahill-ps@westlothian.org.uk

Library Information – new e-Books and e-Audio books

Every child in West Lothian can be a West Lothian library member and that is exactly what the libraries endeavour to do – engage with and register as many children as possible.  If your child is not already a library member and you are interested in their child becoming a library member then they can simply complete the online application here: http://bit.ly/Join-WL-libraries. After completion you will be sent the child’s membership information and will have access to our digital resources and all of our libraries when we reopen.

During the lockdown they have significantly increased the collection of children’s e-Books and e-Audio books.  These can be accessed here: https://bit.ly/WLlibebooksChildren

They also have also purchased e-Books and e-audio books which allow multiple downloads, so there are no waiting lists for these.  The latest addition is Flying Fergus, The Great Cycle Challenge by Sir Chris Hoy and this can be accessed here: https://bit.ly/FlyingFergusTgcc

The e-audio books are particularly good for younger children providing them with their own personal story times, often with famous actors or even the authors themselves narrating.

If you require any assistance on the use of these resources or library membership applications please do not hesitate to contact the libraries at this email – library.info@westlothian.gov.uk
