Yoga and Mindfulness Challenge
Good Afternoon P2!
Mrs Anderson has prepared a 30 day yoga and mindfulness challenge for you all to take part in! Give it a go and see how you get on!
Lucy reads her favourite book for a little while.
Lucy is having a blue day!
This time last year we had a visit from the author Chris Duke, who wrote the story “Lucy’s Blue Day” .
It is about a little girl whose hair changes colour depending on her mood.
One day she wakens up and discovers her hair is blue and she doesn’t know why ….
Well our wee Lucy is feeling a bit blue now too – especially as she has to stay at home all day! Perhaps you can write a story about how Lucy keeps busy or write her a letter to cheer her up and suggest what she can do ! Maybe you could post it on your class TEAMS page?
Follow Lucy’s adventures here each day!
#it’s ok not to be ok
Reading for enjoyment!
Remember that now is a great time to be gathering all your books together and reading your favourite ones again!
We usually have quiet times to read as part of our day in school.
Perhaps you can include this in your day at home?

Good Morning Primary 1/2
Good Morning Everybody!
Have a go at teaching an adult our welcome song, don’t forget the actions too.
I hope everybody is working through the week 1 activities and consolidating all of our learning and having some fun too!
Yesterday I made a cake with my little boy and if you have the ingredients available I would thoroughly recommend doing some home baking. It’s a great way to practise all the measuring you have been working on with Mrs Lockhart and of course you get a tasty treat at the end of it all!!
This is the recipe I used…

This is the finished cake! It’s a bit wonky but we tried our best. Have a go yourself and take some pictures of the finished masterpiece, you could even write out some of your own instructions on how you made it!
Lets have a go a learning a new sound…..
The sound for this week is ‘oa’ . If you remember, this sound can be found in Inky’s vowel house. It is a black tunnel sound and our lips stay round when making this sound. See below for the story which goes with this sound. A good little reminder to help you with the sound is ‘when two vowels go walking the first one does the talking’.. you say the first sounds alphabet name and the second sound is not pronounced.
Below is the Jolly Jingle for this sound…just for fun!
Once you have got to grips with making and saying this sound, here are a few activities you can have a go at to help you consolidate. If you have a printer, you can print them out or simply just display them on your screen and use your jotters to complete the task.
I hope everybody has a good day.

Primary One Update
Good morning everyone I hope you are all safe and well and enjoying working through week one’s activities. I am going to post some new activities for you to try. The children will need some support and guidance and I am grateful for your continued help at this time.
Activity One – new sound ee
Some useful background information. The children are familiar with Inky’s vowel house.
The ee sound comes from the poor donkey in the first window who has a sore throat. He can only say “ee”. The learning intention and success criteria for this lesson and similar to others in the vowel house –
L.I. – to understand that two letters can make 1 sound.
S.C. I can say the sound to match the letter shape
S.C. I can blend this sound with other sounds to read words
S.C. I can spell words with this sound.
It would be a good idea to have the ee sound written on separate pieces of card or paper and individual sounds on other pieces of paper or card. The children can practice saying the ee sound and blending it with others to make words e.g. b ee, f ee t, s ee d, m ee t, n ee d etc. It may help to write the words or make a little snap or bingo game to help reinforce that 2 letters can make 1 sound and that sounds can be blended with others to create words. Once they have become more confident recognizing and using words with the ee sound they could go on to use them in a sentence (another good way to check understanding).
Activity Two
Count a collection of objects to 10 or 20. Use this knowledge to estimate the number of objects in a larger group. Then count and check.
Continue to practice doubles and near doubles (yesterdays post) use your jotter to support your thinking if you need to.
Activity Three – What can you do in 1 minute?
Have a great day and stay safe!
