P5/6 Tuesday 9th June

Thank you all for the personal projects you have been working on – the ones I have seen are really good. Please continue with these. The ones that you have done: try and up-level them> Use Self Assessment. Use two stars and a wish. To challenge yourself even more create more wishes! You could also extend this into a writing activity where you explain your reasoning. And you could add images to in-corporate art, doing it on the computer will help support your ICT skills: PowerPoint; Word; Publisher; (Paint?). Have fun with it and use your imagination!

Maths: Finish money first and then move onto measure. I think all 4 parts of TJay 2a Chapter 13 (a,b,c and d) are useful. This will help support your work on decimals to 3 places. If you have finished these you could do TJay 2a revision work on decimals: Chapters 5 and 7

  TJay 1b TJay 2a TJay 2b
Money Chapter 7 Chapter 8 Chapter 7
Measure Chapter 15 Chapter 13a,b,c and d Chapter 13

I also don’t think anyone has finished “Education City”. I have had a look through it and you all seem to have activities still to do. I think I will add some more literacy based. If you find any of the activities challenging please do ask me for support.

Have you done all of Mrs Lockharts work?

Exercise with Joe. Do Bitesize.

I have reduced the amount of work that I am posting: I am trying to make it more focused. Please let me know any thoughts.

Take care!

 

 

Primary One – Tuesday 9th June 2020

Good Morning Everyone! I hope you are all well and ready to learn.

Sunny Happy Tuesday Gif Pictures, Photos, and Images for Facebook ...

Some new learning tasks for you to complete. Enjoy!

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 and sentences

S.C. I can write the sound igh

For this sound we go back to Inky’s Vowel House. This sound can be found in the middle part of the house at the top, it lives in the oval window. The story behind this sound is that a sailor lives there and shouts “Aye, Aye captain, “igh” (salute towards the eye) I’ll climb up to look out for land!” 

Can your practice saying the sound? It sounds as if you are saying “aye”. Can you use your blending skills to read the words below?

n – igh – t       l – igh – t            t – igh -t      m – igh – t        f-  igh – t           f – l – igh – t

r – igh -t      b – r – igh – t         s – igh – t       h – igh       th – igh

How many sentences can you create from the igh words above?

L.I. to write sentences about a picture

S.C. I can use capital letters, full stops and finger spaces

S.C. I can self-assess my work by reading it over to check it makes sense

For this activity I would like you to go the section in your home learning pack which is titled Writing Activities and find the sheet that says “What can you see at the beach? Look at the picture and write as many sentences as you can about the picture. Try to make your sentences as interesting as you can!

Activity 4 – Numeracy Stock Photos And Images - 123RF  Number Talks

L.I. to tell the number of objects in a set quickly and without counting them

S.C. I can show the steps I took to solve a problem

S.C. I can explain why I did it the way I did

Remember Number Talks are all about how you solve a task mentally. For this activity, don’t use anything to help you, just your brain!

How many dots do you see in the 2 frames and how many more to make 20? – Top Tip Remember to use doubles and near doubles to help you.

Doubles/Near doubles: Number Sentences

Can you answer the number sentences below using double/near double strategy?

2 + 2 =                               4 + 4 =

2 + 3 =                               4 + 3 =

3 + 3 =                               3 + 3=

3+ 4 =                               3 + 4 =

You could also have a go at the Spring Lines of Symmetry from your learning pack. Something is symmetrical when it is the same on both sides. A shape has symmetry if a central dividing line (a mirror line) can be drawn on it, to show that both sides of the shape are exactly the same.

Activity 5 – Random Acts of Wildness

Today’s challenge       Research any

wildflowers you see- what are they called, what do they look like? How many wildflowers can you find. A good way to draw or record your daily Random Acts of Wildness and how they made you feel might be on a planner such as the one below. Why not try to make one?

I hope you all have a great day, remember tomorrow is Wellness Wednesday so look out for activities from Mrs Wallace and Mrs Stewart.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Happy Tuesday Primary 1/2! 09.06.20

Good Morning Everyone!

Happy Tuesday! I hope everybody had a great Monday and you are ready for all of Tuesday’s home learning tasks.

Reading

This week we have been reading ‘Painting the loft’ to access the book log into oxford Owls e-books, https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/       username deans12   password   mrsstevenson

For today’s task you can either choose an activity from your guided reading home learning pack or complete the activity below.

Find the missing word.

Read the sentence and can you think about what word fits in, you can use the online book to help you.

  1. The children __________ to see Gran.
  2. “We can _______ some _______ “said Gran.
  3. “I have a ______ in the roof “________ Gran.
  4. They ________ up ____ steps.
  5. Gran ____ some cans of _______.

Finally, for a bit of fun have a go at reading and shouting out the common words at your screen.

There are 25 words included above. Did any of you struggle with any of them? Why not choose the ones that were super tricky, write them out and practise reading and writing them. You don’t have to use paper and a pencil, there are lots of different ways you can practise – chalk on the pavement outside, using flowers to spell out the word or even use lego. Can you think of any inventive ways?

Phonics

Yesterday I introduced the new sound wh, here is a little clip to remind you all about the new sound.

I have added another game to our home learning section of Education city called ‘White Whiskers’ , this game will help you practise reading wh words.

Have a go at the consolidation task for wh below. Crack the code to work out what the wh word is.

Good luck – I hope you can crack the code!

Numeracy and Maths

Here are your daily ten for today. Remember to think about which tool/strategy you are using to help you solve the calculation.

  1. 20 – 20 =
  2. 15 – 0 =
  3. 10 – 4 =
  4. 15 -1 =
  5. 20 – 0 =
  6. 12- 2 =
  7. 10 – 5 =
  8. 5 – 3 =
  9. 14 – 4 =
  10. 6 – 4 =

Number Talks

Below are a selection of dot patterns, your job is to simply say how you see them, just like we would do in class. How many different ways can you make the target number? Don’t forget to use all the correct symbols in the proper place.

 

I have added another addition and subtraction game to help consolidate these skills – it’s called ‘How we Roll’. 

The Wildlife Trust has set up a challenge called 30 Wild Days, follow the link  – https://www.wildlifetrusts.org/wildness  to check it out. It has lots of ideas for super activities you can take part in outdoors to help/build awareness of wildlife in your local area.  Why not join in with A Random Act of Wildness – here is the activity for today.

If you are struggling with how to draw a flower, here is a little guided drawing tutorial to help you…

It’s bye for now boys and girls, I hope you enjoyed all of today’s tasks. Tomorrow will be Wellbeing Wednesday so I will be back on the blog on Thursday. Stay safe and have fun!

Deans Den- Tuesday 9th June

Good Morning!! I hope you are all safe and well. Yesterday was World Ocean Day, so I thought we could look at the different ways we could look after the ocean and the many creatures who live there. Ask a grown up to show you the powerpoint about ways of looking after the ocean and then maybe you could draw a detailed picture of you and your family helping to save the Ocean!!

What Can You See World Oceans Day PowerPoint

I have attached a craft activity which you might like to try, Mrs Morrison is going to try this at home!! Enjoy and I will check in with you all on Thursday.

It’s Monday! Primary 1/2 08.06.20

Good Morning Everyone! 

Good Morning Boys and Girls, I hope that you all had a fabulous weekend, are safe, happy and healthy, and of course ready for another week of home learning tasks. Hopefully your new packs will be ready soon, we are having a few technical issues!!

PE

Let’s start off the week by moving our bodies. I have been trying really hard to do more exercise, whether it’s walking my dogs, going on a bike ride with my little boy or even a run. It really is a great way to help lift your mood and help you feel great!

Let’s join in with Joe Wicks for half an hour of movement. Can you convince an adult to join in with you? Follow the link to his Youtube channel.

https://www.youtube.com/user/thebodycoach1

Music/Singing

Let’s have a Monday Morning assembly with the Fischy Music crew, follow the link to the Youtube channel and join in. It is also known that singing out loud can help put you in a good mood, so let’s go. Maybe you will recognise some of the songs from the one’s which we practise in class.

Reading

Last week we looked at two different types of book, fiction  and  non-fiction. Today we are going to read another fiction book. Log into Oxford Owls ebooks – https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/for-home/find-a-book/library-page/                 username – deans12       password   mrsstevenson

We are going to have a go at reading ‘Painting the Loft’ 

Before reading, explore the front and back cover, make a prediction about what you think may happen in the story and look through the pictures of the book to discuss what is happening on each page.

With the help of an adult, read through the story remembering to using strategies to help you read any words which you find challenging. Can you remember the strategies we have used in class?

  • Use the picture for a clue
  • Read around the word
  • Look at the individual sounds in the word
  • Can you see a word in a word

As you read through the book, copy down any words which you are finding challenging. Why not make your own word wall to practise reading those tricky words?

There are 2 online games to go with this story – game one focuses on making a rhyming pair and game two focuses on labelling a picture. Good luck and have fun!

Finally,  have a go at the Educationcity game ‘Match me if you can’

Phonics

The new sound for this week is ‘wh’

wh is a red sound, we make this sound using our lips. Have a look in the mirror as you say the sound, look at your lips and what they do.

Here is Geraldine to help us.

Can you name all the wh words in the pictures below?

Have a go at spelling these words. Have an adult read them out to you. Listen carefully to the sounds you hear and draw some pictures to go with your words.

wh -ee -l         wh -i -s -k       wh-i-s-p-er     wh-i-ch    wh -e- n

whe-r-e

French

In  class we did a little bit of work on learning the colours of the rainbow in French. Have a listen to the following song, some of the colours are pronounced very similar to how we would say them in English.

Now have a go at colouring in the French rainbow colours sheet, I have attached it below also there is a copy in your last home learning packet.

french rainbow colours

Numeracy and Maths

Here are your daily ten for today. For this week, let’s have another focus on subtraction. Can you remember the strategies we can use to help us?

  • Draw a picture
  • Use concrete materials (cubes/rubbers/pencils)
  • Use a number line
  • Use our fingers

Make sure you place the symbols in the correct place if you are writing out the whole calculation. This week we are going to challenge ourselves by working with slightly larger numbers.

  1.  10 – 4 =
  2.  13 -1 =
  3. 7 – 4 =
  4. 14 -3 =
  5. 20-10 =
  6. 15-5 =
  7. 10 -2=
  8. 17 -0 =
  9. 10 -5=
  10. 14-14 =

Today I thought I would set you some challenge cards to use outside. I would love to see some pictures of your work.

Good luck with all of your home learning tasks for today. I will be back on the blog tomorrow, enjoy the rest of your day.

Mrs Stevenson
