Deans Den- Wednesday 6th May

Good Morning!! I hope you are all safe and well and enjoying the beautiful weather. Mrs Morrison always feels happy when the sun shines!! I hope you are working through the Deans Den booklet, have you made any of the Spring crafts?? Please send photos of your efforts to the school e-mail and I will access them from there.

Today, we are going to focus on developing our listening skills. Do you remember our whole body listening song? Here is a copy of the words, try singing the song to a grown up:

Eyes are watching,

Ears are listening

Lips are closed

Feet are quiet

Hands are still.

I have attached a copy of some listening games. Ask an adult to join in with you, enjoy!!

P3 – Friday 1st May

Happy Friday P3, I hope you are all safe and well. I hope a grown up has managed to collect your learning pack from school. Here are some additional activities for you to complete:

Science

In science, we are going to  learn about the differences between living and non-living things. What do we do that makes us living beings? Discuss your ideas with a grown up and note them down in your home learning jotter. Watch the following clip on the differences between living and non-living things and I then I would like you to design a poster highlighting the characteristics (features) of living things.

Maths

I hope you managed to complete last week’s task of measuring different objects around your home. Today, we are going to learn about the different units of measurement and how to convert m to cms. I have attached a powerpoint for you to read and then I would like you to answer questions on measuring using cm and m.

PE- Healthy Body and Mind

Yoga is a great way to help create a healthy body and mind. I have attached a link to ‘Cosmic Kids’ Yoga. Hope you find this fun but relaxing as well and maybe you could ask a grown up to join in!

Have a lovely weekend and I will check in with you next Friday.

 

 

Deans Den- Friday 1st May

Happy Friday!! I am missing our group time together, especially when you all take your turns as Lead Learners and read some of our favourite stories. The Gruffalo is definitely one of the best books by Julia Donaldson and we can all recall the story with confidence. I have attached a copy of a recipe to make a Gruffalo cake and also a link to help you make Gruffalo paw cakes. Happy baking and please send a photo of your attempts to the school e-mail for me to look at.

Have a lovely, safe weekend everyone!!

Deans Den go on a Shape Hunt!!

Morning all and happy Thursday!! I hope you are all safe and well and enjoying the learning tasks set by all of your teachers. For our maths activity today, I would like you to learn about 2d shapes. Do you already know any names of shapes? If so, tell a grown up. Shapes can be found around your home, in the garden and in your local area. Why not ask a grown up to take you on a daily walk and try to spot as many different shapes as you can?? I have attached a sheet which you could copy to record the different objects you discover. I have also added a  song which may help you with the names of the different 2d shapes. Have fun!!

Happy Wednesday everyone!! I hope you are all safe and well and managing to complete some of your home learning. Inside your Deans Den booklet there is a Spring flower hunt worksheet and maybe when you head outside for your daily exercise, you could look for some of the flowers and try to draw them! Remember to send any of your work to the school e-mail and I will access it from there.

On Wednesdays, we usually attend Mrs Anderson’s yoga class and learn about the different ways of keeping our bodies and minds healthy. I have found a clip from ‘Cosmic Yoga’ which demonstrates  yoga moves linked to one of our favourite stories, ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar’ Try it out and maybe ask some of your family members to join in!!

Deans Den- Tuesday 28th April

Good morning and I hope you are all safe and well. I hope a grown up has managed to collect your P1 learning pack from school. Inside the pack there should be a Deans Den workbook for you to explore. There are different spring activities for you to complete and why not give some of the Spring craft ideas a go!! Ask a grown up to help you.

I hope you are all managing to access oxfordowl.co.uk. I would like you to explore the story, ‘The Hedgehog’ Look at the picture clues and talk over the story with a grown up. I have attached a link of instructions on how to make a hedgehog. Give it a go and remember to send photos of your work to the school e-mail and Mrs Rodden will send them on to Mrs Morrison. Have a lovely day!!

Deans Den

Good morning all, happy Friday!! I hope you have had a lovely week with time to enjoy the beautiful weather. I am missing our time together, especially snack time when we would help each other prepare snack and talk about our day. I have found a recipe on the programme, ‘Big Cook Little Cook’ where they make a baguette bridge, linked to the tale “The Three Billy Goats Gruff, ” one of our favourite stories!! Ask a grown up to help you and if you can send a photo of your snack to the school e-mail. I would love to see your efforts!!

 

P3- Friday24th April

Good morning from Mrs Morrison!! I hope you are safe and well and enjoying the beautiful weather we have been experiencing of late. I will be posting activities every Friday covering curricular areas such as P..E, Science and Maths.

I know Mrs Hillan encourages you to participate in  Joe Wicks, The Body Coach workouts and I thought it would be a good idea to keep a fitness diary to record how often you are keeping fit and the different exercises you are completing. I have attached an example of a fitness diary, please copy into your homework jotter and complete on a daily basis.

Science

Glasgow Science Centre are conducting daily ‘virtual’ science workshops at 10am and I thought some of you budding scientists would like to watch and maybe try out their experiments. Here is the link:

https://www.glasgowsciencecentre.org/gsc-at-home

I have also attached some science challenge cards to try. I think challenge 18 ‘Dancing Raisins’ and challenge 19 ‘How to make a lava lamp’ look like fun! Try them out, but remember to get your parents permission before you do. Please send in photos of your efforts to the school email, I would love to see them!

Maths

Over the next few Fridays we are going to learn about measure. Why do you think this is an important skill to learn? Which careers need to have a good understanding of measure? Discuss your ideas with a grown up and then have some fun around the house measuring different items. Record your findings in your home learning jotter.

Enjoy the activities P3 and I will check in with you next Friday.

Deans Den

Good morning all and I hope you are ready for another day of learning. I hope you all managed to log in to oxfordowl.co.uk and access the e- books. Here is a reminder of our log in details:

click on our class login

username: deansden

password: nurture

This should take you to ‘My bookshelf’ and then the selection of books.

The book I would you to explore today is called ‘The Haircut.’ Talk with your grown ups about what happens in the story and how the story ends. Once you have finished, go to play activity one where you have to organise the story in the correct order. Use the book to help you complete the task. Good luck!!
