Good morning Primary 2! Here are some activities for you to work through today.

End of the year questions

Here are your questions for discussion today!

  1. What was your favourite book that you read this year? Why was it your favourite?
  2. What was your best piece of writing this year? What made it your best piece?

Writing

Today, I would like you to write a letter to your new teacher telling them all about yourself. Once you have completed this task, please email it to wldeans-ps@westlothian.org.uk so that I can pass it on to your Primary 3 teacher! We love to get to know everyone in our class and it would be great if you could help us do this! Please see below for a list of facts you may want to include in your letter, you could use some of these, all of these or you could even add your own! Remember to write your name at the bottom of your letter so your new teacher knows who it is from.

  • When is your birthday?
  • Do you have any siblings?
  • Do you have any hobbies?
  • Who are your friends in school?
  • What is your favourite subject at school?
  • Are there any subjects you do not like? Why do you not like them?
  • How are you feeling about coming back to school after the summerSee the source image

Art

Today’s art activity is all about using cotton buds to create summer flowers. First, you should research different types of flowers that you may like to make. Then use your imagination to create your very own flower! I have provided some examples for you below. You could stick the cotton buds on paper, you could use the tips of them to paint or you could even construct a 3D model. Send us a picture of your finished flower to wldeans-ps@westlothian.org.uk so I can see all of your fantastic creations!

See the source imageSee the source imageSee the source image

Numeracy

Have a go at playing countdown! You could use the numbers in the instructions or smaller numbers if you would like to simplify the game. See who can make the total in the least amount of time!

What you need to play:

  • 4 ‘large number’ cards with the numbers 25, 50, 75 and 100 on them
  • A set of cards with the digits 1 – 10 on them, with at least two cards for each number

How to play:

  • Step 1: Set out 4 large number cards (25, 50, 75 and 100) face down and mixed up.
  • Step 2: Do the same with the 1 – 10 cards, making sure you have at least 2 cards for each number.
  • Step 3: Players take it in turns to select one of the big number cards or one of the small number cards, until there are 6 cards laid out all together.
  • Step 4: Someone who is playing the game needs to generate a 3-digit number. This can be by throwing a dice, or selecting cards from a pile of 0 to 9 cards.
  • Step 5: Once the number has been generated, turn over the six cards and players have to try and get to that total using any of the six number cards and any of the four operations.
  • Each card can only be used once and the winner is the first person to reach the total, or the player who is closest after a set length of time.

The game can be adapted by choosing the numbers on the cards carefully and having them aiming to reach a 2-digit number, rather than a 3-digit number. 

Have a great day everyone! Remember tomorrow is the final Wellbeing Wednesday!

IDL

Continue with your Personal Project. Here is what I posted last week to remind you:

As we don’t have long until the end of term, we thought instead of starting a new topic together that you could do a mini project of your own to work on until the Summer holidays. You can pick an animal, a sport, a hobby, a type of car, a singer/group you like – anything like that, to do your own research project on. Start off using the mind map below to record what you know already about your chosen topic, then collect as many facts, information, and pictures as you can. Remember to make your facts interesting and fun! If you can print pictures that would be great, but it would also be amazing to see of your own drawings, models and creations! We can use this to share with each other when we are back to school after the Summer!

 

Art

Make a Wearable Keepsake: Decorate a T-shirt, or baseball cap, or make friendship bracelets – these could be decorated with something to do with Deans Primary or just with things you like!

 

 

Enjoy the rest of your day!!
