LI To use historical number systems – SC I can complete calculations using Roman Numerals. Look at the Roman Numerals Powerpoint Then complete the Roman Numerals Activity Sheet (Spicy=1 star, spicier=2 stars, 3 stars= spiciest).Don’t forget to mark your work.

After Break

Storytime – Listen to David Walliams . The link is live at 11am.Why not lie back and rest your eyes when you listen?https://www.worldofdavidwalliams.com/elevenses/

Literacy – Spelling

Continue to look at these exception words for P4 and P5 in the document. years-3-and-4-spelling-list. Continue where you left off last week. Read each one then practice the ‘Look, Cover, Write, and Check’ method. Keep going until you have another 8 words you found tricky. Just like last week choose some of the following methods in this document to practise spelling the words:useful spelling ideas. Remember you can return to this document whenever you want to practise your spelling.

French-(If you have time after spelling)

This was the site I introduced you to last week-  https://www.french-games.net/frenchtopicsClick on lessons at the top and choose a different area of learning that interests you. (about 20 minutes).

After Lunch

Health –Think about two role models in your life. Why
do they inspire you? If possible share your thoughts with someone at home.

Science – STEM-Ferocious Predatory Dinosaurs

Go to this link https://ed.ted.com/lessons/the-ferocious-predatory-dinosaurs-of-cretaceous-sahara-nizar-ibrahim and if you are a member work through the questions.

Brainbreak – Sit down in a silent room and focus on your
breathing for 5 minutes.

Art-Squiggle art-Watch the video first then have a go at your own squiggle art: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EU1UmcDfHM0

Once you have had a go at this why not try squiggle birds-watc this video first! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vK3yQBouzNs

Finally if there is someone at home that can draw with you this is a great game-watch the video then have a go if you have a partner-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqfpaiakdrE

If you have time try the game more than once-taking it in turns to lead the other person.

Before you go-This explains how the author Jaqueline Wilson is inspired by art https://www.tate.org.uk/kids/explore/kids-view/jacqueline-wilsons-magical-tour-tate-britain

P5/6 Friday 15th May 

Fun Friday! 

I hope you all know how the systems work now: if not please look at some of the old “Daily Plans” or ask me on Teams. The use of Teams went really well last week, thank you. I have tidied up “Files” a bit more and, I think, made it easier to use and find things. Please let me know if you have any issues with it.   

I want us to spend some time reflecting on the learning we have done in all areas of the curriculum in P5/6. What have we done? Try to make a list in a word document with your name as part of the title (eg “Joe H Learning in P56”) and up-load it into the new folder “Learning in P56”. Try to not focus on Maths and Literacy, but all the other areas. 

Spelling activity: choose a list of Fry’s words that is appropriate for yourself. Create a Word document with a table of 2 columns and 25 rows. Write your chosen 25 words in the first column. Using a dictionary, on-line or book, put a definition of the word in the second column next to it. I have created an example to support you if you are not sure how to do this. I have also created a dedicated folder in “Files” for this work. Please include your name as part of the file name to differentiate it from the others. Ethan is now an expert at “HotPotatoes” quizzes and has already made several. I am hoping that he can lead the learning and teach some of you how he did it. Please try them and tell me what you think. Here is a link https://hotpot.uvic.ca/ to where you can download the program and here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3pMWXqeqdo is a tutorial on how to use one of the applications in it. I think we could also use it for maths, possibly to help teach some of the children in the lower school, and maybe set some more challenging activities for your classmates. 

Topic –What about making a film? Do you have Windows Media Player on your computer? If not please try to download and install it. Is there any other way we could film it? Could we use telephones? What apps could we use? I have created a dedicated folder for this work in “Files” as well. 

Has everyone finished their work on money yet? If not, 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. Most of you seem to be working your ways well through this. It will help support your work on decimals to 3 places. 

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

   

Here is an additional maths resource for you all, which you might want to prepare for Monday 

https://thenationalschoolspartnership.com/4C7I-U1LL-E024F84E36/cr.aspx 

Education City: You all appear to still have quite a lot of unfinished activities so I will wait until I publish some more. 

I have created a set of folders dedicated to Mrs Lockharts work. Go back through these, making sure you have done each one.  

Keep your personal projects going- you still have the folder to post them in to. 

Logan S is growing vegetables as a health project. Ethan has also now started growing strawberries. Anyone else? 

Keep your daily diary going, recording what you are doing, what exercise you do, what you eat and how you feel. 

Continue to practise your French using the resources from the link below: https://powerlanguage.courses/forfamilies/french/ For those of you that have finished the above French resource here two more for youhttps://www.french-games.net/frenchtopics and https://www.linguascope.com/secure/default.php You will need a password for the second one, which is on the document “Linguascope confirmation”. 

Don’t forget to do the day’s activities on BBC “Bitesize”. 

Exercise with Joe (or his girlfriend!? https://www.bbc.co.uk/cbbc/joinin/bp-joe-wicks-workout 

And finally “Covid Related Activities”: please read it. 

Take care all of you and have a good weekend.

The children have had some experience with rekenreks in the classroom. Rekenreks are an important tool to help students reason about numbers, subitise, build fluency and compute using number relationships.  It’s also important to give learners an opportunity to show representations in an abstract form. An example below-

 

Have a go at the examples below- How many beads do you see and how do you see them? Draw the rekenrek pattern to show your thinking

Activity 4 – Math’s – MeasureMeasurement Clipart Png

Then carry on answer complete -draw a shorter straw and draw a longer crayon (emphasis on the language – longer/shorter)

I hope you all have a lovely weekend and remember Monday is a holiday so I will post more activities on Tuesday. Take care and stay safe!

Deans Den- Friday 15th May

 

Good Morning all and I hope you have had a good week. Did you enjoy Well- being Wednesday? I am sure you might be missing our time together in Deans Den, especially snack time. I have found a recipe on Big Cook, Little Cook where they make crispy bricks for The Three Little Pigs! They sound delicious as they are made using marshmallows. Why not ask a grown up to help you make them? Yum, Yum!! Have a super weekend and I will check in with you all next week.

 

P3- Friday 15th May

Happy Friday!! Hope you are all safe and well and have been enjoying the different learning activities provided by Mrs Hillan and Mrs Lockhart. Today is International Families Day and whilst we can’t spend time with our extended families at the moment, I thought it would be a good opportunity to spend quality time with the grown ups in your house. Maybe you could go on a walk together, watch a movie or play a board game. The Morrison family like to play frustration and it can get quite competitive!!

Maths

This week we are going to explore the different units of weight. Can you think why this is important to learn and which jobs would use measurements such as kg and g? Read the powerpoint that explains different units of weight and I have  attached a challenge sheet, where you could bake something at home and record the different units of weights used. Enjoy!!

T-S-3328-Maths-Intervention-Weight-Unit-PowerPoint

Measuring challenge

Science

We are going to explore food webs and how they can show the link between different food chains. Watch the following clip and then I have attached instructions on how to make a food web mobile. Have fun!!

Practical food webs

Fitness Friday

I hope you are all managing to keep fit and well during your time at home. Remember there are lots of different ways to keep fit such a walking, running, yoga and going for a bike ride. I hope you have managed to complete your fitness diary challenge that I posted a few weeks ago. If you can, please send a copy of your fitness record to the school email and I will access them from there.

Have a great weekend and I will check in with you all next Friday!

Numeracy

Yesterday, we worked on finding half of numbers. How did you work it out? Remember, a half means splitting an object into 2 equal parts. Today, I would like you to use the same resources as yesterday, but this time you are going to try and find a quarter of the numbers below. Can you remember how many equal parts you need to split an object into to find a quarter?

  • 4
  • 8
  • 12
  • 16
  • 20

Discuss your strategies with someone at home. How many equal groups did you split the numbers into?

Reflections

It’s reflection day! Use the template to reflect on your week of learning. Once you have finished your reflections, think about all the things you have learned in the past 3 weeks. Have you noticed progress in your learning? Maybe you are more confident with number work, you have learned a new sound or maybe your handwriting has improved? Think of at least 2 improvements you have made and share this with your family members!
