Hello P1!  We hope you had a lovely weekend.

Ms Boyes posted a picture of daffodils on the blog a couple of weeks ago.  Did you get their name right?

Ms Boyes took a picture of these flowers in her garden- can you find out what they’re called?

Here is our new Grid for this week:

The Great Science Share – Week 2

How did you get on last week? Did you get a chance to listen to and identify the birds around you?

I’ve been trying to talk to the wood pigeon that sits on my roof – coo – COO – coo – coo – coo – coo, (yes I think being at home is making me slightly coo – coo.)

This week we are celebrating the 200th birthday of The Royal Astronomical Society which should inspire you to think about space, the universe, stars and planets.  What are the questions you want to investigate this week?

How is a meteorite formed?

Will we ever be able to live on other planets?

What would a world without gravity be like?

What did the Hubble Space Telescope see on your birthday?

Can you make a rocket at home?

Is there something else you would like to investigate or make?

 

Share your investigations with me on your Teams page or email them into school. You can write, draw, take pictures of what you have done, make a poster, anything you like.

Have a look on The Great Science Share website if you’d like some other ideas and resources:

Have fun stargazers!

Collins Big Cat Reading

We are delighted that we now have access to Collins Big Cat Reading scheme.

Reading is so important to your child’s development. We would encourage everyone to try read a little every day, especially if you are finding it a challenge to get your child to complete work at home.

This is a whole school reading programme that provides support for primary reading.

Our pupils will be able to access hundreds of high quality fiction and non- fiction banded books by award- winning authors and illustrators.

There are also activities at the end of each book and resources for you to try if you wish.

Each book is read aloud but if your child would prefer to read by themselves click on the pause button.

Your child’s teacher will advise a colour of level for your child to start reading.

Please adapt this if necessary to suit your own child’s reading ability.
