Happy Easter P3/2C and P3R

Good afternoon P3R and P3/2C,

Hope you and your families are staying safe and well and you are able to get outside for your daily walk or just some fresh air.  We hope you have been able to access some of the home learning activities and enjoyed completing them. We would love for you to keep up with reading a variety of different books over the Easter break.

A few reminders of websites you can access for over the Easter holidays if you wish to:

  • Sumdog, which is available and there is a competition which starts today, Friday 3rd April, which all pupils are entered in. There are also a variety of games to play on this website including spelling and reading games which are available during the school closures.
  • Remember for a variety of games on different subject areas there is also Topmarks – https://www.topmarks.co.uk/
  • The Scottish Book Trust https://www.scottishbooktrust.com/ has lots of great resources to use with any reading book.
  • Also if you click on audible.com you can access free books through Amazon for a variety of age groups.
  • Another great link for reading is also https://www.freechildrenstories.com/

Science – International Space Station

Hello everyone!

One of the tasks you all had on your science grids was to go outside when it was dark and see if you could spot any stars or planets. If you time it well then you can also see the International Space Station flying over your head. I was lucky enough to spot it on Saturday night at around 8:30pm. I managed to take a video to share with you all. See if you can spot it! There are still opportunities for you to spot it yourself too, check the website at spotthestation.nasa.gov to see times of when it will be passing over where you live.

Happy star gazing!

Hello Primary 3!

Hello P3/2C and P3R!

We wanted to let you all know we have been thinking of  you and hope you and your families are all safe and well.

Well done if you have been managing to complete some of your tasks on your first week’s work grid.

You can see next week’s grid if you use the link below.

Home Learning 2 updated

 

We know lots of you have been improving your maths skills on Sumdog and we have set a challenge for each class for the next week.

If you like books and reading try –

Home

It’s great to have someone read a story aloud to you ..(we are missing that with you )……and you can read along with the subtitles. Try sharing a story with your family.

Other things that are help just now are making  sure you are managing to get outside for a bit and keep doing some exercise, and offer to help around the house…that will bring a smile to someone’s face!

Please keep checking the blog for information and we will post again next week.

Take care and stay safe.

Science Home Learning Grids

Hi everyone!

I’ve attached below a science grid for each level for you to do at home. Have fun with them (and make sure someone at home knows what you are doing!)

I’m looking forward to seeing how you get on.

Enjoy!

Mrs Beattie 🙂

Primary 7S and Primary 7/6L Home Learning Grid

Primary 7S and P7/6L,

Due to the issues we have encountered today using our class pages we are going to change the way we share your learning tasks. From Tuesday 24th March we will be using a grid (similar to your normal homework grid) for your learning for the whole week. Please complete as many activities as you can throughout the week.  Do not worry if you cannot access files on Glow this is due to high levels of users therefore your learning grid will be available here on the blog and emailed out to you also. You had a jotter issued last week, feel free to do your work in your jotter instead if you wish. You can still reach your teacher on your class TEAM page.

Back from the Holidays – P5

This week we have been busy trying to get back into a routine in P5.

We are starting a few new topics this term. Our IDL topic is all about the rainforest and in P.E we will be taking part in gymnastics and health and fitness. We have also started using the literacy box to help with our reading comprehension.

Today, we all took part in the beep test to assess our level of stamina/fitness before starting the block of lessons that Miss Beattie has prepared for us. This means that when we do the beep test again at the end of our fitness block, we can see if we have made any improvements.

We have also been learning about how to give effective and constructive feedback to each other. We know that making mistakes and receiving feedback about our work is to help us get better at a skill and to improve our work.

P5 have been given the choice of 4 Scottish poems. They should pick 1 of these poems and learn it at home, ready to recite to their class on Wed/Thurs of next week. There will be 2 winners who will get to recite their poem at the Scots assembly on the 24th January. Remember – think about voice, tone, expression and actions! Good luck.
