PE Home Learning – 22nd June

Good morning everyone,

For PE this week, we will be taking part in the Youth Sport Trust’s National Sports Week. There are five different categories of activities and challenges. You can pick what categories and what activities you take part in. I recommend doing at least one activity a day as well as getting outside for walks, jogs, cycles or scoots.

We hope it will be sunny on Wednesday 24th June when you can come along and collect some of your work  or anything that you have left behind in school. We will be in the playground from 12 noon until 2pm. Please don’t worry if you can’t make it. There will be an opportunity to collect things after the holidays in August.

You have  all been amazing over the past few months and we have really missed you. Thank you to everyone who has sent us photos of all the fantastic things you have been doing at home. Well done!

We have loved teaching you all and hope you have fun with the activities on the final home learning grid.

N-P1 Transition Task

N-P1 Transition Task – Final Week

It was lovely to meet many of you last week for our P1 Transition Visits 🙂  We hope you enjoyed spending some time in your classroom and meeting your teacher. 
Please see information and links below for this weeks transition activities. These are the last transition activities before the Summer holidays.
The story this week is called ‘The Rainbow Fish’ by Marcus Pfister.   
At the beginning of the story, the rainbow fish doesn’t have very many friends but by the end of the story, he has learned to share and has lots of friends.
Can you draw a picture of one of your friends?   Can you write your name and their name too?
You could try drawing a picture of the beautiful rainbow fish or if you have paints at home you could use them to make a finger painting.  Maybe you could cut shiny materials or pages from an old magazine and stick them onto paper in the shape of a fish.
Please click on the link below to listen to the story of ‘The Rainbow Fish’.  We hope you enjoy it 🙂
The rainbow fish has so many colours!   The link below is a favourite song of ours in Primary 1.  How many colours do you know?  We hope you enjoy the song.

It’s a colors song for young children. This song was written and performed by A.J. Jenkins. Video by KidsTV123. Copyright 2018 A.J.Jenkins/KidsTV123: All rights reserved. This is an ORIGINAL song written in 2018 – any copying is illegal. For MP3s, worksheets and much more: http://www.KidsTV123.com kids songs song for children Chords Capo 3rd …

Parents, the booklet attached below is by Axel Scheffler.   It was written together with Professor Graham Medley (Professor of Infectious Disease Modelling), Head teachers and Child Psychologist Dr Sarah Carman.   It is an accessible booklet which can be read in parts or all at once.  We hope it is useful to you and your family. Please click on the link below to access the booklet.
These Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler poems (in the link below) show familiar characters social distancing.  You may like to share them with your children.
Have a great Summer.  All the P1 team are really looking forward to seeing you in August!

P2 Home Learning Grid

Happy Monday everyone!

We hope you have had a lovely weekend and have enjoyed some of the beautiful weather we have had. Here you have the last home learning grid of Primary 2. Thank you to all of you for your hard work and your efforts during this time. We know how difficult it can be when learning at home but you have done a fantastic job and it is lovely to see you all doing fun activities at home with your families.

Enjoy your last week of Primary 2 and we look forward to seeing some more of the activities you are doing throughout the week.  We also look forward to seeing some of you in school this week if you are able to make it on Thursday for a catch up between 12 – 1:30pm  (see box on grid.)

The only other attachment you will need this week is the Spelling words which includes revision of magic e/CVC words. There is also another copy of the resilience alphabet attached if needed.

Have a great week:)

Home Learning and Fun in P2M

Good afternoon everyone,

I hope you have had a great week and have had fun at home with your families. Thank you to those who are still sending photos of home learning and other activities you have been doing. It is lovely to see so many people still working hard on their learning and I have also enjoyed seeing other activities you are doing at home. Here are a few examples from this week.

Farah has enjoyed working through the resilience alphabet. F has been her favourite so far. This is a great “to do list” of fun activities you can do at home. It looks like you managed to do all these activities throughout the week. Well done!

Your rainbow vegetables are growing so much. You look very proud of your hard work and you should be. This is a great way to demonstrate sustainable living. Well done for all your hard work.

Hudson has also been very busy and working hard this week. He sent a photo of a bird feeding table he made with his dad in the garden. It looks great and he was very proud of himself. Well done Hudson!

Have a great weekend everyone! One week to go until the Summer holidays.

NURSERY – Fun and Learning at Home

Good Morning Everyone,

We hope you have all had a good weekend.

Keeping In Touch

We have enjoyed seeing your new photo’s on your Learning Journals, thank you for keeping in touch.  Since Covid-19 has had an effect on our lives and home learning began, you have responded and risen to this challenge amazingly by continuing to keep your little one’s minds active with fun learning experiences, invaluable life skills and lots of fresh air and exercise, which is so important for their health and wellbeing.

The Learning Journals have proved to be a great resource helping us to remain contacted with our families – we are very proud to announce that so far we have received over 464 posts from families keeping us updated with their child’s learning and progress.  Thank you so much for this, we are very proud of all our little ones and everything they do.  Please continue to keep in touch, this not only helps to build and maintain relationships between families and our Early Years Team it also gives us an understanding of your child’s experiences and how they have developed and coped over these last few months helping us to support them further when they return to nursery.

Sports Day at Home

Did you make your own Medal?  We hope you rewarded yourself for trying hard – you deserved it!

Our own little learner organised her sports day independently at home for her family to participate in and look at the fun they had. Well done – what a star! We are very proud of you.

Well done to everyone for trying this at home, we are so proud of you all.

Cycling

Have you had fun staying active? We have enjoyed looking at all the photo’s you have shared with us and many have been outdoors exploring Calderwood and Almondell on bikes, scooters and foot.

Another little learner of ours has shared his amazing cycling achievements, what a star!

Encouraging your little one to cycle or scooter promotes many learning experiences whilst having fun.

  • Moving at different speeds, levels and directions and understanding speed in simple terms.
  • Maintaining balance when moving.
  • Developing knowledge and understanding of what a quality movement looks like and feels like.
  • Starting and stopping quickly and understanding speed in simple terms.
  • Learning how to stay safe with using equipment safely and being aware of roads, traffic cyclists and pedestrians.
  • Developing an awareness of self and an increasing self-reliance in dealing with new situations and new learning.

 

West Lothian Libraries

Information from West Lothian Libraries to share with our families.

As we approach some lockdown restrictions being eased and your services resuming in some way I am contacting you to advise about the digital resources we have available free to children who are members of West Lothian libraries.  I would be grateful if you could share this information with parents and carers please.

Every child in West Lothian can and should be a West Lothian library member and we endeavour to engage with and register as many children as possible as part of the ECALM initiative.  However, if a child is not already a library member and their parents/carers are interested in their child becoming a library member then they can simply complete the online application here: http://bit.ly/Join-WL-libraries they will then be sent their child’s membership information and will have access to our digital resources and all of our libraries when we reopen.

During the lockdown we have significantly increased our collection of children’s e-Books and e-Audio books.  These can be accessed here: https://bit.ly/WLlibebooksChildren

We also have also purchased e-Books and e-audio books which allow multiple downloads, so there are no waiting lists for these.  The latest addition is Flying Fergus, The Great Cycle Challenge by Sir Chris Hoy and this can be accessed here: https://bit.ly/FlyingFergusTgcc    

The e-audio books are particularly good for younger children providing them with their own personal story times, often with famous actors or even the authors themselves narrating.

If you require any assistance on the use of these resources or library membership applications please do not hesitate to contact me. Email: helene.rennie@westlothian.gov.uk

 

Hopefully this week’s weather and our summer ahead will continue to provide lots of opportunities to get outdoors with your little one and enjoy the benefits of fresh air and exercise.  Please continue to share your fantastic photos, news and everything that makes you so very proud of your little learners as much as we are.
