Amazing home learning P3/2C
Hi P3/2C,
I hope you are staying safe and well.
Thank you for all of your wonderful home learning that you have sent me. I have been so impressed with all your effort and am excited to see what you send me next. Here are just a few examples.
Reminders:
- There is a national Sumdog competition which starts today and runs through until next Thursday.
- Big Cat Readers is a great resource with different levels of reading books for you to try with comprehension activities. You will find more details on the blog and on home learning grids.
If there is anything I can do to help, please get in touch by sending an email through the school office with the attention of the class teacher.
Have a lovely weekend,
Take care,
Miss Cameron

NURSERY – Fun and Learning at Home
Good Morning, hope you are all well 🙂
Here are some suggested activities to give a try.
Baking/Cooking – Do you prefer savoury or sweet? Well here is an option for both. Click Here for a link to Lucy’s granny’s delicious shortbread, highly recommended by Mrs Laing And Click https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/pizza-puff-pinwheels for a recipe to puff pastry pizza pinwheels.
Alexa Games – Do you have an Alexa in the house? Why not ask her to play some games with you and your family, here are some ideas L.I I can use technology to help me learn new things.
Stickman – Do you like the story Stickman? You could read the story (available on YouTube if you don’t have the book) and then go out a walk and collect sticks to make your own stick family. What size of sticks will you find, long, short, thick, thin, big, small? L.I I can compare size of everyday objects and can use correct mathematical language. L.I I enjoy listening to stories and sharing my thoughts and feelings.
Grow a sunflower – Measure it daily to see how tall it grows and record its progress in a notebook. L.I I am learning how to recognise numerals and use mathematical language in the correct context. L.I I am developing my pencil control.
Have fun and stay safe
