Home learning in P3/2C

Good morning P3/2C,

Hope you and your families are doing well this week and you have been able to enjoy completing some of your home learning grid activities.

Thank you for sending in more of your home learning this week. It is always great to see what you have been learning about at home. Some of the photos of your illustrations of JK Rowling’s new story ‘The Ickabog’ have been wonderfully imaginative.

Here are just some of the examples of home learning that have come in:

 

Have a lovely weekend and take care of yourselves,

Home Learning in P2M

Hello everyone,

I hope you and your families are well and have enjoyed taking part in some of the Health Week activities this week.  Well done if you have taken part in the virtual Sports Day and earned points for your house. Thank you for all the home learning you have sent this week. It is lovely to see so many people working so hard during lockdown. You should all be so proud of yourselves! I am very proud of you. Here are some more examples of your fantastic home learning.

 

You used numbers on your magnetic easel to calculate how many days you have left until Primary 3. This is fantastic addition and subtraction Phoebe. Well done for choosing a creative way to practise Numeracy.

A few weeks ago, you used your toys to create your own enchanted woodland. This is so creative and looked like you had lots of fun. Well done!

 

After watching a “Let’s Go Live” episode with Maddie Moate and Greg Foote, you used your learning to create your own volcano model. This looks amazing and I can see you worked very hard on it. You look so proud of yourself and you should be. Well done!

A few weeks ago, you created this lovely poster to show your support for our fantastic NHS. I hope you displayed this proudly because you did a great job. Well done!

Keep sending me examples of your learning Primary 2. I really enjoy seeing all your learning and the interesting things you have been doing at home. Thank you to everyone who has been sending home learning so far. Have a lovely weekend.

NURSERY – Sharing Home Learning

We would like to thank our families who are posting photo’s and keeping in touch through Home Learning on Learning Journals.  It’s lovely to hear what our children and families have been doing during lockdown.  East Calder Nursery Team are missing each and every one of our fabulous children and seeing little snippets of their learning and fun at home keeps us smiling!  It keeps us interacting and building our shared partnership and it’s an effective way of communicating and asking for advice if you need it.  Our Team will continue to be here to share advice, support and fun learning to all our families. Our Fun Learning at Home ideas and suggestions are posted on our Nursery Blog every week on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

If you are having difficulty using Home Learning please follow the instructions below

 

How to keep in touch on Learning Journal’s

There is a ‘Home Learning’ button on your child’s Learning Journal. This means you can share all your fun and learning with the nursery staff while recording it on their personal profile.
This button is located on the left hand side of your child’s profile. It is a blue button called Home Learning, click on it and you will be able to add posts and pictures.

Keep up the great work P3R!

Thank you to everyone for sending me photos of all your fantastic work!

I was so impressed with those of you who joined in with the Great East Calder Primary school Run on Friday.

It was a hot day for running! Super effort!

What a great start to Health Week and I hope you will try out some of Mr Millar’s activities this week!

I am missing you all and love to see and hear about what you are doing at home.

Stay safe,

Mrs Robertson P3R
