Grow Your Own Tomotatoes

Wednesday 13th May 2020

Over the past few weeks I have been growing my own vegetables.  Here is a picture of my Veg Trug where I am growing lettuce, onions, shallots, kale, beetroot and spinach.

Why not have a go at growing your own veg. Next time you slice a tomato in half, put the seeds on a kitchen towel and allow them to dry for a few days.  Once the seeds are dry, plant them one to a pot in a sunny spot and water every day.

Primary 1 and P2/1 Music task

Hi Primary 1 and 2/1

Hope you are all well and staying safe at home. I have uploaded a music task for you to try to with a simple song called See Saw. It is very similar to See Saw Glasgow town we use during singing games so do not get confused with the different rhythms!

  • First  – think about clapping a steady beat and signing along.
  • Then  – try move on to clapping the rhythm by using the syllables of each word ( 1 beat slow or 2 half beats quick)
  • Finally – use the worksheet to cut and stick or draw in the correct note rhythms.

Remember – 1 line=crotchet=1 image    2 lines bridge=quaver= 2 small images

Have fun,

Mrs McLachlan

PS I have uploaded a word document with instructions and visuals to support!

Primary 3 Music task

Hi Primary 3

Hope you are all well and keeping safe at home! I have uploaded a music task for you to try. Use your knowledge of musical notes and Kodaly to clap or play out the word syllables. See if you can match them to the correct note name and Kodaly syllable rhythm. I will attach a Kodaly poster to support you!

Remember:

1 beat/clap = crotchet= ta

half beat/2 quick claps = quaver= titi

 

Have fun,

Mrs McLachlan

The Maths Factor

Good Morning everyone,

If you fancy a little change from Sumdog, this is another Maths resource for you to try out while the school is closed.  It normally costs £2 per week, but Carol Vorderman and Pearson are very kindly letting you have it for FREE just now.  Mrs Carr’s daughter loves it and I think Mrs Brearley will be very excited about it too! All the activities are suitable for children aged from 4-12 years.  If you  set up an account a password will be sent to you and then you can start playing straight away. Go on, what are you waiting for?

The Maths Factor

Have fun,

Mrs Meek, Ms Suen and Mrs Carr

P1 and P2/1 Numeracy/Maths

Hello boys and girls,

Take a look at these video clips below.  In class we have already been learning the days of the week and would have been moving on to learning about the months of the year. This song will help you to remember the order they are in.

 

We have also included a clip from one of Mrs Carr’s favourites – Jack Hartmann.   He is singing a song to remind us all about about Dot Patterns, Tens Frames and Finger Patterns.  I think this could become one of Mrs Brearley’s favourite clips too…..

 

Enjoy!!

Mrs Meek, Mrs Carr and Ms Suen are missing you all very much.

Primary 4 Music task

Hi Primary 4

Hope you are all keeping safe and well. I have uploaded a musical stave note reading worksheet for you all to try. Remember to revise the placement of each note on the stave using the F.A.C.E (on the line) and EveryGoodBoyDeservesFun (between the line) method or using the Music stave and notes poster. The activity suggest colours for each note but see if you can colour code them like our glockenspiels instead and work out the note letter from each colour i.e.

C is red, D is orange, E is yellow, F is green, G is Blue
