Walking Paper Horse

Tuesday 7th April 2020

Did you know that you can make a paper horse that actually walks all by itself?!! All you need is some paper, a ruler, scissors and a piece of wood or tray that you use as a sloping ramp. Click here for instructions (although you may need an adult to help with some of the trickier measuring and cutting.) Why not make a few and have races with your family!

Elmer

Saturday 4th April 2020

I love the Elmer stories and I thought that this was a brilliant ideas as to how you could make your own Elmer out of an empty milk carton. Even if you don’t have tissue paper at home I think it could work equally well by using paper from magazines or even material. If anyone manages to make their own Elmer e-mail me a picture and I will put it up on the blog! (morna.matthews@westlothian.org.uk)

Check in

Hello again Primary 3!

Before you go off and enjoy your Easter Holidays I thought I would share this lovely resource that Mrs Fairley shared with me! It is a wellbeing check in that you can use with someone at home or just if you want to do it by yourself. If you need some strategies or ideas to help you feel better if your not feeling great have a look at some of these.

Mrs Russell and I have been missing you all and really hope you are enjoying learning from home!

Have a fantastic Easter Holiday and take care!

Easter Break :)

Hello Primary 1, it is the last day of Term today!!!!

Mrs Carr, Mrs Meek and I would like to wish you a happy Easter and hope that you will take a good couple of days to relax and play!

We will be back on here again on Monday the 20th of April 2020 with a new learning grid!

Here is one little Art activity you can try out:

Crayon Mirror Image (Easter/Spring)

You will need:

paper
crayon
pencil

Fold a piece of paper in half.
Re-open and cover one side with a pattern using thick layers of crayon.
Fold the paper in half again so that the design is on the inside and at the bottom. On the outside, use a pencil to draw a design or picture. (You will need to press a little harder with your strong hand and fingers.)
The areas you fill in with pencil will life the crayon from one side of the paper to the other to give a mirror image!!

ENJOY! Feel free to send us a picture of it when you finished!

There are a lot of other activities on the blog! Explore the blog and see what interesting tasks you can find!

Spring Wreath

Hi Boys and Girls,

Happy last day of term, and Happy Easter Holidays! I hope everybody is looking forward to a well-earned rest over the next two weeks. If you’re looking for a nice craft activity that the whole family can join in with, how about making a Spring Wreath? All you need is egg cartons, glue, cardboard and paint! This is all a really great fine motor activity for strengthening little fingers. Have a look at this lovely example – https://ourpotluckfamily.com/egg-carton-wreath/?fbclid=IwAR3S6XINYja0eOZod0Zg4Xlz3UxC7CbxrHVfuHWMlt-njO1DK1t5TzUfTIw

Have fun making them – I’d love to see some finished examples. We’ll be making one in my house too!

Lockdown Diary – Easter Holiday Activity

Hi P.4 (and anybody else who fancies giving this a go)!

Today is the last day of the school term, so Happy Easter Holidays! I hope you all enjoy a well-earned break, it’s been a bit of a chaotic journey to this point hasn’t it?

If you are looking for something to do over the holidays, I found this great Lockdown Diary that you can do. It’ll be lovely to look back on in months and years to come when everything is back to normal. There’s a ‘print at home’ version, and an online version – just follow the link and read the instructions.
