Good morning, it’s another lovely sunny and windy day!
We have found an activity which you might want to try using some recycling materials you may have at home to see which way the wind is blowing. If you don’t have any ribbon, try strips of material or cut strips of food bag packaging and attach them to the carton.
Wow! What a lot of messages yesterday! I am so glad to hear that everyone is geting on well and having a go at all the home learning tasks. The photos that you have been sending are fantastic and it is lovely that I can now see some of your lovely smiley faces again!
Here is the link to today’s dragon story and underneath it is a link to a youtube video about how to draw a dragon that you might want to try. We have used some of these videos in the classroom for drawing thistles and a Scottie dog. Remember it is a good idea to keep pausing the video as you draw.
It is a lovely sunny day here in Bathgate and hopefully it will be in Linlithgow too, so maybe you’d rather get outside and keep the dragon drawing for another day!
Today we are learning about symmetry. There are a few ideas on our weekly PowerPoint to have a look at, however, as the sun is shining I wonder if you can make a symmetrical picture in your garden using natural materials like leaves, stones and flowers. Find your line of symmetry and make sure that both sides are the same just like a butterflies wings. Send in any photos as we would love to see them.
What fun activities do you have planned for today? Share your ideas here or your parents can email me any work you’ve already completed. Looking forward to hearing from you all!
Good morning everyone. I hope you are all fit and healthy and had a good day yesterday in the sunshine. It was a lovely day for being outside in the garden or for going a family walk. When I was out walking with Mr Herbison we saw a beautiful butterfly. Have you seen any when you have been outside?
Today is a special day for someone – it is Queen Elizabeth II’s birthday! Do you know what age she is and can you work out which year she was born?
One of the things I miss most about school is our Check-in time when we have the chance to share our news with each other or just have a chance to say how we are feeling. I would love to hear how you are getting on and what you have been doing. If you are able, it would be good if you could get an adult to help you to send me a short message just so that I know you are well.
Welcome back to a new term. I am really missing you all.
I hope you have all had a lovely Easter break. Maybe you have been enjoying the sunshine or playing in the garden? I would love to know what you have been doing!
I have had a lovely Easter. I have been in my garden and have even been bouncing on the trampoline with my little boy! I have also been doing fitness programmes and dancing to keep healthy. I have been speaking with my family and friends on the phone. I also take shopping to my Mum and Dad because they cannot leave the house.
I hope you will send me some of your news or show me some of the things you have been doing too!
I hope you have all had a fun Easter holiday. I have had a lovely time with my family relaxing and spending time together. We are going to be posting some ideas of activities that you can do over the course of the week . For now, why not take part in Joe Wick morning workout which was live earlier this morning. It is a great way to start the day.
I hope you had a wonderful Easter break – a little bit different to normal I imagine, but I hope you all managed to have fun, to relax and to spend some time (in person or on the phone/internet) with friends and family.
I had a nice Easter doing lots of cooking, some drawing and a bit of decorating. Our dog, Bennie, has decided he likes sitting beside the window because he is quite nosy and likes to look into the garden to spy on any birds and cats. We have been enjoying the lovely Spring weather and all the new flowers near us, have you seen any nice signs of Spring? It seems to have arrived at last!
Here is a link to a fun pattern song that we like to dance to in P1B:
Perhaps ask an adult to skip the adverts. This song reminds me of all the fun we have together, and also it is fitting because we always say that in P1B, the B stands for brilliant and… totally bananas!!! I miss you all very much and can’t wait to hear about some of the learning and playing you are doing at home.
Welcome back to Term 4. I hope you all had a fun Easter holiday and managed to get outdoors and enjoy our lovely weather. How many of you managed to see beautiful daffodils dancing in the breeze?
I am missing all of you and I am looking forward to supporting you and your family with your learning this term.
Please use the Learning at Home Grid which is on our school website to see our suggested activities for the week. Also check our School Blog every day for updates. We are always interested in finding out how you are getting on and happy to support you in any way we can.
Have fun learning at home with family members and enjoy being outside. Remember – just do what you can.
Welcome back to term 4. I hope you have had a nice relaxing Easter break and ready to get started. I definitely enjoyed seeing the sunshine and eating a few Easter eggs. 😊
I have also enjoyed seeing all the beautiful rainbows in windows as we have been out for our daily walk.
Do you have one in your window? Why not share it with us. If you haven’t done one, maybe you could make one this week.
Be creative in your ideas.
Here is mine. 🌈
On your next walk, try to count how many rainbows you see!
Have a good first day back. Get in touch with any questions.
Welcome back to Term 4. I hope you have all had a good Easter and managed to get outdoors and make the most of our lovely weather.
Mrs Boyle and I are missing you all and are looking forward to supporting you and your family with your learning this term.

I hope you are staying safe and have had a fun holiday with your families. It would be really great to see some photos of any activities or work you have been doing at home. Post them here for us to see! This week’s P3 home learning files are on the school website and I’ve allocated everyone new games to play on Heinemann Active. Let me know if you’re enjoying the games and I can add more for you!
Welcome back! Here are a few things for you to try today.
Numeracy: Watch Miss McDermott’s post about measuring.
What things can you measure inside and outside? Record your measuring.
Who would need to measure things as part of their job? Can you name some things used for measuring?
Craft Challenge!
Can you make something useful from your old Easter egg boxes and packaging? Or try and make something from your recycling rubbish.
Daily Activity:
Make sure you get outside today for some fresh air. Go for a family walk, take out your bike, build a den in the garden, go on a bug hunt, do some accurate measuring or even help hang out the washing!
