Friday again! I can’t believe how fast the time is going. I hope you have all had a lovely week. It’s a shame about the weather but i’m keeping my fingers crossed it will improved over the weekend.

Here are the answers to the Fairy tale houses. Did you guess them correctly?

Have you made one of your own?

This weekend my boys and I are going to watch a Disney movie on Disney plus. There is so much choice though, so it might take us a while to decide. Do any of you have Disney plus?

I hope you have a lovely weekend.

Take care and stay safe. Missing you and so proud of you all!

Mrs Chisholm

It is Friday again.

I was in school yesterday and all the bright rainbows made me smile. They are all so different and so colourful. It was strange being there when it is so quiet. It made me realise how long it has been since I have seen you all and how much I miss everything about school life, mainly all your smiles, stories and cuddles.

I hope that you have a lovely weekend, fingers crossed the sun shines on us. I thought that I would leave you with an update on my kitten that joined our family just before all this happened. He keeps us all busy and makes us laugh everyday. He doesn’t like sleeping but he does like adventures in the garden. This week he has learned to copy our big cat Flynn and can jump up the fence. Flynn wasn’t very happy as this was his peaceful place. Ace is a bit of a monkey and is keeping us all on our toes.

Happy weekend everyone,

From Mrs Menmuir and Crazy Ace.

Good morning, everyone.

Today is Friday.   I hope you have all had a lovely week and are looking forward to the weekend.

Mr Tickle was the first Mr Men character created by Roger Hargreaves, inspired by his son, Adam, who had asked him what a tickle looked like.

This is what a tickle looks like!

Watch out, you never know where Mr Tickle may be!

Have a lovely day and a super weekend.

Good morning everyone,

I hope you have had a nice week and are looking forward to the weekend. Are you going to do anything nice?

I was talking to my godson the other day (he is nine years old and goes to school in Edinburgh) and he told me about a few science experiments he has done at home lately, so I asked him how to do his favourite one and here it is, for you to do at home if you want to, just for fun!

 Make your own lava lamp

You will need:

a glass

water

veg oil (or similar!)

salt

optional: food dye

Method

1. Half fill your glass with water.
2. Add a few drops of food dye if you like and swirl it in.
3. Now add oil to the glass until it is about 3/4 full (ask an adult to show you what that looks like.)
4. Take a tablespoon of salt and drop it in all at once. Can you see anything happening?

What happens is that the salt is heavier than the water, so when you pour salt on the oil, it sinks to the bottom of the mixture, carrying a blob of oil with it. In the water, the salt starts to dissolve. As it dissolves, the salt releases the oil, which floats back up to the top of the water. This creates an effect a bit like a lava lamp!

I hope you enjoy exploring this science activity if you choose to try it.

Have a great weekend when it comes,

Take care,

Mrs Jamieson

Good Morning Primary 2B,

I hope you are all well and enjoying the activities on the blog.

This week we are learning about fairytales. I have found this funny story I thought you might like to listen to.

https://www.freechildrenstories.com/the-atrocious-fairytale-1

When the princess goes missing, the king asks the greatest hero in the land to save her. But what help is a hero who’s afraid of butterflies? Follow this tale of a tooth-brushing dragon, a cookie-baking villain, and a misfit princess, who stumble their way to a most atrocious ending you have to read to believe

Can you find out what the work atrocious means? If you have time you could write a better ending to this story? Mrs Boyle and Mrs Mills would love to read them or if you want  just enjoy listening to the story.

I also want to share some of the fantastic work you have been sending.

Take Care and have a lovely weekend

Mrs Boyle
