Good morning everyone!
Hope you are all well. Here is a story for you to listen to today from home.
Hope you enjoy it.
Remember please just do what you can with your home learning and I will look forward to seeing you all back in school on Friday.
Miss McDermott
Hello everyone
I do hope that you are all well and have had a lovely summer.
I am very excited about seeing you all later this week back at school and being able to read stories again to real children and not in front of a camera! Here is a new story that I had ordered a quite few weeks ago now and I thought might help you practise your listening skills – which will be really important whichever class you are in!
Enjoy the new story and of course the last few days of the holidays.
See you soon!
Miss McDermott
Hello everyone,
Here is the link to the last Story Time from Home.
Thank you for watching the Story Time From Home videos which I originally was going to make just for my own class but thought it would be nice to share with all the P1-3 children.
I know that lots of you have heard me read these stories before so it has been lovely to hear that you have still been watching the videos. Thank you for all your kind messages – it has been so nice to hear from you and know that you are doing well.
Please enjoy your summer holidays and take care to stay safe. I look forward to seeing you all safely back in school soon.
Miss McDermott
Hello P2/1
It’s just a short message today to say well done for all your hard work over the last term when you have not been able to come in to school. I know that it has not been easy for you or your grown ups but you have all done your best.
Thank you for watching the Story Time From Home videos which I originally was going to make just for you but thought it would be nice to share with all the P1-3 children.

I would also like to say a big thank you for the lovely gifts and cards that I have received – especially all the cat themed ones!
Please enjoy your summer holidays and take care to stay safe. I look forward to seeing you all safely back in school soon.

Hello boys and girls,
Here is the link to Thursday’s Story Time from Home.
Today’s story is all about a rather naughty cat which is something I know lots about.
I do hope you enjoy it.
Have a nice day and hopefully the sun will keep shining and you will all get outside to play.
Miss McDermott 
Hello everyone
I do hope that you are enjoying the lovely weather and that it stays with us.
Below is a link to a short video and some advice from CBeebies about staying safe in the sun that you might want to look at.

Here is also a link to an animated story about George The Sun Safe Superstar which you could watch too. It only lasts about 5 minutes.

Today is the second last Story Time from Home. You won’t be surprised that I have chosen a story about a naughty cat for today!
My naughty cats aren’t in the video – they are outside enjoying the nice weather too!
I hope you all have a great day and if you are going outside – remember your hat and your sunscreen!
Miss McDermott
Hello everyone!
Welcome to the link for the 60th Story Time from Home.
Today’s story is all about a boy who gets stuck on the moon. It’s another of my favourite stories even if it is a bit silly! I do hope you enjoy it too.
Miss McDermott
Hello P2/1,
I hope that you are all well and still trying to do some activities from our home learning plan even though there are only a few days now until the holidays.Here is the link to the 60th Story Time from Home! It is all about a boy who gets stuck on the moon!
Hopefully the weather will get a bit better and you’ll all be able to get out more and play. I have been back working in our school all week so I know that it hasn’t been very nice in Linlithgow at all. Do remember to give me a wave or say hello if you see me!
Miss McDermott
Hello everyone,
Thank you for all the messages yesterday to let me know that you’ve started on the Health and Wellbeing and Fitness Challenges. This is a great way to end the final term even though it is sad that we can’t be doing them together.
I hope you enjoy’s today’s story which is set in school and all about a teacher who falls in love even though she has some unwelcome visitors. You will need to watch the video to find out more and to see another appearance by Tufty!
Below is a link to a very short video appearance by Cleo who as you know is much more camera shy than Tufty!
Remember you can still watch any of the other Story Time from Home videos that you have missed.
Have a nice day.

Have a good day and thank you again for continuing to watch the videos.

Hello P2/1
I hope that you are all well and had a nice weekend.
This is our last week of home learning before the summer holidays and I am very proud of how well you have all been doing.
Here is the link to Monday’s Story Time From Home. There is no special theme this week as there is no writing activity. I have chosen all the stories just because I like them and I hope you will like them too. Remember, if you missed any of last week’s stories you can still go back and watch them.
It has been good fun making the videos but it not the same as reading stories in class and this is one of the main things I am looking forward to about going back to school – after seeing and chatting to all the boys and girls again!
Please do stay in touch this week before the holidays begin and let me know how you are getting on.
Miss McDermott
Hello everyone,
I hope that you had a good weekend.
I can hardly believe that it is the last week of term and the last week for Story Time at Home.
There is no special theme this week. I have chosen all the stories just because I like them and I hope you will like them too. Remember, if you missed any of last week’s stories you can still go back and watch them too.
I am sure that lots of you will know this story – it really is disgusting and I do feel sorry for the poor badger. But like lots of stories it does have a happy ending.
Have a good day and if you’re having a sandwich for lunch, I do hope it’s a nice one!
Miss McDermott
Hello everyone,
Friday at last!
Here is the link to the last Story Time From Home for this week. It isn’t really about keeping healthy today but more about something lots of you have been mentioning in your messages – wobbly teeth!
The P2 teachers have told me they have been getting lots of messages about wobbly teeth too. Cleaning and looking and after your teeth is a very important part of keeping healthy. Mrs Boyle shared this funny video with her class earlier in the week about how to clean your teeth properly. It has a super song that I think you might like too. Click on the link below to see it.
There will be lots more health and fitness ideas on our home learning plan for next week that will get you being active so make sure that you have a nice, restful weekend!
As it’s Friday, please remember to check Twitter later on today for this week’s Awesome Achievers.

Hello boys and girls
Here is the link for the last Story Time From Home for this week.
It’s all about a boy with a wobbly tooth which I know most of you all have experience of!
Hope you enjoy it!
Miss McDermott
Hello boys and girls
Here is the link for Thursday’s Story Time From Home which once again has a keeping healthy theme.
You might have heard me read this story if you have been in my class but it does have an important message and sometimes it is nice to hear stories more than once.
I hope you are all keeping well and still managing to do some home learning for your grown ups and teachers too!
Miss McDermott
