Circle Time

Good morning!

Here is our circle time routine if you would like to do your own circle time in the mornings! 🙂

  • We sing our Good morning song (see yesterday’s blog post!)
  • We then say Good morning to each other
  • We sing the Days of the week song (see Amy’s silly video!) and choose our symbol for the day

  • After that we will sing our Months of the Year song (see video) and share which month it is!

 

  • Then it’s time for our weather song and choosing the symbol!

  • We sometimes also discuss our feelings and emotions and choose how we feel that day

  • And finally, time for a movement song! Here are some favourites of the Silver class:

 

 

Have a lovely morning everyone!

Good Morning Blue Class 🙂

Today the story will be your favourite – Groovy Joe ice cream and dinosaurs.  You can sign up to vooks now for a free month trial for lots of animated books here https://www.vooks.com/ to watch Groovy Joe or you can watch it below on youtube.

 

Sign of the Day

Don’t forget to be practicing the sign of the day – if you want to send me a video then feel free

Fiddly Fingers

Today why don’t you make some playdough (if you can – recipe in home learning pack) and have a dough disco – practicing pinchng, squeezing, rolling – maybe you can make a model of something.

If you can’t do this then why not help mum or dad use the clothes pegs to hang up the washing.

Daily Challenge 

Today your challenge is to set the table for yourself and your family with with as much or ittle help as needed.  Make sure everyone has a cup/glass, plate, knife, fork and a spoon if needed.

 

Have a lovely day everyone and hopefully see you soon

I think I am Mr Topsy – Turvy because everything feels a bit different today.

How are you today? Send me a reply with which Mr Man or Little Miss you think you are?

The weather where I live is cloudy

The subjects on your suggested timetable today are PSD, PE and ICT, break time, story, sign of the day, fiddly fingers, lunch and then gardening and HWB. Why not stay on Glow and try some of the activities suggested by your teachers. Remember to hit reply and let us know how you are getting on.

I’ll be back again soon with some ideas for a story and for fiddly fingers.

See you soon, Sarah

 

 

 

Literacy

Good morning everyone,

Hope you are all well and keeping safe.

Please continue to work through the activities in your pack that was sent home last week. I will get additional Language activities to you a.s.a.p.

Those of you who have outstanding work to complete for your National Qualifications (Language & Communication) – this was sent home last week in your packs. Please complete these activities and keep them safe. You can bring them to school when we all return – I will require this paperwork to file, as evidence for the SQA, so it is important.

Good luck and get in touch if you are unsure about anything.

If you do not have any NQ work in your pack – you can relax – you have completed your coursework. Well done!

Thank you all for your hard work in Language!

Take care and enjoy your learning from home. I will be in touch soon.

Laura Leathem (Language & Communication Teacher)
