Reflection time

This week we are looking at nurtured.

There is a reflection sheet included in your home learning pack – please complete this today to bring to school when we get back.

Choosing time

How has your week been?

  1. Have you listened to your mum/dad/gran?
  2. Have you been kind to all?
  3. Have you been polite?
  4. Did you have fun?

For good listening, being kind and polite, and being helpful you will get 5 min for each day.

How many minutes is your choosing time?

Make a good choice!

Today take action and practice an act of kindness for someone in your house (say something nice; smile, make someone laugh, say thank, make a card, help with something).

Orange Class Friday 27th March

Good morning to the Orange Class!

As it is Friday we have assembly!

Primary Assembly 

Good Morning Every-one

Click on the link below this picture to see the power point for our NURTURE Assembly.  I have added the fischy music link for the ‘Welcome Song’ and the ‘We Can Make a Difference’ song below too (that’s all my tech skills allow at the moment – sorry!)

The signs are a little different from the Signalong we use in school, but it beats singing without the music!!

Hopefully I can learn how to improve this for next week!

Have a fab Friday!!

 

Here is our Friday assembly for this week (27.3.20)

 

Welcome Everybody – Fischy Music

Make a Difference – Fischy Music
