You can make make lots of wonderful Art using some paint and your finger prints. Here are some ideas of things you could make:
Can you create finger prints using different colours?
All across the nation people have been creating pictures of Rainbows and sticking them to their windows in an effort to cheer people up. Here is a template that you may find useful.
You could try creating a tree for Pinewood. Click on the above link for a tree template.
Some Easter themed finger prints!
Enjoy!
Good morning all,
I hope you enjoyed movement Tuesday and are ready for your next movement challenge today?
Once again do what you can. Its important that the children enjoy moving around to the best that they can, whether its whole body movements or parts of the body.

I know that Gold Class have been learning all about water. Can you do a floating/sinking experiment today?
Look around the house and collect lots of different things that you are allowed to put in some water. Fill up the sink, bath or a box with water.
Before you put the things in the water – have a guess if it is going to float or sink. Put them in the water one at a time and see if you were right!
Don’t forget to take a photo of your experiment and send it to Lorna.
Good morning Group 11!
I posted a transition passport that you can work on last night. You could also try some of the following:
Movement (and PE): We are starting at 9 am with Joe Wicks. https://www.thebodycoach.com/blog/pe-with-joe-1254.html
Life Skills: dust the house, dishes in the dishwasher and fill the washing machine.
Literacy: Watch the following and write or talk about an amazing day out that you have had. http://takingflightfilm.com/

Signing: check Lorna’s sign of the day video.
Art: We are going to work with chalk today, either on paper or in the garden path if the weather stays dry. You can also visit the National Gallery. https://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/paintings/search-the-collection
Science: We are going to fill a basin with water and see which items float or sink.
HWB: we are going to call or video call the people we love because we miss them. Phone someone you love too.
Have a good day, Kirsty.
Can you find some tinfoil in your kitchen? Use paints, or make your own paints with food colouring mixed with yoghurt, or shaving foam.
Paint a picture of what you can see out of your window.
Here’s a story all about your hands – can you read it with an adult?

What special things can you do with your hands?
Good Morning. I hope everyone has a wonderful day.
Circle Time
Don’t forget to do a circle time (songs can be found on this link or start of blog) https://blogs.glowscotland.org.uk/wl/pinewoodschoolblog/2020/03/23/morning-circle-time/
Life Skills
Once you have completed your morning circle it’s time to get the day started and what better way to start the day than by helping to make breakfast! Maybe you can help your parents to make some toast? Can you spread the butter/jam by yourself primary 2? What shape are you cutting the toast in to? How many slices are there?
If you are feeling adventurous why not make some scrambled eggs? If you don’t like these then maybe you can help by pouring your own cereal.
Remember to help by setting the table and clearing away all the dishes afterwards. Let me see some photos of your breakfast 🙂
Below is a few ideas of other things you can do to help around the house over the next wee while.
P.E
For P.E have a look at the P.E tag or join in with Joe Wicks live or just dance on youtube.
Literacy
We will start by singing and signing the ‘abc song’. Join in with me below.
Remember we have been learning about the letter sounds ‘s’ ‘a’ ‘t’ ‘p’ ‘i’ ‘n’ through our letterland book. Now Nicole did want to read the stories to you but the book is in the classroom (silly me) but I will get it as soon as I can.
Practice your letter sounds today and you can use these letterland songs if you wish
Keep practicing these sounds throughout the week. Can you find any items around your house that start with the satpin letter sounds? Send me a picture if you find anything.
Practice writing these letters. You can use salt, paint, playdough, chalk, pen and paper, shaving cream or rice. Take a picture and show me – have fun with these activities.
EXTENSION TASK – challenge yourself… can you write some words beginning with either ‘s,a,t,p,i,n’ in any of the above materials or your name?
Hand Washing
At snack time, don’t forget to wash your hands. Can you help prepare a healthy snack for you and your family?
Story Time
Today why don’t you develop your listening skills and tune in to David Walliams reading one of his stories. Relax and shut off from the rest of the world and be immersed into the story. link found here https://soundcloud.com/harpercollinspublishers/the-worlds-worst-children-2-3/s-zHZPQlifKuV
Don’t forget to tune in with Lorna for sign of the day posted later today too – wonder what signs we will learn today.
Art
For art today I would like you to all make a rainbow picture to place in your window to brighten up a lot of people’s day, including mine. Let me see your beautiful rainbow pictures please.
Science
STEM CHALLENGE
I have emailed you all my STEM challenge grids and every day I am going to select one or two for you to choose from to complete and if you can tell me about the end results from the creative challenges or the STEM challenges. The most important thing is about having fun with this and talking about everything you are doing to develop language and higher order thinking skills.
TODAY’S CHALLENGE is about floating and sinking (see STEM Challenges Grid). Using the fruits and vegetables you have at home, predict which ones you think will float/sink – can you give reasons why? What will happen if you half it or take the skin off?
Daily Challenge
try this lego challenge (will post new challenge each day)
or why not challenge yourself and your family to learn some french like we have been doing in class.
HWB
Time to have a feelings check in with everyone in the family.
discuss what these feelings mean and what you can do if someone is in the blue, yellow or red zone. Maybe you can have a family sing song and dance. It may be a good idea to have a mindfulness session at this point too and relax for a bit, practicing some deep breathing.
