Hello Everyone

Hope you are all well and everyone is keep safe.

Here is a guide to Wednesday!

Circle Time – We start our circle time singing “hello – super simple songs” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVlcKp3bWH8

This is also the time we started to learn some Spanish. Leave you here some Spanish translations.

Good morning – “Buenos Dias”

Hello – “Hola”

How are you? – “como estas?”

We then talk about how we are feeling today (happy, sad, tired, and excited). We find how does the weather look like and what day it is – You can do your calendar book.

And we finish our circle time sharing the last day news – Feel free to share your news, by email, posting here on blog some videos, photos or comments. J

Literacy – Practice to write your name. Ask mum or dad to write it for you first with pencil and you can follow the lines with a pen. You can also use magnetic letters.

P.E. – go at PE section of the blog and choose one of the activities your PE teacher posted for you.

Story – Find a book of your choice and “read” it. Ask mum or dad to help you if you want to. Check if you are holding the book in the right position. Make sure you turn pages one at the time. Can you tell what do you see on pictures? What is your favourite character/ food / toy / image (depending on the book)

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

Art – Collect twigs and stones to make a picture with them (Take a picture)

Science – Do you know which solids sink or float in water? Collect some objects and find out. Follow the link to get a clear idea how to make it yourself

Hello everyone.  It’s David again!

Let’s start the day with our morning circle.

Don’t forget Lorna’s sign of the day!

On Wednesday mornings we have Music with Gordon.  Go to Categories and select music and scroll down.  It is Music with Gordon 27 April: Primary.

It seems a long time ago but on Wednesdays we have swimming with Graeme. Well we can’t go swimming at the moment but some of you might remember that when we were learning about Finding Dory I brought in a Wii game for us all to play – Endless Ocean.  Have a look below and swim in the Ocean (skip to 48 seconds).

I hope you enjoyed that.
