Topic

Across the school we have been learning about Africa – so that siblings in different classes can share learning. Watch this clip on Life of the Maasi and think about why these mud huts would not be suitable in the UK?

Try making your own house with mud and sticks.

Primary 1 Monday 8th June

Hello Primary 1, we have reached week 10! I am very proud of how you are all doing! Not long till the holidays now!

I have attached this weeks learning Grid bellow

P1 HL grid 8th June

Here are some learning ideas for today…

Literacy

Do one of the Read, spell write cards from your HL pack. Remember to think about letter formation, finger spacing and staying on the line.

Numeracy

Select an activity from your number grid.

Making 10: how many ways can you make the number 10. Think of numbers you can add together. If you fancy a challenge you could try coming up with some subtraction sums that make 10. Remember you can use for ten frame or other small items to help you.

I have also added some number games to Education City for our learning this week. They include adding to 10 and counting in 10’s.

Art

Take a look at some of the work by a Scottish Artist called Steven Brown. Look at his bold use of colour!

Now take a look at the power point and try to draw your own highland cow in the style of Steven Brown. You will need paper and colours (pens, pencils or crayons). Or you could go digital and draw it on your ipad or computer device.

Steven Brown Step-by-Step Highland Cow PowerPoint

Enjoy your day Primary 1!

Primary 2/3 Monday 8th June 2020

Good Morning P2/3 another great week ahead of learning for you all.

Literacy – Spelling words

‘y’ words

by, my, try, cry

fly, spy, why, shy

flying, trying, crying, myself

Choose 4 of the words to carry out spelling activities and write sentences.

Look out for any ‘y’ words in your reading book.

Continue to practice tricky words.

Maths

We were allocated our on line Teejay Textbook last week and you all checked you could access it. So today we will go onto Dynamic Learning using the link I sent, Once on the site go to DL icon, click on it then on the 1a textbook. This will allow access to the textbook.

Use your jotter and remember to set your answers out neatly and well-spaced.

Measure p 144 and p145

Art

Slick Art

You may have heard the old saying “oil and water don’t mix,” and while that may be true, when you combine the two, some pretty and interesting images can be the result. In a wildlife setting, oil spills can upset the natural balance of an environment and cause a lot of trouble for the animals and plants that call a habitat home. So it’s probably best that the combination of the two should stay on the crafts table—and out of nature!

Or if the weather is lovely you could make some flower people like these.

Have a lovely day and you can always email your art pictures.

Practice writing and reading your numbers 1-50 and 1-100

Ask an adult to call out numbers for you to record on paper. Play pass the number taking it in turns to count on, you could practice saying the next two or three numbers.

A good game to help you practice is wack mole on ICT games. Put the setting to ‘going up in 1’s’ and select the number you want to start at. If you want to challenge yourself try setting it to counting backwards!
