Topic

We have been learning about our 5 Senses and last week we were exploring our Sense of Sound. We worked with our talk partners and used recyclable materials to create our own musical instruments. See if you can make an instrument at home and bring it into school with you when we return.

 

RME – As part of our learning in class we have been learning about Bible Stories. Do you have a bible at home? If you do read a story from the Bible.

 

#SPSSnowDay Number 3

Good Morning P6

Despite the bad weather preventing us getting to school, we can still continue our learning at home.

  • You can continue to work on allocated Snow Day activities on Education City.  Why not explore some of the other curricular areas too?
  • You could also log on to Sumdog or play some games on Top Marks for further Maths and Numeracy practise.
  • Continue to read your novels for our First Minister’s Reading Challenge and if you have your passport at home remember to add any books you finish.
  • Find out more about your favourite author – e.g. when and where were they born?;  have they always been an author?;  who or what inspires them to write?;  what other books have they written if any?; what other interests do they have?.
  • Create a poster or factfile with the information you gather.  Why not use ICT and upload your work to Teams or Yammer?

Be creative, use your imagination and have fun!

Don’t forget to upload your photos #SPSLovestoRead, #SPSSnowDay

 

Another #SPSSnowDay

Happy World Book Day!

All P6 pupils should continue to access the variety of Numeracy, Reading and Spelling activities allocated in the Classwork tab of Education City.  The allocated activities can be accessed by clicking on the Snow Day folders, but please explore some of the other areas of the curriculum and activities too.

Since we are not at school to celebrate World Book Day please also visit the website www.worldbookday.com and try out some of the fun activities on here.

It would also be great to see everyone get a little creative in celebration of the the day and send pictures of you reading somewhere a little different.  We had some great examples in the snow yesterday – can we add some more today?  Why not create something in the snow related to one of  your favourite novels or characters?  Or if you’d rather be warm indoors how about creating a model, painting a picture or even baking and decorating a cake along the theme of your chosen book?

We’d love to see your ideas so don’t forget to tweet #SPSSnowDay #SPSLovestoRead

World Book Day 2018

This year we are inviting all children to get creative in celebration of World Book Day 2018.

Since we have already dressed up as our favourite characters for Book Week Scotland, we decided to do something different this time.

Children are being given the opportunity to come to school wearing a t-shirt or hat (or both) that they have designed and created.  This can be based on a book or book character of their choice.

Our hope is that this will encourage children to talk about their chosen story or character with their friends and peers across the school.

Whilst we encourage as many children as possible to take part, the activity is not compulsory and we do not wish to cause families any unnecessary expense. Please make use of old t-shirts etc and recycled materials that you already have at home so that no cost is involved.
